Nissan is offering two engine options on the Magnite including a 1.0L naturally aspirated motor and a 1.0L turbocharged petrol unit. The naturally aspirated engine comes paired to a manual transmission. Meanwhile, the turbocharged unit is offered with the X-Tronic CVT gearbox as optional.

Rivals

Tata Nexon has recently scored a 4-star rating at the Global NCAP. Thus, in terms of safety, even Nissan Magnite with a 4-star rating becomes a sensible option. Further, the sub 4 meter SUV rivals Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, Ford EcoSport, and Honda WR-V among others.
