  • It rides a bit lower than the concept with less aggressive body cladding all around.

  • Expected to feature a 360-degree camera, connected car tech and sunroof.

  • Likely to be powered by 1.0-litre naturally aspirated and turbo-petrol options.

  • Expect prices to start from Rs 5.5 lakh (ex-showroom).

It's been a couple of months since Nissan unveiled the Magnite sub-4m SUV in concept form and we've only gotten glimpses of the production-spec model testing in extensive camouflage in India. Well now, leaked patent images reveal more on what to expect from the production-spec Magnite which isn't too different from the concept. It's slated to launch in 2021.

On the outside, the Magnite retains most of the concept's bold design elements, especially at the front with a large single-piece front grille, sculpted hood, sharp headlights, and 'L' shaped LED DRLs. But once you get towards the overall silhouette, that's where the differences lie. The SUV has a lower ride height than the concept which featured large fancy wheels. Also, the cladding has been slightly toned down. At the rear, the wraparound tail lights and integrated roof spoiler are retained with the bumper and cladding cleaner than the concept. It shares its CMF-A+ platform with the upcoming sub-4m SUV.

The interiors are yet to be revealed but the concept showcases a minimalistic yet funky layout. It's also set to be loaded with features such as cruise control, 360-degree camera and connected car tech. Expect more bits such as Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, climate control, and maybe even a sunroof. Safety kit could include around four airbags, ABS with EBD, and electronic stability control.

Under the hood, the Magnite could be powered by a 100PS 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a 72PS 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine seen in the Renault Triber. A standard manual gearbox and a CVT option for the turbo-petrol motor could be the gearbox options on offer.

The Nissan Magnite is likely to retail from Rs 5.5 lakh onwards. It will take on the likes of the.
