By Nissan officially announced a voluntary recall for the Magnite in India. The recall is for the faulty door handle sensors on the front doors as units manufactured in November 2020 and December 2023 have been affected but the Japanese manufacturer hasn’t specified the number of units that come with the issue. The XE and XL variants of the Magnite come with this problem as this issue doesn’t affect the top-spec XV and XV Premium variants. The sensors on the front door will be replaced free of cost and it will be done at the official service centres of Nissan.
The Japanese manufacturer is working on the facelift version of Magnite as the company has commenced road testing of the new model. Earlier reports indicated that the design theme of the facelift model is expected to take inspiration from the global portfolio of Nissan. The front gets an updated grille with new LED headlamps and a new bumper while the changes to the side are limited to a new set of alloy wheels. The changes to the rear include new LED tail lamps along with an updated bumper. Nissan is expected to offer new colour options with Magnite facelift.
The interior is expected to get a major redesign as the infotainment system will be a bigger unit compared to the current system and a new software too. The instrument cluster is likely to come with a new design too for UI and it could be loaded with more features. Apart from this, Nissan will offer a sunroof with the Magnite as it is one of the missing on the compact SUV. Nissan Magnite is expected to come with the same engine as the current model with manual, AMT and CVT gearbox options as the launch is expected to take place next year.
