Nissan Magnite Facelift Teased Again Ahead of India Launch, Shows Grille and Taillight Designs

The Nissan Magnite Facelift is scheduled to launch in India on October 4, 2024. However, before that, the automaker started releasing teasers for the SUV, to enhance its appeal. The most recent trailer provides a sneak peek of the grille and taillights, while the previous one revealed the new 6-spoke dual-tone alloy wheels. It appears that the SUV's grille design resembles the previous version, but earlier spy images indicate it may be larger. The taillights retain the same shape but feature upgraded interior LED lighting components. Though it is not confirmed as of now, the SUV is also likely to have reworked headlamps, modified bumpers (front and back), and new colour schemes. Read on for more details.
