First-ever Nissan Magnite with Massive Aftermarket Rims is Here

The Nissan Magnite was launched as the most affordable compact SUV in India with an introductory price tag of Rs 4.99 lakh. Though the sub-Rs 5 lakh price tag is no more, the rest of the trim levels are still priced the same. It makes the Magnite one of the most value-for-money vehicles you can buy in India country. Compared to its direct segment rivals, it is cheaper by around Rs 1 lakh for the same equivalent variants and trim levels. Its affordable price tag, attractive design, and feature-loaded variants mean you should give it a second glance if you’re looking to buy a new compact SUV. Today we came across this brand-new Magnite getting a set of aftermarket alloys.

The pictures of this Nissan Magnite have been uploaded by big.wheel.s on Instagram. The compact SUV has been taken straight from the showroom to the aftermarket store for a set of new wheels. The top models of the Magnite come with 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels from the factory, but since this particular model is a mid-range variant, it comes with steel wheels. hence, the owner has decided to bin the stock wheels, replacing them with this set of silver multi-spoke 17-inch wheels instead. Other than that modifications are kept to a minimum, but the bigger wheels give the compact SUV a better stance.

The Nissan Magnite comes loaded to the brim with features like a multi-functional steering wheel, the centre-console gets an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with in-built Apple Carplay and Android Auto, a 7-inch TFT instrument console, and an around-view monitor display on the screen. It also gets a push-button start/stop system, power windows, automatic AC, rear AC vents, cruise control, etc. The higher models get extra features like a height-adjustable driver’s seat and a rear-seat armrest with 2 cupholders. Nissan is also offering an optional Tech Pack on the top models with even more creature comforts like a wireless charger, high-end speakers from JBL, an air purifier, ambient mood lighting, and puddle lamps.

Prices for the Nissan Magnite start from Rs 5.49 lakh for the base trim and goes up to Rs 9.89 lakh, ex-showroom. The Nissan Magnite is available with two powertrain choices, a 1.0 litre 3-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol which makes 72 PS and 96Nm of peak power and torque figures, respectively and is mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox.
