Why does this story matter?
Nissan had a strong comeback in the Indian market with the Magnite. It took the sub-4 meter SUV segment by the storm due to its aggressive styling, a tech-forward cabin, and a competitive price tag. The Japanese carmaker has delivered over 50,000 units of the vehicle and has received over one lakh bookings to date. The Red Edition is launched to celebrate this achievement.
