Nissan Magnite: Enhanced role
With the discontinuation of the Nissan Kicks in April 2023, it’s the Nissan Magnite that has kept Nissan Motor India afloat since its launch in 2020. While the company has earlier announced its plans to have at least 5 percent of market share by financial year 2020-21, the story turned out to be something else. By FY24, the company’s market share in India had dropped to below 1 per cent. However, with a new strategy in place, the 2024 Magnite is targeted to be the catalyst for Nissan Motor India's revival.
The updated Magnite not only aims to regain momentum in the domestic market but also strengthens the company’s global presence. Since its debut, the Magnite has sold over 1.05 lakh units in India, averaging 3,000 units per month. On the export front, more than 35,000 units have been shipped to 17 right-hand-drive markets since June 2021.
