Despite being a major car brand globally, Nissan has not been able to grab a sizeable pie of the highly competitive and robustly growing Indian passenger vehicle market. The lacklustre sales performance have propelled Nissan to squeeze down its product lineup in India and now it sells only two models in the country, one being the smaller and affordable compact SUV Magnite, while the other is the premium offering X-Trail.

In such a situation the Nissan Magnite remains the best bet for the brand to stay in business, which is why the automaker is ready to introduce a facelifted iteration of the car. Here's all that we can expect from the upcoming Nissan Magnite facelift.
