Nissan Magnite base XE trim converted to top-end variant

Nissan India launched their all-new compact SUV Magnite in the market last year. The sub-4 meter SUV quickly became popular among buyers for various reasons. One of the main reason behind its popularity is its price. When launched, it was the most affordable compact SUV in the segment. Even the fully loaded version with decent number of features costs under Rs 10 lakh, ex-showroom. The SUV became so popular that now there is long waiting period on the SUV depending upon the variant you choose. It competes with cars like Maruti Brezza, Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV300, Ford EcoSport and recently launched Renault Kiger in the market. Aftermarket accessories for Nissan Magnite have already started arriving in the market and here we have one such video where a base XE variant of Magnite has been modified into a top-end version.
