Nissan Magnite stands at the entry-point of sub-compact SUV segment in the Indian car market and has been a relatively successful model for the Japanese carmaker in a country where its performance has otherwise been lacklustre at best. Launched in the peak of Covid-19 pandemic - in October of 2020, the Magnite was billed as a make-or-break model for Nissan India and it managed to create inroads courtesy factors like aggressive pricing, acceptable looks and decent feature list. Four years on, the Magnite still fares reasonably well despite the competition having heated up by several degrees.

The Magnite has been the only product in Nissan India portfolio for long and was only recently joined by the latest X-Trail here. But while the Nissan X-Trail is a premium SUV, the appeal of Magnite remains its lucrative price positioning, one that can be bettered further still with the current slew of offers and discounts. Check these out:
