The Japanese carmaker, Nissan India, on Tuesday rolled out the 50,000th unit of the sub-compact SUV, Magnite, from its Renault Nissan Automotive India (RNAIPL) plant in Chennai.
The SUV was the first global product to be launched under the Nissan NEXT transformation plan to deliver lasting value to the customers.
At present, the company confirmed to have an order book of 100,000 units of Maginte, including both domestic and international markets.
Sinan Ozkok, President, Nissan Motor India, said that the “Make in India, Make for the World” SUV has been a core model under Nissan’s global transformation strategy.
The SUV plays a key role in strengthening Nissan’s presence in India and overseas. “We express our gratitude to our customers, business partners and employees for making Nissan Magnite an overwhelming success in India and across global markets,” he added.
Rakesh Srivastava, Managing Director, Nissan Motor India, said, “Love for Nissan Magnite is phenomenal with it being the most awarded Nissan Vehicle in the Indian market with strong customer demand with more than one lakh plus bookings demonstrating the Nissan’s global SUV DNA and technology.”
Earlier in February this year, the SUV was awarded a 4-star safety rating in Global NCAP's adult occupant protection category.
