Nissan Gravite
The Gravite is a sub-four-metre, three-row MPV that shares its underpinning with the Renault Triber. In Nissan’s line-up, it will be positioned below the Magnite and will cater to buyers looking for a compact and affordable seven-seat vehicle. On launch, it will compete with models such as the Renault Triber, Maruti Ertiga, Toyota Rumion and Citroen C3 Aircross.
On the design front the images teased by Nissan hint at the silhouette and proportions of Gravite which seem identical to that of the Renault Triber. However to mark a clear distinction it gets several Nissan-specific styling updates. For example the front fascia features a new grille with chrome elements, connected LED DRLs, revised bumper detailing and cladding and updated lighting signatures. The bonnet of the Gravite looked quite appealing as it presented a very sculpted look with pronounced creases adding strong definition and character to the front end of this car.
At the sides, the MPV is expected to get a fresh set of alloy wheels and roof rails. The rear end has also been reworked, featuring new LED tail-lamps, a revised bumper and the Gravite nameplate displayed across the tailgate. Overall length remains under four metres, allowing it to benefit from lower taxation.
Nissan has not yet revealed interior images, however expected features include a digital instrument cluster, touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless charging, push-button start/stop and steering-mounted controls. AC vents for the second and third rows are also likely. The third-row seating is expected to retain a modular design, allowing it to be removed to increase boot space.
Safety is expected to be a key focus, with the Gravite likely to offer six airbags, ABS, traction control, hill-hold assist, tyre pressure monitoring system and ISOFIX child seat mounts.
Power is expected to come from the familiar 1.0-litre, three-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine shared with the Triber. This unit produces 71bhp and 96Nm of torque and is paired with a five-speed manual or a five-speed AMT. A dealer-level CNG retrofit option is also expected to be offered.
Nissan Gravite: Expected Launch Date & Price
Nissan has confirmed that January 2026 will be the Gravite’s market debut, with sales scheduled to commence from March 2026. December 2025 is expected to be the last month when the Magnite remains Nissan’s only model on sale in the country as the automaker attempts to turn its innings around in India. Nissan is expected to introduce the Gravite MPV in India with a starting ex-showroom price of around Rs 5.49 to 5.99 lakh.
Offering an insight into the production of this upcoming MPV, Nissan shared that the production of the Gravite will take place at its facility in Chennai. Nissan has also confirmed that India will play a key role as an export hub, with the Gravite being shipped to multiple global markets.
