Nissan Motor India announced the Phase 2 rollout of its CNG retrofitment kit for its popular compact SUV, the New Nissan Magnite. The eco-friendly CNG option will now be available for purchase at Nissan-authorised dealerships in Rajasthan, Bihar, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Tamil Nadu.
In the first phase, the CNG retrofitment option was launched in 7 states, namely Delhi-NCR, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Kerala, and Karnataka. With the Phase 2 launch, the CNG retrofit variant is now available across a total of 13 states in India with phase III preparations underway.
This expansion responds to strong customer demand for affordable and sustainable mobility solutions. The retro fitment kit is developed, manufactured, and quality-assured by Motozen, a government-approved third-party vendor. Installation will take place at government-authorised fitment centres using a homologated kit compliant with local regulations and safety standards. Motozen provides a 3-year/1 lakh km warranty on kit components.
Offered at a price of Rs 74,999, the retrofitment kit is compatible with the New Nissan Magnite 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with manual transmission. With its 336-litre boot space, among the largest in the segment, the Magnite continues to offer excellent luggage capacity.
Post the Phase 1 rollout, customer feedback and third-party tests have indicated enhanced fuel economy over the standard petrol variant.
Saurabh Vatsa, Managing Director, Nissan Motor India, commented:“The New Nissan Magnite continues to be a key growth driver for us in India, and we’re committed to expanding its relevance in line with evolving customer needs. The Phase 2 rollout of our CNG retrofitment option reflects both the growing demand for cleaner mobility and our intent to offer credible, high-quality alternatives without compromising on the core strengths of the Magnite. With government-certified kits, authorised fitment, and extensive dealer network, this initiative enhances the Magnite’s value proposition while reinforcing our focus on accessible, sustainable solutions.”
The new Magnite SUV’s bold and stylish design, 20+ first & best-in-segment features, and 55+ safety features make it a standout choice in the compact SUV segment. With its bold road presence, premium features, and expanding global reach, the New Nissan Magnite is now present in over 65 countries, including both the Right-Hand Drive and Left-Hand Drive markets.
