Nissan Gravite: Engine options

While not confirmed as of now, the Gravite will share its engine with the Triber. So, expect the same 1.0-litre petrol engine that is a 3-cylinder unit. It produces 72 Ps of max power and a peak torque output of the 96 Nm. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox or a 5-speed AMT.

The Triber was expected to get the 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine from the Renault Kiger. However, that didn’t happen. Now, we hope we get to see the turbo petrol engine on the Gravite. The engine is tuned to produce 100 Ps of max power and a peak torque output of up to 160 Nm. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox or a CVT automatic transmission.

Nissan Gravite: Most affordable MPV

The Triber is the most affordable MPV in the Indian market. It is priced between ₹5.76 lakh and ₹8.60 lakh. Both prices are ex-showroom. We are expecting the Gravite to be priced only in this price range. However, there is a possibility that there will be an introductory price which will be lower initially.

Nissan expanding dealerships

Nissan currently has 155 sales outlets throughout India. And the brand plans to have 250 outlets by FY 26-27. The company also revealed that they are closely monitoring the locations of the new dealerships and service centres.
