Nissan’s roadmap to revive its India business seems interesting. After several quiet years here, the carmaker is now set for an aggressive launch spree. The goal seems to be to regain relevance in India’s fast-evolving automotive landscape. The first step in this journey was the launch of the new Gravite in mid-February. Here is everything we know about Nissan’s upcoming product launches for India.

The Magnite is an important product for Nissan. For several years, it has been the company’s only mass-market model in India. In a way, it defined Nissan’s existence here. Now, things have changed. We have the Gravite selling alongside the Magnite. Both these models are based on the CMF-A+ (Common Module Family-Affordable) platform. More significantly, these are badge-engineered versions of the Renault Kiger and Triber.
Under Renault Group’s latest vision, the Kiger and Triber will move to a new platform, and the CMF-A will be phased out. Called the new RGEP (Renault Group Entry Platform), the new base will be more advanced than the CMF-A family and will be able to accommodate newer powertrain options and factory-fitted CNG. It will also be able to accommodate a better electronic backbone.

After this happens, Nissan is also likely to roll out RGEP-underpinned versions of the Magnite and Gravite. The CNG versions of these will have underbody CNG tanks.

The Tekton will be Nissan’s version of the Duster. Like the Duster, it will also be underpinned by the RGMP (Renault Global Modular Platform) and will use the same set of powertrains- 1.0L turbo-petrol making 98hp and 160Nm and 1.3L turbo-petrol making 160hp and 280Nm. The former will only be available with a manual transmission while the latter will offer the choice of a 6-speed AISIN-sourced wet-clutch DCT transmission as well.
The Tekton will have notable design deviations from the Duster. It will have Nissan’s styling DNA in it. The front fascia will have the most noticeable differences. It will get new wheels and the rear end will also be redesigned. The interior design will also have Nissan-specific changes, although the feature list will remain the same as that of the Duster.

The Tekton is also expected to get a strong hybrid version. The powertrain here will pair a 1.8L naturally aspirated petrol engine with two electric motors and a 1.4kWh battery pack. One of these motors will act as a generator while the other will drive the wheels. This system is expected to have a combined output of around 160hp.
Nissan has also confirmed that it is working on a new seven-seater C-SUV based on the Tekton’s platform and powered by the same 1.3L turbocharged petrol engine. It will also get the Tekton's 1.8L strong hybrid setup.
Expected in early 2027, it will get Nissan-spec exterior styling, likely borrowing heavily from the designs of global SUV models like the Patrol. It is also said to come with a tech-laden cabin.

Renault will launch its second B-segment SUV, the Bridger, in India next year. Though it hasn’t yet commented on it officially, Nissan is also expected to introduce its version of the Bridger later. It will be powered by a new 1.2L turbocharged petrol engine and will even get a hybrid version sometime later. Underpinning this product will be the RGMP Small platform.

Nissan will also launch its first electric vehicle in the coming years, and it will most likely be based on its version of the Bridger SUV. The underlying RGMP is a multi-energy platform, and will support electrification as well. Renault has already confirmed its intention to roll out an electric version of the Bridger and that makes it logical to expect a Nissan-badge-engineered version sometime later.
