Nissan Rolls Out 1,00,000th Magnite From Chennai Plant

Nissan Motor India recently rolled out its 1,00,000th production Magnite from its Alliance plant (RNAIPL) in Chennai. 

Designed in Japan and manufactured in India, the Nissan Magnite which was launched in December 2020 is a global product and is currently exported to 15 global markets, with recent launches in Seychelles, Bangladesh, Uganda, and Brunei. 

Nissan Motor India has exported more than a million vehicles from its Chennai plant to 108 destinations, including New Zealand, Australia, and countries in the Middle East, Europe, Latin America, South-East Asia, SAARC, Sub Sahara, and African regions. 

Nissan Motor India was recently recognised by the Chennai Office of the Chief Commissioner of Customs for its excellent contributions to exports from India, highlighting its commitment to “Make in India, Make for the World”. 

Speaking about this achievement, Rakesh Srivastava, Managing Director of Nissan Motor India, said, “The production of the 100,000th Magnite is a testimony of Nissan’s brand promise of providing its customers' products that are high on value, safety and strong customer service making it a global product.”

Keerthi Prakash, MD of Renault Nissan Automotive India, said, "The Chennai plant in addition to catering to the domestic market, exports vehicles to 108 destinations in collaboration with our supply chain partners; producing high-quality products with best-in-class safety features that exceed customer expectations.”

Nissan has also provided its customers with a better value-focused transition to BS6 Stage 2 norms with the introduction of the Nissan Magnite BS6 Stage 2 RDE-compliant version earlier this year; equipped with new safety features as standard across all variants, as well as a GNCAP 4.0 safety rating.

Nissan Motor India recently launched the Magnite Geza Special Edition, inspired by Japanese theatre and its expressive musical themes. Based on this concept, the Magnite GEZA Special Edition offers a bouquet of feature enhancements coupled with an advanced infotainment system.
