Nissan Motor India has introduced the Nissan Gravite in the Indian market, marking its entry into the compact seven-seater MPV segment. The launch expands Nissan’s product portfolio beyond the Magnite and adds a three-row offering in the sub-₹10 lakh space.
Expanding Nissan’s Line-Up in India
The Gravite becomes Nissan’s second mass-market passenger vehicle in India. The company has relied heavily on the Magnite for volumes, and the addition of a compact MPV allows it to participate in another high-demand category.
Seven-seater vehicles in the affordable bracket continue to attract steady interest, particularly among buyers upgrading from smaller hatchbacks or entry sedans.
Built on the CMF-A+ Platform
The Gravite is underpinned by the CMF-A+ platform. While it shares its base architecture within the alliance, Nissan has applied its own exterior styling elements.

Engine and Transmission Choices
Powering the Gravite is a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine. The setup is tuned for efficiency and daily commuting needs.
Transmission options include:
- 5-speed manual gearbox
- AMT (Automated Manual Transmission)
This combination allows buyers to choose between conventional manual control and automatic convenience.
Interior Layout and Features
The cabin follows a functional layout with a focus on seating flexibility. The third row can be adjusted or removed depending on passenger and luggage requirements.
Expected feature highlights include:
- Touchscreen infotainment system
- Smartphone connectivity support
- Dual airbags
- ABS with EBD
- Rear parking sensors
Feature availability may vary across variants.
Competitive Pricing Focus
The Gravite is expected to be positioned in the sub-₹10 lakh (ex-showroom) bracket. Pricing in this range places it directly within the entry-level MPV segment, where affordability remains a key purchase factor.
With the launch of the Gravite, Nissan strengthens its presence in India’s mass-market passenger vehicle space by adding a compact three-row model alongside its existing SUV offering.
