Update Magnite shines bright

With the discontinuation of the NP200 earlier this, the Magnite, to put it bluntly, stands as the most important volume-selling model in Nissan South Africa's product line-up.

While still a local market favourite that has shifted more than 21,000 units since entering South Africa three years ago, the Magnite has come under renewed fire in recent years from similar offerings hailing not only from India where it is built, but also China.

Signalled out for lacking Nissan's traditional V-motion grille - the Magnite's updated looks suitably more aggressive. While outfitted with the same L-shaped daytime running lights as before, a new graphic has been included as a way of intertwining with the new headlights featuring what Nissan calls light saber motifs for the indicators.

New for the grille is a mesh honeycomb pattern complete with a chrome and gloss black surround, while the bumper has been updated to accommodate a new imitation skidplate and more centrally placed fog lamps.

Down the side, all but the base Visia receives the new diamond-cut 16-inch alloy wheels. At the rear, the new bumper and skidplate are joined by blackened taillight clusters with a new 3D appearance.

On the colour front, Sunrise Copper Orange debuts as a new option alongside the existing Storm White, Onyx Black, Pearl White, Blade Silver, Vivid Red and Flare Garnet Red.
