Delhi : On October 7, Nissan Motor is slated to release the Magnite Kuro edition. Bookings for the 11,000 INR Magnite Kuro became available last month. The Magnite Kuro is one of India's most reasonably priced SUVs and is distinguished by having an all-black exterior and interior. Kuro is the Japanese equivalent of the English term "Black." The automaker recently introduced the Magnite Kuro edition, giving a sneak peek at its appearance and capabilities before its official release.

The Nissan Magnite Kuro, which is based on the SUV's XV grade, will be available in four distinct variations, each of which will have an exterior colour scheme of glossy black. This comprises a blacked-out grille, bumpers, skid plates, headlamp highlights, door handles, and roof rails that have been painted black. Only the Nissan and Magnite insignia at the front and back are made of chrome on the bodywork.

The red callipers on the alloy wheels will also add a slight pop of colour to the mostly black look. The Magnite Kuro edition's design hasn't changed much overall.

The Magnite Kuro edition's interior stays true to the all-black colour scheme. This includes the monochromatic-designed dashboard, centre console, seats, and upholstery. To emphasise the luxury appearance, several interior components have been given the piano-black treatment. The feature list is constant and includes, among other conveniences, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a digital driver display, and wireless charging.

The Magnite Kuro edition's engine lineup is identical to that of the SUV's normal models. Nissan will still offer the 1.0-liter petrol and 1.0-liter petrol turboengines. The turbocharged petrol engine produces about 99 bhp of power and 152 Nm of peak torque, compared to the normally aspirated petrol engine's 71 bhp and 96 Nm.

Magnite Kuro will start at around 7.50 lakh rupees (ex-showroom). The basic price of the Magnite SUV is 6 lakh rupees (ex-showroom), while the top-tier model is 10.86 lakh rupees (ex-showroom). Although the Magnite Kuro has no direct rivals, it may face off against the recently released Renault Kiger SUV's Urban Knight special edition, which was unveiled last month.
