At almost the same price as the kiger RXT; Magnite XV gets alloys, Auto AC, 2 extra speakers, Anti pinch windows, rear defogger and additional safety features.

Sticking to Magnite (for now... I think).

Congratulations! The Magnite XV turbo is the most VFM among all the variants of Magnite/Kiger and you have made the right decision.:thumbs up

Does anyone have a Bangalore dealer price list of the Magnite. I’ve tried the search function but cannot find it.

Here is the link which I posted earlier. https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/offic...ml#post4963471

Thanks. Looks like Nissan and Renault dealers are charging extra for 'Registration' or 'Handling charges'. Kind of leaves a bad taste in the mouth, especially since other manufacturers have put a stop to this practice.

This is January last week pricing from Surya Nissan. Sorry for the pic not being clear as the print out was not very bright.

Yes that is correct, when I pushed Surya Nissan they said that customer can go ahead and get the RTO formalities themselves, they know which customer has the time to run around the famous RTO ! Also they have smartly avoided showing this amount as under the head of handling charges. 8K amount is shown as a side note as RTO expenses.

Went through a lot of Kiger review videos today. Lot of positive feedback and deservingly so, However I saw lot of the reviewers were appreciating the Engine, Suspension and drivability of Kiger over Magnite. Kiger Suspension definitely was better but did others here also find Kiger considerably better w.r.t engine refinement and Drivability? I could hardly tell the difference :)

Nissan Magnite XV Turbo CVT vs Jazz CVT? I would like to know which one to go for barring the comparison in terms of CSUV and Premium Hatchback. I would like to know about :
1. Reliability & Longevity
2. Turbo vs NA Engines
3. 4 Cylinder vs 3 Cylinder Engines.
4. Built Quality.
5. Service of Honda vs Nissan.
6. Rear AC Vent (Not provided in Jazz)
7. Overall judgement

1. Too early to say
2. Honda 1.2 has poor low end torque, but once it crosses 2.5k rpm, that's different story. OTOH Nissan 1.0 has better low & mid range.
3. Obviously 4 cyl is better any day
4. Jazz wins
5. Honda again, but ownership cost will be higher
6. You have the answer
7. Depends on individual

Finally got the car delivered on 19th Feb around 7.30 PM, after 99 days of waiting.

Nissan Magnite XV PREMIUM CVT DT FLARE GARNET RED & ONYX BLACK

OTR Price - 11.19 L including extended warranty (+3 years) and gold care package for 5 years. The dealer is charging labour charges for even the bundled packs (Essential/Premium accessory pack), also they are not including Luggage Mat in the essential accessory pack where some other dealers are giving the essential pack for Rs. 2250 (Rs. 2249 + Rs. 1 fitment charges) including the luggage mat. However managed to get the essential accessory package for 2249 and they promised to give luggage mat without any additional charges once it arrives.

I am sure many dealers are charging different prices / delete accessories from premium & essential accessory pack. If you contact Nissan customer care, they will say there is no fitment charges, but dealer says it's as per the instruction from Nissan. If you ask the dealer to give in writing / mail the breakup of accessories cost like MRP, fitment charges+GST & total cost, they will never give it. It is very difficult or nearly impossible to get the fitment charges waived. Nissan and dealer play hide and seek and we will give in after sometime.

Thank you. Had to wait so much only because of this colour, would have got delivery in first week of January had it been any other colour than Red (black also got a bit prolonged waiting period though not as much as Red).

Congrats! She's beautiful :loveit

Day before yesterday when driving back I was following a Black Magnite and Black Sonet (both top trims) driving side by side. I repeat, any day I will choose Magnite over Sonet. Seriously 4 lakhs more for Sonet :Frustrati

Cheers!
