Nissan Gravite will be available with 1.0L NA and turbo petrol engines with manual and automatic transmission choices
Nissan’s upcoming Gravite compact MPV is set to play a critical role in the brand’s long term plans for India as it is part of a three-model product offensive scheduled over the next year and a half. Alongside the Gravite, Nissan will introduce the Tekton five-seat C-segment SUV on February 4 while a larger three-row C-SUV is already confirmed for production in 2027.
All three vehicles will be manufactured in India and they are earmarked for exports to global markets. Originally planned for an official debut on January 21, 2026, the Nissan Gravite’s unveiling was deferred with the company yet to announce a revised launch date. Despite the delay, the MPV will still become Nissan India’s first product launch of 2026 with dealership activities and customer deliveries likely to begin by March.
The timing of the Gravite’s arrival coincides with a strong phase for Nissan’s export operations. In December 2025 alone, the brand shipped 13,470 vehicles overseas – its highest monthly export figure in over a decade. For the full calendar year, cumulative exports surpassed 1.2 million units reaffirming Chennai plant’s importance as a manufacturing and export base for Nissan.
Powertrain options will include a 1.0-litre petrol engine offered in both naturally aspirated and turbocharged versions. Buyers can expect a choice of manual and automatic transmissions. Competitive pricing could be one of the Gravite’s strongest selling points upon arrival just as its Renault sibling.
Under the skin, the Gravite is based on the CMF-A platform which also underpins the Renault Triber. However, Nissan has worked extensively to give the MPV a distinct visual identity. Up front, it features a wide blacked-out grille area paired with a slim LED light strip, integrated headlamps and sculpted bonnet creases. The Gravite nameplate is prominently displayed on the nose to set it apart.
The rear design gains connected LED tail lamps, an upright tailgate and a roof-mounted spoiler. The bumper incorporates sporty detailing with skid plate style elements. Inside, the Nissan Gravite will feature a three-row cabin with a flexible seating layout prioritising space and everyday usability. While full interior specifications are yet to be revealed, Nissan is expected to offer a touchscreen, digital driver’s display, steering mounted controls and more.
