- Magnite gets new AMT (automated manual transmission)

- No changes to the design of the Magnite EZ-Shift

The Nissan Magnite has been offered only with the CVT automatic transmission option ever since its introduction in India. And that too was available only with the turbo-petrol engine. However, the carmaker is now expanding the Magnite’s line-up by introducing a five-speed AMT with the 1.0-litre naturally aspirated mill. This powertrain configuration is also available on its sibling, the Renault Kiger. Here's a picture gallery of the new Magnite's exterior.

At a glance, it is evident that there are no changes to the exterior. Even the signature blue colour remains the same.

The roof, however, is finished in black here. This gives the crossover a dual-tone look and can be had in the top-spec variants.

At the back, the car gets the EZ-Shift badge to denote this is the AMT version of the Magnite. There are no other changes.

The currently on sale 1.0-litre turbo-petrol option with CVT will now be joined by this new configuration. As mentioned earlier though, it's the 1.0-litre naturally-aspirated engine that comes mated to the AMT.
