If you’ve been eyeing a stylish yet practical SUV, Nissan’s new Magnite Kuro Edition might just grab your attention. Inspired by the Japanese word “Kuro” (meaning black), this edition brings a bold, premium look with added features — and it starts at just ₹8.30 lakh (ex-showroom). Let’s explore what makes it special in five simple points.
1. All-Black Premium Styling
The first thing you’ll notice is the exclusive Onyx Black paint finish that gives the SUV a sporty and sophisticated vibe. The theme extends to:
- Black front grille
- Black 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels
- Black roof rails & bumpers
- Black interior trim, including dashboard, steering, center console, and seats
This unified design theme is aimed at younger buyers who want a car that feels as good to drive as it looks.
2. Feature-Rich Cabin
The Kuro Edition is based on Nissan’s N-Connecta variant, packing in tech and comfort features like:
- 8-inch touchscreen infotainment with wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay
- 360-degree surround-view camera
- Wireless phone charger
- Automatic climate control & rear AC vents
- Arkamys premium sound system

3. Engine & Performance Options
You can choose between two petrol engines:

| 1.0L Turbo Petrol | 98 bhp / 160 Nm | 5-speed manual or CVT |
