The CVT Turbo is a hidden gem. We own this and a Skoda Slavia and we don't feel bad switching the cars which says a volume about the drive quality of Magnite. Also it looks great and comfortable with decent mileage (18-19 on higways) and 12 in city. We get 450-550km range and not 300km as per this video. I would not recommend anyone buying the underpowered non-turbo, especially the newly launched AMT.
I just bought the CVT Turbo Magnite fully loaded. I am thinking of upsizing only the tyres from the stock to R16 55 205. Please advise if the stock tyres are good enough. Thanks.
@@ussmissouri7646 I have the stock tyres 195/60 R16. I am not an expert if other tyre size will fit this and impact it will have on ride quality and mileage. Maybe talk to a tyre shop. Why you want to change to 205/55R16?
True bro 😢😢😢😢
Just press down the mode button near instrument cluster and it’ll show you the range
How to drive XV premium CVT Magnite turbo on DOWNhill, should I use just braking ? Or I can use L option on my CVT gear box
Magnite displays the range as well. Try to read users manuval
The chrome strips around the fog lamps, the wireless charger and the JBL speakers are NOT stock, they are add-ons. The stock speakers though are pretty good in themselves.
The fuel computer gives a very very optimistic reading. The max that my Magnite's fuel computer shows is 29.9kmpl (I have the top manual turbo). I have learnt that this is very misleading, my actual figure averages around 17 in city, with a best of 20 plus, in Delhi, in my driving cycle. I've covered more than 7.5k km now. There are a couple of rattles from my left front door, but that's about it.
And yes, if you toggle the MID control buttons, you do get a range readout.
What I don't quite like are the big blocks on the digital fuel gauge. Each block, I have learnt over the past many months, represents approx 5L.
The TPMS works good without actual pressure readouts but that is fine. What I don't like is that a low pressure warning comes in only when the drop in pressures are more 15%. Rec pressures are 35, warnings come up only when pressure drops to 29-30 or lower.
Cruise control is not intuitive to ease.
Another miss here is that if you open the tail gate, all doors get unlocked, and there is no indication to that effect. One MUST remember to deliberately lock all doors - I've forgotten to do so a few times and that's risky for vehicle security. I thought it would unlock independent of the passenger doors (like that on my Nissan Sunny), and that's why the whole thing is unanticipated.
The front central armrest is too short for the driver, and in my driving position (I keep my seat at the highest), it's too low. And there could have been a storage box inside of it, but no complaints here.
The insides are quite premium, plush and clean. Absolutely no complaints about the plastics. Better than almost all cars in this segment, except probably the Sonet.
Ergonomics are nearly prefect. The steering wheel is perfectly designed and really good to hold esp at the 2 and 10 positions where the knobly projections are pleasantly flat behind the steering wheel, making the grip and support to the palm and fingers great. Seats are good, comfortably firm, and under thigh support is good.
The 360 camera's resolution (both of the 4 cameras and the screen) isn't too great and gets really blurry and pixelated in low light. But it's a great, great convenience and In simply love it. Though it without have been better if the camera control tap switch had been more responsive- it's at the best sluggish to just about ok. An additional right sided kerb view (in addition to the top down stitched view) for the right kerb (as is there on the left) would be really helpful.
I feel exactly the same way as you. I also miss the auto folding OVRM when remote locked. Could have been a good feature to add.
@@GaneshKrupaDaamodaran agree! But no complaints here.
Do you know if there is a illumination for the CVT gear? I find that strange they have cut cost on that.
👍Nice detailed add on, over and above the video.
Will you please give your valuable opinion about headlight illumination during night time driving, especially in presence of opposite traffic lights in two Lane roads?🙏
@@Ash-uq7bv I have the LED projectors on my car. Illumination is pretty good. Head on traffic with high beams is always a problem, even Rolls Royce or Bentley or Maybach do not have an answer for that 🤣🤣
Well can you talk about service feedback n cost associated to it..i would love to know..i loved ur review by the way
Service cost is fine …but performance is zero and mileage is very worst in market for a one litre engine
Nissan magnite xv cvt model prices are increased upto around 12 lakhs, is this car is worth to buy in this price segment and please suggest me another car for roadno price 10 lakhs
Honda amaze CVT 10.25-10.75 on road price...
Please don't choose magnite
I Have Nissan Magnite CVT Turbo, Initially I Was Getting Average of 9 Kmpl, After Checking With Company, They Given Tips how to Accelerate, after that i getting 17Kmpl in city
This car also have Hydraulic Break Assist with ABS EBD. No one is talking about that😂
I have nissan micra..now I want to buy nissan magnite turbo automatic..is it good buy?please guide
Never ever do that mistake. Please go for better options.
Cud u suggest better options pls @@prasanthvignesh9082
I booked punch but now looking for Magnite CVT Turbo. Test drive is schedules tomorrow. Please suggest whether I can go for Magnite than punch?
Punch has a 1.2 L NA engine with AMT transmission!! That is a bummer In comparison with the turbo CVT combo employed in magnite.. If you need power and performance, smooth gear shifts, magnite is the choice hands down.
May be the ride quality and other bits are better in punch, but for the higher variants it is not VFM.
@@dheeraja5649 i have driven punch, whai i felt was it had vibrations, underpowered and dull interiors
Just a piece of advice, I have been hunting for automatic cars( for my father) in the last few weeks test drove TATA PUNCH it looks all good from the outside and inside. it is worthing mentioning riding position, rear seating, boot, and ground clearance is par good in this segment but when it comes to the soul(Engine) of the vehicle it lacks the calibration and misses to offer the punch at higher speed (I mean 80KMPH and above). Literally throttle to metal it was crying to go beyond the mentioned speed. This being AMT the gear changing is very evident( you can feel the gear changing), and loss of power is all along when it shifts the gear. though I have a soft corner for TATA MOTORS ( being an ex-TAMO engineer) still recommend checking the points I have mentioned above before buying.
When it comes to Automatic CVT is the best, and AMT is the cheapest ( DCT and Torque convertor are the most complex transmission and costlier). If Ground clearance is not the issue test drive Nios AMT which offers the best drive train calibration with a lighter steering response( know as a girly response among Hyundai folks), Maruthi cars as well.
@@robtho3786 Hyundai worked on IVT just to improve their CVT failures mainly the fuel efficiency, (fuel efficiency increases when engine RPM is maintained in a specific range irrespective of the vehicle speed- they generally call it a sweet spot). sadly I haven't tried any IVT to this day. This technology looks good on paper from an efficiency standpoint. If I get a chance to test drive an IVT transmission I will test for quick overtaking/instant power at the throttle as and when I need. ( I have a strong feeling in order to keep up the efficiency-sweet spot. Hyundai has traded in for a slight power lag). If the use case (maximum commute) is city rides this might be the best proposition to go with IVT 👍👍.
I got a max of 20kmpl, avg 18kmpl on highwa
y, cvt turbo. You just need to learn to how to drive it properly. And I don't mean sedately. I drove it at an avg of 70-90 kmph
My only complaint is the piss poor headlights, creaky break sounds and abrupt sudden braking(guess the brake assists are to blame) at low speeds, way too stiff suspension.
Comparison review with Toyota Raize please.
Unfortunately raize isn't available in India
That is a very low fuel economy for a Magnite Turbo.!We've achieved about 26.3 kmpl in a 200 km road trip down to Agra from Delhi in Our Magnite Turbo Manual. Were you using Regular Petrol?
R u lying?
@@sakshamsrivastava7351 please share your email id / insta handle. Shall send proofs!
He's using CVT automatic so that might made the difference?
@@thecrypticmystic28 The Magnite Turbo CVT should be slightly more fuel economical thanks to lower rpm at higher gears thanks to the variable gears. The trick is to use high quality fuel, which we never talk about.
@@TheRaceMonkey yeah makes sense. Didn't know how did he get such low mileage. BTW how was your experience with Magnite? Any after sales issues that are noteworthy? Thanks in advance
What about mileage range?
Very bad …don’t go for it
Dude is this a long term review or features review. CVT should be main focus
Exactly ..i came to know aboyt cvt performance ..got a table reading of the specs from the company brochure
@@M3ganwillslay is it good and mileage?
This is not how a long-term review should be
Simply.... The all time best package .... I have XL 🥳
How is ac performance bhai?
@@harshitsrivastava864 4star out of 5stars
AC bolre bht bekar h eska CVT mein.....sch h ???
Yes
I know this comment is late by its in the owners manual to shut down engine to get the best fuel indicator calibration.
Lol I got the XL Turbo.. simple meter no problem at all
Is Renault Kiger cvt the same as magnite cvt?
Yes
They hv the same engine which Nissan makes..Bt at same price one is providing CVT and the other AMT..So nissan is anyday a better choice
@@richaverma268 renault and nissan both provide cvt
@@sg26948 Yeah the price difference is there..Thats the whole point
I too own a CVT turbo and the petrol tank indicator is a nightmare
😅i also feel the same..
Never fill petrol while engine is ON, that will spoil your sensor
How is the steering feedback. Does nissan resolves the steering feedback issue during service?
@@bharathkumarhere there is nothing wrong in steering feedback as such, if you are new driver you can't even find the difference .
It's just that people who have driven Ford vehicles will feel the difference otherwise nothing to be concerned .
This is not issue as such so service center cannot fix it
@@VTVT007 thanks.
Thank you for information sir . Nissan magnetic is value for money car Nissan magnite ❤❤❤❤❤❤ my fav car Nissan magnite....
12 kmpl is decent 😂, that's how a paid review is made.
Big baby
Why no one talks about the 4S which cars like Magnite easily neglect. 1. Safety. 2. Servicing 3. Superior Engine Performanc 4. SUV? Really??
XUV300 Indias safest pure SUV
safety? its 4 star crash rated.
and what do you get in xuv300 for 10lakhs?
XUV300 is the most overpriced sub compact SUV with the worst possible boot space to add on!!
Xuv300??? Fu*k.. best is rr Evoque.. cost 70 lac.🤣🤣🤣.. go buy that u star boyy
XUV 300 Automatic is very costly
That's why education is important vik mehta
