Nissan Tekton with Lower Specifications Spied for Launch in India
Nissan Tekton with Lower Specifications Spied for Launch in India
Tekton testing mules have been spotted in India; they are heavily camouflaged but disclose important details. The automobile is being prepped in a less expensive trim (perhaps an "Accenta" level) rather than the top variant, as evidenced by the most recent photos, which show the car with wheel covers instead of high-end alloy wheels.
The pictures show that the SUV still has the strong, upright style cues that Nissan first hinted at, including large wheel arches, substantial cladding, a high bonnet, and a powerful SUV posture.
The impending new-generation Renault Duster and the Tekton are both built on the CMF-B platform.
In terms of design, Nissan has taken cues from its flagship SUV, the Nissan Patrol, especially in the aggressive grille, C-shaped LED light-signatures, upright hood, and general SUV proportions.
The Tekton is anticipated to compete directly with well-known models like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, and Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara in India's mid-size SUV market. It will be positioned above the smaller Magnite but below the large three-row SUVs.
Certain features will probably be reduced because this model is a lower-spec trim. Because wheel coverings are present, we can anticipate:
Fewer alloy-design variations and smaller wheels.
Fewer sophisticated amenities and less upscale interior décor (such as a simple infotainment screen and a panoramic sunroof).
Perhaps less sophisticated ADAS or fewer advanced driver-assistance capabilities.
A more aggressive pricing approach to attract more customers.
The Tekton may have amenities such as huge touchscreen, digital driver display, panoramic sunroof, and Level 2 ADAS in upper trims, according to prior information, though precise feature lists are still pending.
The Tekton's entire variant range is estimated to cost between ₹11 lakh and ₹18 lakh (ex-showroom) in India. The entry side of this bant7yfd may be the focus of the lower-spec version.
Nissan has stated that the Tekton will go on sale in India in the first part of 2026. According to some sources, it might happen in April or June of 2026.
Nissan's India strategy greatly benefits from this approach. In the very competitive mid-size SUV market, the business sees the Tekton as a crucial product for regaining traction.
Additionally, Nissan intends to introduce a three-row SUV variation in 2027, expanding on the two-row model.
