Japanese auto giant Nissan is gearing up to launch five new models in India within the next 30 months, marking a significant push in the fast-developing Indian automobile sector. The planned models include two mid-size SUVs, one electric SUV, and a refreshed version of its compact SUV, Magnite.

Unveiling the premium SUV X-Trail as a completely built-up (CBU) model, Nissan India President Frank Torres emphasized the company's strategic focus on the Indian market. “India is crucial for us, and we are preparing for a product offensive over the next two and a half years, from FY24 to FY26,” Torres said in an interaction with PTI.
