Nissan Magnite variants explained
Standard variant
Priced at AED 59,900, the Standard variant of the new Magnite offers subtle convenience features along with tried and tested engineering.
It comes loaded with the basic necessity features that include a touchscreen infotainment system, auto AC, wireless phone connectivity, a 7-inch TFT digital console, 6 speakers, rear camera, rear AC vent, 6 airbags, ABS+EBD, Brake Assist, fabric seats, and more.
Visually, it is not the most appealing model as the cost-cutting is evident. It features 16-inch steel rims, halogen lights, and black plastic trims instead of the chrome treatment.
Additionally, it does not get the rear defogger, rear wiper and washer, and LED lights functionality.
Special Value (SV) variant
The SV, or the Special Value variant, is a mid-level trim option which is priced at AED 63,900.
It gets the critical comfort and convenience features of the top model while retaining the basic functionality of the standard variant.
Along with all the features of the Standard variant, the SV variant comes equipped with the following features: LED headlights and taillights, auto lights, adjustable driver and front passenger seats, rear USB type-C charging ports, LED DRLs, and more.
On the outside, it features body-coloured trims, 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, and the signature honeycomb 3D front grille that gives it an upmarket feel.
The safety features on the SV trims include 6 airbags, ABS+EBD, Brake Assist, and more.
Special Luxury (SL) variant
The top-trim SL, or the Special Luxury, is priced at AED 71,900. It is the fully-loaded option that features the complete luxury features for the utmost comfort.
On the inside, it comes loaded with leather upholstery, cruise control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a frameless IRVM with an auto-dimming feature, a cooled glove compartment, a dust filter with an air purifier, a remote engine start, a 360-degree view monitor, and ambient lights.
Visually, it looks very appealing due to its dual-tone body colour options. Moreover, it gets the chrome treatment on the door handles and on the window beadings.
The signature front grille and the front and rear bumper silver skid plates make it appear classy and upmarket.

Which variant should you choose?
Out of all the three variants, we recommend the Standard variant for family use. It might be an entry-level version, but it has all the necessary features for safety and comfort.
Additional features to improve the exteriors, like alloy wheels, etc., can be purchased as optional accessories later on.
The Standard variant is priced at AED 59,900 only, which makes it extremely affordable and value-for-money.
However, if you like the latest features OEM-fitted only, then opt for the SL variant, as it is a fully-loaded trim.
