If you have been eyeing a Nissan Magnite or the seven-seater Gravite, this week could save you a serious chunk of money. Nissan Motor India has announced a limited-period festive offer under which buyers of select variants get a government-approved CNG retrofitment kit at no extra cost. The kit is worth Rs 74,999 on the Magnite and Rs 85,999 on the Gravite, and the offer is open only until 16 November 2026.
For family buyers watching every rupee of running cost, that is not a small footnote. CNG typically costs far less per kilometre than petrol, so a free kit changes the maths of owning a budget SUV or a seven-seater from day one. The catch is in the fine print: not every variant qualifies, and the booking has to be made before the deadline.
What Nissan is offering, in plain terms
Under the offer, Nissan is waiving the price of CNG retrofitment on eligible variants of its two most family-focused models. The Magnite is the compact SUV that starts at around Rs 5.69 lakh, ex-showroom, while the Gravite seven-seater starts at around Rs 5.73 lakh, ex-showroom. On both, the CNG kit is a retrofitment, fitted after the car leaves the factory line, rather than a factory-fitted CNG system built in on the production line.
That distinction matters. A retrofit kit is installed by an approved fitter, and Nissan says the kits on offer are government-approved. They also come with a third-party warranty of three years or 1,00,000 km, whichever comes first, in addition to the standard vehicle warranty. Ask the dealer, in writing, exactly what the warranty covers and who services the kit.
Which variants actually qualify
This is the part to check before you walk into a showroom with your heart set on the deal. On the Magnite, the free kit applies to eligible non-turbo variants only. Three base variants are left out: the Visia MT, Visia EZ-Shift and Visia+ MT. On the Gravite, the benefit is available on eligible Tekna variants.
In short, do not assume your preferred variant is covered. The safest route is to name the exact variant to the dealer, ask whether it is eligible, and get the answer noted on the booking form. The offer runs only on bookings made before 16 November 2026, so a late decision could cost you the full kit price.
- Magnite: free CNG kit worth Rs 74,999 on eligible non-turbo variants, excluding Visia MT, Visia EZ-Shift and Visia+ MT.
- Gravite: free CNG kit worth Rs 85,999 on eligible Tekna variants.
- Deadline: bookings must be made before 16 November 2026.
- Warranty: third-party cover of 3 years or 1,00,000 km, plus the standard vehicle warranty.
Why the Gravite kit is different
The Gravite gets the more interesting setup of the two. Nissan calls it a segment-first smart twin-cylinder CNG solution, using two 25-litre cylinders instead of one large tank. The idea is simple and practical: a single big cylinder in a seven-seater usually eats into boot space or forces a compromise on seating, but splitting the gas across two smaller cylinders lets the Gravite keep its full seven-seat layout and everyday usability.
For a family car, that is the whole point. A seven-seater bought for school runs and weekend trips is no use if the CNG tank turns it into a five-seater in practice. The Magnite, by contrast, gets a single-cylinder setup in the boot, the more conventional arrangement for a compact SUV. Buyers should still look at the boot with the kit fitted before signing.
What to check before you book
A free kit is only a good deal if the car suits you anyway, so treat this offer as a sweetener, not a reason to buy. First, confirm variant eligibility and kit availability at your local dealer. Second, ask about waiting time for fitment and whether delivery is delayed by the retrofit work. Third, check how servicing works for the CNG system.
It is also worth doing a quick running-cost comparison for your own driving. CNG makes the most sense for high daily running, city commutes and frequent highway trips. If your car mostly sits parked, the monthly saving will be smaller. The offer does not change the car itself, only the cost of adding CNG to it.
