New Nissan Gravite sells 2,603 units since launch, outsells Renault Triber in March

The Gravite compact MPV, Nissan Motor India’s newest model launched in mid-February, has sold 2,375 units in March 2026. This, along with the 228 units in February 2026, takes total Gravite factory dispatches (wholesales) since launch to 2,603 units. Customer deliveries of the Gravite commenced last month.

In March, the Gravite (2,375 units) outsold the Nissan Magnite compact SUV (2,033 units) by 342 units to be the company’s No. 1 model and had a 54% share of the 4,408 Nissans sold last month.

Importantly, last month, the Nissan Gravite, which is the badge-engineered avatar of the Renault Triber, outsold the Triber (2,011 units, up 30% YoY) by 364 units. Nissan India will be hoping the Gravite, which is currently the most affordable MPV in India (priced Rs 11,000 lower than the Renault Triber’s Rs 576,000), maintains the same sales momentum this year and beyond. The introductory pricing though is applicable only to the first 5,000 bookings and is likely to increase in future.

The launch of a brand-new model has clearly had a positive impact on Nissan Motor India’s monthly market performance, what with March 2026 wholesales being the company’s highest monthly domestic market dispatches in the last five years. In FY2026, Nissan Motor India sold a total of 24,300 units, down 13% YoY (FY2025: 27,881 units), which gives the new Gravite an 11% share of the company’s wholesales in less than two months of its launch.

The Gravite, like the brilliantly packaged Renault MPV, comes with practical three-row, flexible (5+2 configuration) seating and family-oriented features aimed to draw affordable MPV buyers.

The Gravite, based on the same CMF-A platform which spawned the Renault Triber, is powered by a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated engine that develops 76hp and 95 Nm torque and comes paired with either a five-speed manual or five-seat AMT transmission. Nissan India claims the Gravite delivers mileage of 19.3kpl and 19.6kpl in AMT guise.

On the features front, the Nissan Gravite gets a 7-inch semi-digital instrument cluster, an 8-inch touchscreen, wireless phone charging, push-button start/stop and manual AC with vents for the second and third rows. Gravite users also get wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, push-button start/stop, cruise control, automatic LED headlamps and rain-sensing wipers. In terms of safety, the Gravite gets six airbags, ABS, traction control, hill-hold assist, TPMS and rear camera.

On April 6, in a strategic move aimed at showcasing its readiness to achieve new growth, Nissan Motor India announced the opening of 54 new customer touchpoints across the country in the first quarter of CY2026. They comprise a mix of 3S (Sales, Service and Spare Parts), 2S and 1S facilities.

Will the Gravite compact MPV, which is to be joined by the Renault-Duster-based Nissan Tekton midsize SUV in mid-2026, build gravitas for the Nissan Motor India in the competitive Indian utility vehicle market in FY2027and beyond? It’s early days yet . . . so stay tuned to Autocar Professional as we keep you regularly updated on the sales trends.
