Design & Positioning

Teasers released in late 2025 show the Gravite with a bold, confident stance featuring Nissan's signature V-motion grille, sleek LED headlights, and a strong shoulder line running the length of the body. It emphasizes a modern, purposeful look with updated front and rear fascia compared to the Triber. The name "Gravite" symbolizes stability, balance, and togetherness rooted in the aspirations of India's 1.4 billion people and designed specifically for Indian households.

Inside, expect a refreshed dashboard layout with feel-good features, including:

•  7-inch digital instrument cluster
  
•  8-inch touchscreen infotainment
  
• Modular seating for flexible cabin space 
• Emphasis on comfort and practicality for family use
  

Powertrain & Efficiency

Powering the Gravite will be the familiar 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine (shared with the Triber), producing around 72 PS and 96 Nm of torque. Transmission options are likely to include a 5-speed manual and AMT (automated manual) for ease in city traffic. Rumors suggest a CNG variant could be offered to appeal to cost-conscious buyers in fuel-price-sensitive markets.

Fuel efficiency is expected to hover in the 18–20 kmpl range (ARAI), making it competitive in the segment for daily commutes and long family trips.
