Nissan India has recently introduced its Magnite SUV in a new avatar. In the Indian market, this SUV will compete with cars like the Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, and Maruti Suzuki Fronx. However, the Swift has also been updated recently. Let's take a look at both the Swift and Magnite.

The price of the 2024 Maruti Suzuki Swift ranges between ₹6.49 lakh and ₹9.64 lakh. On the other hand, the 2024 Nissan Magnite still starts at ₹5.99 lakh and goes up to ₹11.50 lakh for the top variant.
It is important to note that these starting prices for the Magnite are introductory and will only apply to the first 10,000 customers. After that, the prices will be revised. Interestingly, despite being in a higher segment, the Magnite is ₹50,000 cheaper.

The Nissan Magnite is an SUV and larger than the Maruti Suzuki Swift, with a longer wheelbase as well. The Swift's length is 3860 mm, width is 1735 mm, and height is 1520 mm, with a wheelbase of 2450 mm. It offers 265 liters of boot space and a ground clearance of 163 mm

The Swift comes with fabric upholstery, while the Magnite features leatherette upholstery with soft-touch materials covering the dashboard. Both cars offer keyless entry with a push-button start-stop, cruise control, and a wireless phone charger. Additionally, both Swift and Magnite are equipped with six airbags as standard.
