Nissan Magnite CNG On Road Price: In an era where petrol is almost ₹100 a liter, car purchasers are going out of their way to find CNG options to maintain running expenses. Even as CNG rose to ₹80/kg in Delhi-NCR, its popularity did not dip. One such vehicle that has been in the middle of all this is the Nissan Magnite—and after several months of wait, it’s finally going to receive a CNG version in May 2025.
The price of CNG in Delhi-NCR is currently well above ₹80/kg, but the demand for CNG-fueled cars is skyrocketing. Fans have been repeatedly requesting a CNG variant of the Nissan Magnite, and their patience is now going to pay off.
With months of evading answers, Nissan India has unofficially announced that the CNG model of the Magnite is ready to be launched. According to reliable sources, the CNG variants will be offered in naturally aspirated as well as turbocharged forms—presenting wider options for potential buyers.
Here’s the estimated ex-showroom price of several Nissan Magnite CNG variants:
Variant | Expected Price |
---|---|
XE (Base Variant – NA Engine | ₹7.25 lakh |
XL (Mid Variant – NA Engine) | ₹8.00 lakh |
XV (Turbocharged Variant) | ₹9.00 lakh |
XV Premium (Top Turbo) | ₹11.45 lakh |
The normally aspirated engine will produce approximately 70 BHP on CNG, while the turbocharged version will have up to 100 BHP, having lost only 1 BHP compared to its petrol equivalent.
Transmission choices are:
1. 5-speed Manual (Default on all CNG models)
2. AMT on petrol, but CNG versions can be manual only

The Magnite CNG should give a mileage of as much as 35 km/kg, which puts it in the class of the most fuel-efficient compact SUVs in the country. At existing fuel prices, this translates to a running cost as low as ₹2.3/km.
This puts the Magnite CNG directly at competition with Maruti, Hyundai, and Tata, all of whom have robust CNG offerings.
Unlike aftermarket kits that compromise on space and safety, Nissan’s setup is a professional CNG fitment, although it won’t be factory-fitted in the strictest sense. A 10kg single-cylinder tank will be fitted, avoiding the issues associated with dual-cylinder setups, like pressure drops and power loss.
This mirrors Maruti’s strategy and offers the best balance between boot space and CNG range.
The Nissan Magnite CNG will compete against Tata Punch CNG, one of the top 10 selling vehicles in India. Here’s how it compares:
Feature | Nissan Magnite CNG | Tata Punch CNG |
---|---|---|
Mileage | 35 km/kg (est.) | 27-28 km/kg (real) |
Boot Space | Slight compromise | Slight compromise |
Power (Turbo) | 100 BHP | No turbo version |
Infotainment System | 8″ with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto | Yes, but smaller |
Rear AC Vents | Yes | No |
Nissan’s CNG offering with both NA and turbo options puts it ahead of Tata and Maruti.
CNG will not make any sacrifices in creature comforts. Magnite CNG still has:
1. Rear AC vents
2. Touchscreen infotainment with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
3. Digital instrument cluster
4. Plush rear seat
5. ABS, EBD, dual airbags
Real sacrifice will be marginally smaller boot, but ride quality, mileage readout, and overall handling will remain premium.
The Nissan Magnite CNG isn’t merely a reaction to market demand–it’s a calculated gamble to provide value-conscious customers with a more efficient alternative without sacrificing features and performance.
With initial prices in the ₹7.25 lakh ballpark and turbo-charged CNG versions going all the way to ₹11.45 lakh, it’s apparent Nissan is looking to court both budget CNG customers and high-end CNG buyers. With fuel-efficient cars becoming increasingly in demand, Magnite CNG could just turn out to be the next sensation in India’s subcompact SUV category.
