The Nissan Magnite has just been showcased in the Kuro edition in India. Its new AMT version was also revealed alongside the special edition. The Kuro edition was born out of the collaboration between Nissan and the International Cricket Council (ICC) for the upcoming Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023. Both are expected to go on sale sometime in October.

The special edition of the SUV comes in a stealthy black shade, with a blacked-out grille, alloys, and red brake callipers. It also features Kuro badging on the front fenders. 

The insides get an all-black design as well. The blacked-out treatment continues on elements like the seat covers, door handles, steering wheel, and AC vents. 

As the Kuro Edition is based on the higher-end variant of the Magnite, it comes with features like an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless phone charger, 360-degree camera and rear AC vents.
