Upcoming Nissan MPV Spied Testing in India – Launch Likely in 2026
The upcoming Nissan MPV spied testing in India has given us our first real look at the compact 7-seater. Expected to launch by 2026, this new MPV is Nissan’s answer to the popular Renault Triber and is aimed at families looking for budget-friendly practicality.
Exterior & Design Insights
Spy shots show the test mule with heavy camouflage but key details are visible. A large cascading grille dominates the front fascia with sleek lighting inspired by the updated Triber. The stepped roofline hints at improved headroom for third-row passengers, while stylised 15-inch wheels add a premium touch.
Roof rails, a roof spoiler, and a muscular side profile highlight Nissan’s effort to give this MPV a strong road presence. At the rear, expect LED tail lamps with unique Nissan styling touches.
Interior Features & Seating Layout
The Nissan sub-4m MPV spied is expected to feature a flexible three-row layout. The third row will likely be removable, offering better boot flexibility when needed.
Inside, Nissan is likely to differentiate it from the Renault Triber with a unique dashboard layout and trims. Features could include a large touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay, rear AC vents, wireless charging, push-button start, and reclining 2nd and 3rd row seats.
Engine & Transmission Options
The upcoming Nissan MPV is expected to share engines with the Triber facelift. That means a 1.0-litre 3-cylinder NA petrol motor with 5-speed manual and AMT options. However, Nissan may also introduce the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine to make it more competitive in performance.
Launch Timeline & Rivals
The upcoming Nissan MPV spied testing is set for launch sometime in 2026. Positioned in the sub-4m MPV category, it will directly take on the Renault Triber, while also being an affordable alternative to larger MPVs like the Maruti Ertiga and Toyota Rumion.
With growing demand for budget-friendly 7-seaters, Nissan’s new MPV could emerge as a serious contender if priced aggressively.
