Nissan India confirms Terrano AMT arrival; to be launched soon

Nissan India has started the teaser campaign for the Terrano AMT, confirming that the new avatar of the SUV would hit the market soon. The company has teased the Terrano AMT on its social media pages with the tagline 'Coming soon'.

While the teasers released by the company do not reveal any details about the upcoming Terrano AMT, recent reports have said that Nissan Terrano will also get a mild-facelift in the AMT avatar. The changes in the Terrano facelift is likely to be limited to visual modifications such as restyled front fascia with new bumpers and grille. The new avatar of the Terrano is also expected to include features such as touchscreen infotainment system.

The Terrano AMT has been in news since the launch of Renault Duster AMT. The Terrano is likely to get the same six-speed automated manual transmission (AMT) as the Duster.

The SUV is currently powered by a 1.6-litre petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engines. While the petrol Terrano churns out 102bhp of power and 145Nm of torque, the diesel variants come in two states of tune — 84bhp/200Nm and 108bhp/248Nm.

The Terrano is now offered in four variants in India— the petrol (XL), XE diesel 85hp, XL Plus diesel 85hp and 110hp XV Premium after removing the 85hp diesel XL, 110hp diesel XL and 110hp diesel XV trims from the list recently. It is not sure which of the variants of the Terrano would get AMT.
