Nissan Tekton SUV Launched in India
The Tekton is Nissan'sfirst compact SUV for India since the discontinuation of the Nissan Kicks a few
years ago. It draws from Nissan's 75 years of SUV expertise, combining
high-value design with advanced technology and engineering. Here are the key
things to know about the newly unveiled Nissan Tekton.
Patrol-Inspired Design
Viewed from the side, the Tekton carries a robust boxy silhouette with newly designed 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, large black wheel arches, Patrol-inspired twin-carved door lines, chrome strips, blacked-out ORVMs and roof, adding to its premium appearance. At the rear, C-shaped LED tail lamps are connected by a light bar with prominent Tekton badging. Matching silver skid plates complement the black bumper, giving the SUV a neatly finished rear profile. Measuring 4.3 metres in length with a class-leading ground clearance of 212 mm.
Excellent Cabin Comfort
Inside, the Tekton balances premiumness, space, and comfort to deliver an elevated experience for passengers. The cabin features an infinity panoramic sunroof, a modern dashboard, and a dual-tone black-and-white interior theme that gives it a bright and sophisticated feel. The SUV also borrows the three-spoke steering wheel from the Duster, finished with piano black inserts for a high-quality touch. Toggle switches for various controls and functions further boost the cabin's modern layout.Convenience Features
The Tekton comes equipped with several convenience features, including dual-zone climate control, an air purifier, 6-way powered ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, rear AC vents, a powered tailgate, keyless entry with a push-button start/stop system, and centre console storage.Additionally, it offers a 10.1-inch
touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay,
wireless charging, a 6-speaker Arkamys sound system, and a 10.25-inch digital
instrument cluster with custom layouts and navigation functionality.
Intelligent Google-Powered Connectivity
A highlight of the cabin is Nissan's Google-built,
driver-centric dual-screen infotainment system. Without connecting a
smartphone, users can access Google Maps, Gemini AI, Google Play, and Google
Assistant. The system also supports more than 55 connected features through
Nissan-specific applications and can receive over-the-air (OTA) software
updates.
