Nissan South Africa has launched the New Model Year X-Trail and the limited-edition Magnite Kuro, marking significant milestones in its product strategy for 2025.

These additions bolster Nissan commitment to the local market by combining advanced technology with family-oriented features.

The automaker has further solidified its presence in the local automotive landscape with the launch of the New Model Year X-Trail and the exclusive Magnite Kuro Black Edition.

These releases represent the fourth and fifth major introductions for 2025, following the successful rollout of the PRO-4X Warrior and Stealth variants of the Navara, along with the versatile Magnite Move panel van.

In a bold addition, the limited-edition Magnite Kuro is set to captivate consumers with its striking black exterior accents and exclusive design elements.

Built on the popular N-Connect trim, this edition is powered by Nissan’s efficient HRA0 1.0-litre turbocharged engine, delivering a spirited driving experience tailored for both urban and highway settings.

Maciej Klenkiewicz, Managing Director for Nissan South Africa and Independent Markets Africa, emphasised the company’s mission to diversify its offerings.

“With this string of new industry-leading arrivals, Nissan is placing more choice and buying power in the hands of South Africans across every major car segment,” he stated.

Both vehicles align with Nissan’s commitment to safety, with the Magnite range having achieved a commendable 5-star Global NCAP rating.

The X-Trail and Magnite Kuro not only offer advanced safety systems but also cater to the evolving demands of South African drivers, solidifying Nissan’s reputation as a leader in the automotive industry.

With the introduction of these models, Nissan continues to enhance its portfolio, providing consumers with safe, technologically advanced vehicles that meet their day-to-day needs while supporting the growth of the local automotive industry.
