Exterior Design
The Gravite shares its silhouette with the Triber. However, Nissan has added its own design touches. The front gets a bold honeycomb grille. 'GRAVITE' lettering sits proudly on the bonnet.
Slim LED DRLs are connected by a chrome strip. The rear gets wraparound LED tail lamps with a connecting chrome strip. C-shaped silver accents feature on both bumpers. The MPV rides on 15-inch stylised steel wheels.
Five colour options are available. These include Forest Green, Onyx Black, and Storm White.
Interior and Features
The dashboard layout is clean and familiar. It uses a dual-tone black and beige theme. An 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system sits in the centre. It supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A 7-inch digital driver's display is offered. Manual AC with three-row vents ensures cabin comfort.
Eight AC vents in total keep all passengers cool. A wireless phone charger is available. The Launch Edition adds extra goodies. These include a dual dashcam, JBL speakers, and ambient lighting.
Safety Kit
Safety is a strong point. Six airbags are standard across all variants. Electronic stability control and hill start assist are included. Traction control and ABS with EBD are standard. Rear parking sensors with a camera are offered. A tyre pressure monitoring system is also available.
Nissan Gravite Powertrain
Power comes from a 1-litre three-cylinder petrol engine. It produces 72 PS and 96 Nm of torque.
Two transmission choices are available. These are a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed AMT. Fuel efficiency is claimed at 19.3 kmpl for the manual. The AMT returns a slightly higher 19.6 kmpl.
A Question of Power
The Gravite's price is incredibly tempting. But its 72 PS engine raises a practical concern. Will it feel adequate with seven people on board? The engine might struggle on highways with a full load.
The Nissan Gravite is a compelling value proposition. It offers seven seats and strong safety at a hatchback price.
If your driving is mostly city-based, it makes strong sense. Just be realistic about its highway performance with a full family.
