Nissan Motor India is strategically shifting its focus from being a predominantly export-oriented operation to significantly boosting its domestic sales with a new product offensive. Recent figures for February 2026 revealed a substantial imbalance, with exports at 8,335 units compared to only 2,230 units sold domestically.
To address this, Nissan plans to introduce three new models. Following the recent commencement of deliveries for the Gravite MPV, which has shown strong initial booking momentum, the company will launch the Tekton mid-size SUV by mid-2026. This will be a direct competitor to popular models like the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos, indicating a determined effort to capture a larger share of the Indian passenger vehicle market.
