Overview
- Nissan Motor India, which launched the dealer-installed kit Monday, set an introductory price of ₹82,999 and opened sales through authorised dealerships in 60 cities across 16 states.
- The retrofit uses two 25-litre cylinders stacked vertically in the boot, keeping all three rows usable for seven passengers but leaving little to no luggage space.
- The system is ICAT approved and BS6.2 sequential, features 8.1 mm cylinder walls, includes Dynamic Advancer Technology, and places the CNG filling point under the fuel lid for a factory-like finish.
- The Gravite keeps its 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with a 5-speed manual, while Nissan has not disclosed CNG mileage and has not confirmed AMT compatibility with the kit.
- Motozen developed and quality-assured the setup, and kit components carry a third-party warranty of three years or 100,000 km, with Nissan pitching the option to families and commuters in established CNG markets seeking lower running costs.
