The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • 212 mm ground clearance is among the highest in the midsize SUV segment, well ahead of most direct rivals
  • 163 PS/280 Nm 1.3-litre turbo-petrol with a 6-speed DCT is a genuinely strong powertrain option for the class
  • 17+ ADAS features including adaptive cruise control and a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating bring real safety credibility at this price

Worth knowing

  • Base 1.0-litre T160 engine is limited to a manual gearbox only, no automatic option at entry-level price points
  • Brand-new nameplate with no resale-value track record yet in a segment dominated by established players like the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos

Source Notes / Discrepancies

Source Notes Nissan's Creta-fighter C-SUV, built in India with Renault, launched 9 Jul 2026 with deliveries from 20 Jul 2026. Boot space is disputed between sources: Nissan India's own launch materials and CarDekho's news coverage state 700 litres (seats up), while CarDekho's separate specifications page states 518 litres (1,789 litres seats-folded); both figures are reported here rather than silently picking one. Manual gearbox is stated as 6-speed by Nissan India and CarDekho's news coverage, but as 5-speed on CarDekho's own specifications page; 6-speed is used above as the figure corroborated by the manufacturer's own launch materials. Sources: Nissan India official press release, CarDekho. Photo check 30 Sep 2026: Nissan India's Tekton launch page (nissan.in/cf/vehicles/new/tekton, a JS-rendered Storyblok site) publishes real front three-quarter studio cut-outs on a plain white backdrop for all 6 colours, used here as hero (Pearl White) and colour images; Flare Garnet Red and other trims are shown with their factory dual-tone roof as published. No clean interior shots were found (available interior images are feature-callout crops or include the brand ambassador); interior gallery left empty.
