Nissan Unveils Tekton, Its CMF-B C-SUV for India, Targeting Mid-2026 Launch

The model anchors Nissan’s India revival strategy through Chennai production serving domestic buyers plus select export markets.

Overview

  • Nissan formally named the SUV Tekton and released production-ready design teasers, confirming an India on-sale timeline in the April–June 2026 window.
  • The vehicle is based on the CMF-B architecture shared with the next-generation Renault Duster and will be manufactured at the Renault–Nissan plant in Chennai.
  • Design cues are inspired by the Patrol, featuring C-shaped LED signatures and an upright stance, while interior previews signal a premium dashboard with soft-touch materials.
  • Media report expected features such as a large touchscreen, digital cluster, connected-car tech, 360-degree camera and driver-assistance systems, with AWD under evaluation, but Nissan has not confirmed these specifications.
  • Outlets suggest a petrol-led lineup with a likely 1.3-litre turbo and a later hybrid option plus indicative pricing in roughly the Rs 11–18 lakh ex-showroom band, with final powertrains, trims and prices yet to be announced.
