Engine and Transmission Details
The Gravite shares its bones with the Renault Triber. Same 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine. No turbo drama. No fancy hybrid tech. Just a straightforward motor pushing out about 72 PS and 96 Nm. It’s not fast. But it’s honest.
Now comes the part most buyers actually care about Nissan Gravite transmission options. And this is where things get interesting.
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Engine | 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder Naturally Aspirated Petrol |
| Power Output | 72 PS |
| Torque | 96 Nm |
| Transmission Options | 5-speed Manual (MT) / 5-speed AMT |
| Claimed Fuel Efficiency | 19.3 kmpl (MT) / 19.6 kmpl (AMT) |
Variant-wise Gearbox Options
Every single variant gets a 5-speed manual gearbox. Yes, across the lineup. If you enjoy shifting gears yourself, you’re sorted. The clutch is light, throws are decent, and for daily city runs it does the job. No complaints. But what if you want convenience? Traffic is brutal these days. For that, Nissan Gravite transmission in AMT form is available but only in the higher trims. The N-Connecta and Tekna get the AMT. The lower Visia and Acenta? Manual only. That’s it. Clear split.
Some buyers were expecting a Nissan Gravite CVT. Smooth. Seamless. Effortless. But no, Nissan has kept it simple. AMT is the only automatic choice for now. Maybe later things change. Maybe not. Talking about Nissan Gravite variants, the structure is easy to understand. Visia is basic. Acenta adds more comfort. N-Connecta starts feeling premium. Tekna is the fully loaded one. Engine remains same everywhere. Gearbox choice changes depending on how much you pay. That’s the real Gravite transmission guide in one line.
Features and Rivals
Feature list is surprisingly solid. You get an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A digital driver display. Rear AC vents. Push-button start. Six airbags as standard which is impressive at this price point. Safety includes ABS, ESC and a reverse camera. For a budget family MPV, that’s decent coverage.

In the market, it stands directly against the Renault Triber. But price positioning also puts it below bigger names like the Maruti Ertiga and Kia Carens. So yes, it plays smartly. At the end of the day, the Gravite is not trying to be flashy. It’s practical. Sensible. Slightly basic, maybe. But for families who just want space, low running cost and a choice between manual or AMT, it makes sense. Simple car. Clear options. No confusion.
