Nissan Magnite – Difference Between Old and New Scores
The pre-facelift Nissan Magnite received a 4-star AOP and 2-star COP rating under the old Global NCAP standards (pre-2022).
Nissan then made changes – making 6 airbags and ESC standard across all variants.
As a result of these improvements, the Magnite has now received a 5-star safety rating under the new Global NCAP protocol.
