Over 6,000 Nissan Terrano SUVs already booked!

Nissan India has received over 6,000 pre-bookings for the recently launched Terrano, as the company had started taking pre-orders for the car a month before it was launched. Launched at a starting price of Rs 9.58 lakh (ex-showroom, Chennai), the car has some in a total three engine options and 7 variants.

Based on the company's JV partner Renault's successful Duster, Terrano shares most parts and components with the former. However, the car has gone through a major design change, which set both apart. Just like Duster, Terrano has been made available in all three engine options- 85PS diesel, 110PS diesel and 104PS petrol. While the 85PS diesel and 104PS come mated to a five-speed manual transmission, the top-of the line 110PS trim has six-speed manual transmission gearbox.

Speaking at the launch event yesterday, Mr. Kenichiro Yomura, President, Nissan India Operations, said, “Terrano perfectly embodies our spirit of delivering innovation and excitement to our customers. It proudly carries forward the legacy established by our SUVs like Pathfinder and Patrol. We are confident that Terrano’s stylish exterior, premium interior and a well-balanced dynamic package will appeal to SUV lovers in India. Terrano is an important product for us and will set the pace for future product launches slated for 2014.”

Mr. Nitish Tipnis, Director – Sales & Marketing, Hover Automotive India (National Sales Company for Nissan in India) said, “Our combined efforts have paid off with the initial feedback and encouragement we have received through the quantum of bookings clocked in the pre-sales period. With the expansion of our dealership network nationwide, we will continue growing within the market and look forward to a promising year with the Terrano being one of the most successful products ever launched in our product portfolio.”
