New seven-seater SUV Nissan Tekton spotted in testing; design and engine changes expected

Nissan Motor India is preparing to introduce a new vehicle to the Indian market. Following the release of the Nissan Gravite and Nissan Tekton models, the company plans to develop a larger SUV.

This SUV was spotted during testing on Indian roads. While the Gravite and Tekton attracted public attention, Nissan began preparations for the launch of the seven-seater version of the Tekton. This new vehicle is an expanded version of the existing Tekton, which has also undergone trials previously.

The seven-seater Nissan Tekton has appeared publicly before, but this is the first time its front and rear light signatures have been observed. The company intends to give this car a different look compared to the five-seater Tekton. However, the company has not yet provided specific information about its launch.

After the launch of the Tekton, Nissan sales increased. The company released this model in July, although sales were lower in August than in July. Nevertheless, the company's sales figures in August are better than in August of last year. The appearance of the seven-seater SUV is expected to further boost the company's sales.

The seven-seater SUV will feature a unique rear LED light in the Nissan. Instead of S-shaped lights, 'boomerang'-style lights pointing downwards will be used. Additionally, both rear lights will be connected by an LED strip, giving the car a bolder appearance. At the time of filming, the SUV was covered with camouflage wrap.

Observations suggest that this vehicle is approximately 300 mm larger than the current Tekton. In the front, it will be equipped with inverted LED daytime running lights and reflectors similar to the Tekton. The front of the car may feature a new grille, a redesigned bumper, and other new elements.

Regarding the engine, it will not feature the 1.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine. The company might release this vehicle with a 1.3-liter turbocharged gasoline engine. There is also a possibility that the company will offer it with a 1.8-liter naturally aspirated gasoline engine and a hybrid system, although these engines are not used in the Tekton.

Renault Triber Turbo is preparing for release to compete with Maruti Suzuki Ertiga due to fuel efficiency and affordability

Those planning to purchase a new family car are advised to wait a little longer, as several new models are expected to be released in the Indian market in the coming days. Among them is the Renault Triber Turbo, which has long been in demand by consumers.

Although the company has not announced a precise launch date for this model, there are speculations that the release could happen before the Diwali festival. Despite lacking a direct competitor in the market, considering the budget and cabin capacity, its main competition will be with the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga.

The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is one of the best-selling seven-seater MPVs, chosen by buyers for its CNG compatibility, good fuel economy, and large space. Although many people also buy the Renault Triber, they often complain about the engine of this vehicle.

It is anticipated that the company may equip this model with a turbocharged gasoline engine. The possibility of installing a 1.0-liter three-cylinder turbo-petrol engine, which is also used in the Kiger and Nissan Magnite models, is being discussed. There is currently no information on whether Renault will tune this engine specifically for the Triber. In the Kiger, this engine develops 100 hp and 160 Nm of torque.

With the new engine, the company might offer a five-speed manual transmission and a CVT. Additionally, the possibility of releasing the Renault Triber with a factory CNG kit is being discussed. The company could potentially use a two-cylinder CNG system, and only the manual transmission would be offered with the CNG kit.

Currently, the Triber is equipped with a 1.0-liter naturally aspirated three-cylinder engine. The car's price ranges from 5.81 to 8.53 lakh at the export price. It is expected that the introduction of the turbocharged engine will lead to an increase in the car's price. Although the release date is unknown, the company might present it by the end of next month.

Hyundai introduces remote immobilizer feature for Venue and Venue N-Line SUVs

Hyundai Motor India has announced the implementation of a special feature for its compact SUVs, the Venue and Venue N-Line. The company has equipped these models with a remote immobilizer function that can be activated via smartphone when the vehicle is parked.

This feature is named Hyundai Bluelink Remote Immobiliser and will be introduced through an update to the Hyundai Controller Over-The-Air software. This means customers will not need to visit a service center to activate this technology.

The company states that this technology is designed to prevent vehicle theft. Even if intruders manage to get inside the car, stealing it will become significantly more difficult.

The remote immobilizer can be turned on through the Hyundai Bluelink app on a smartphone when the vehicle is stationary. Upon activation of this feature, several vehicle systems will cease to function, and restarting these functions will require a full authentication procedure without authorization.

Even if the car has been stolen and this feature was not initially activated, it can be enabled. The company positions this as a necessary protective mechanism. It is important to note that the remote immobilizer cannot disable the vehicle while it is in motion; it activates after the vehicle stops and the engine is turned off.

Thus, if someone steals the car and drives it, the feature will not work while moving. However, it will activate after stopping and turning off the engine. To enable this feature, one does not need to contact the Bluelink center. Furthermore, the Bluelink app will display the vehicle's real-time location.

It should be noted that the functionality of all these features depends on factors such as electrical power, wiring, and network connectivity.

This feature is available for the CCNC HX 10 and Venue N-Line N10 variants of the Hyundai Venue model. The company has stated that all corresponding units sold after November 2025 will receive this feature via OTA update. Furthermore, this feature will become standard for the relevant modifications in September 2026.
