All-New Nissan MPV (MVP) 2026 — Full Specification, Features & Expected Price

Nissan is gearing up for a major product revival in India, and one of the most anticipated launches is the all-new Nissan MPV (Multi-Purpose Vehicle) — also called the Nissan MVP in early reports — expected to arrive in early 2026.

This vehicle is strategically aimed at the growing family car segment, combining practical space, modern features and an affordable price tag to appeal to Indian buyers who want a value-packed, spacious 7-seater. 

The new MPV marks a significant step for Nissan’s product offensive in India, part of a broader plan that also includes new SUVs and other models over the next few years. 

 

 

📅 Expected Launch Timeline

Although the official name and complete details are yet to be announced, multiple reports confirm that Nissan will unveil the new Nissan MPV on 18 December 2025, with showroom deliveries starting in early 2026 (likely January–March).

Unlike a heavily camouflaged prototype, spy shots and teasers suggest a distinctive Nissan design, with SUV-inspired accents that help it stand apart from mere rebadged siblings. 

 

 

🛠️ Platform & Build

The new Nissan MPV is based on the Renault–Nissan Alliance’s CMF-A+ platform, shared with the Renault Triber — a practical and proven under-bone architecture well-suited for compact family vehicles. This ensures strong reliability, cost efficiency and a familiar powertrain package.

However, Nissan’s version gets unique styling, a refreshed cabin, and brand-specific features that differentiate it from the Triber at both looks and experience levels.

 

 

🛠️ Engine & Performance

🔋 Powertrain

The MPV is expected to use the 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine already seen in the Renault Triber, a proven and reliable mill for city and highway driving:

  • Engine Displacement: 999 cc, 3-cylinder petrol
     
  • Power Output: ~72 PS @ 6250 rpm
     
  • Torque: ~96 Nm @ 3400–3600 rpm
     
  • Transmission: 5-speed Manual or 5-speed AMT (Automated Manual Transmission)
     
  • Drivetrain: Front-Wheel Drive (FWD)
    (Estimates based on Renault Triber specs and confirmed shared platform info)

     

⚙️ Performance & Practicality

This engine is tuned more for efficiency and low-end driveability than outright power. Expect smooth city driving, easy manoeuvrability, and respectable fuel economy — ideal for family use and daily commutes.

🛵 Mileage / Fuel Efficiency

While Nissan hasn’t shared ARAI figures yet, this powertrain in similar vehicles typically returns around 18–20 km/l in real-world conditions. Given its lightweight platform and small petrol engine, similar mileage can be expected once the official figures come out.

 

 

🧰 Dimensions & Space

Although official dimensions are not yet published, the MPV is expected to be:

  • sub-4-metre vehicle (under 4 m in length),
     
  • 7-seater layout with flexible modular seating,
     
  • Generous second- and third-row space for family comfort,
     
  • Smart interior packaging with abundant storage and utility options,
     

This creates a highly practical family car especially suited for Indian roads, where compact exterior size and roomy interior are both valuable.

 

 

🎨 Exterior & Design

Visually, the new Nissan MPV stands out from its Renault sibling thanks to Nissan’s distinct design language. Teasers and spy shots suggest:

✔ Bold front grille with hexagonal design and Nissan logo
✔ Projector headlamps with LED DRLs
✔ Functional roof rails for luggage or utility accessory mounting
✔ Stylish new alloys that break away from Triber’s look
✔ A more SUV-like bumper and body sculpting that gives it a modern presence

This styling helps the MPV feel more like a family SUV-inspired people mover, aligning with current aesthetics and buyer preferences.

 

 

🧠 Interior & Features

Inside, the Nissan MPV promises a feature-rich environment that makes long journeys comfortable and tech-friendly:

🖥️ Infotainment & Connectivity

  • 8-inch touchscreen infotainment with wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay
    Semi-digital or fully digital instrument cluster,
    USB ports and ample connectivity for passengers,
  • Wireless phone charging (on select trims),

     

🪑 Comfort & Practicality

  • Modular 7-seat layout with slide & recline functions
  • Rear AC vents and cooling options,
  • Cooled central storage box,
  • Adjustable seating configurations for luggage or passengers,

     

🔐 Safety Features

Expect a solid safety suite with:

  • Dual front airbags
    ABS with EBD,
  • Rear parking sensors,
  • ISOFIX child seat mounts,
  • Electronic Stability Control (on higher variants),

Such equipment makes the MPV a reliable choice for families, even on longer trips.

 

 

💰 Expected Price (India)

Pricing for the all-new Nissan MPV is likely to be very competitive, aiming directly at value-conscious buyers in the MPV segment. Based on current reports and comparisons with the Renault Triber (₹5.7–₹8.9 lakh ex-showroom), Nissan’s naturally positioned model is expected to cost slightly above that.

🔹 Expected Ex-Showroom Price

  • Base Variant: ₹6.0 – ₹7.5 Lakh
     
  • Mid Variant: ₹7.5 – ₹8.5 Lakh
     
  • Top Variant: ₹8.5 – ₹9.5 Lakh

     

🔹 Estimated On-Road Price

In major cities like Delhi, Mumbai or Bangalore, on-road prices could range from ₹7.2 – ₹11.0 Lakh depending on insurance, RTO, and variant choice.

This price positioning makes the Nissan MPV a strong competitor against rivals such as the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, Toyota Rumion and Kia Carens — especially for budget-minded families seeking space, comfort and modern features all in one package.

 

 

📍 Why This MPV Could Be a Game-Changer

The all-new Nissan MPV isn’t just another 7-seater. It represents Nissan’s renewed focus on India’s high-growth segments and a strategic use of Renault-Nissan alliance platforms to deliver value. With its practical engine, smart interior features, comfortable seating, and affordable pricing, this MPV is poised to reshape Nissan’s fortunes in the family car space and give buyers a compelling alternative in the crowded MPV market.
