Now, existing owners will not be able to retro-fit the CNG kit, because the new Magnite is now E20 compliant and CNG-ready, while the older models are not. Saurabh Vatsa, Managing Director, Nissan Motor India The CNG kit will be fitted at the dealership and the Magnite will have a 12-kg single-cylinder for the same.

The CNG kit is of course government certified and Nissan along with Motozen will offer a 3-year and 1 lakh km warranty on the Nissan CNG.
