The upcoming Nissan Terrano will give your left leg a break
The Nissan Terrano AMT will be offered in XL Plus and XV Premium variants.
Nissan India has been putting out teasers hinting at the launch of a new model of its Terrano SUV. With more than one teaser video on the automaker's social media handles, it's easy to conclude that Nissan is bringing its Terrano AMT to Indian roads soon.According to ZigWheels, the Terrano AMT will pack in the same automatic transmission that is available on the Renault Duster. What has not been confirmed is whether Nissan has any plans to turn the Terrano into a serious 4x4 compact SUV. This is because apart from the new automatic transmission, pretty much everything else is expected to remain the same, which also mean no all wheel drive.![Nissan Terrano AMT front chin up]()
