Changes to be limited to cosmetics.

ET Auto reports that Nissan India is working on a mid-cycle facelift for the Nissan Terrano, which will launch this March. The information is divulged by a source close to the company, although Nissan is yet to confirm an intervention for any product.

Nissan Terrano front three quarters flat ground — Aiming to unlock new life, a full facelift could be planned for the Nissan Terrano.

The Terrano launched in October 2013 and hadn't received any cosmetic updates. Its French cousin, the Renault Duster, embraced a major facelift last year. Nissan introduced an AMT variant of the Terrano 1.5 diesel last October, and to sustain interest in the product, a complete facelift could be in order.

Details on the changes are scarce at the moment but expect a redesigned front fascia through new bumpers, revised grille and headlamps, new alloy wheels and updated taillamps. Inside, Nissan could introduce a touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth and Navigation, which is currently unavailable. The XE and XL grades could get a standard passenger-side airbag, although this is our speculation.

Transmission options are a 5-speed manual for the 1.6L petrol and 1.5L diesel (85 PS), a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed Easy-R AMT for the 1.5L diesel (110 PS).
