Nissan Motor India today commenced bookings for the automated manual transmission (AMT) version of its compact sports utility vehicle Terrano which will be available for about Rs 13.75-13.85 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).

The SUV, which comes with 6-speed diesel AMT, is based on the top-of-the-line XVD premium grade. Customers can pre-book their cars with a deposit of Rs 25,000 at Nissan dealerships.

Along with the addition of AMT, the Terrano range gets as many as 14 new enhancements, spread across model variants.

These include electrically folding exterior rear-view mirrors with integrated turn signals, anti-pinch driver side windows, a new driver armrest, soft touch plastics on the dashboard and door.
