Athabasca oil sands

The Athabasca oil sands (also called the Athabasca tar sands or Alberta tar sands) are large deposits of bitumen or extremely heavy crude oil, located in northeastern Alberta, Canada – roughly centred on the boomtown of Fort McMurray. These oil sands, hosted primarily in the McMurray Formation, consist of a mixture of crude bitumen (a semi-solid form of crude oil), silica sand, clay minerals, and water. The Athabasca deposit is the largest known reservoir of crude bitumen in the world and the largest of three major oil sands deposits in Alberta, along with the nearby Peace River and Cold Lake deposits (the latter stretching into Saskatchewan).

Nissan Magnite facelift review: Small changes, big effect

It’s been nearly four years since Nissan brought the Magnite to India, and the compact SUV has shouldered the responsibility of establishing the Japanese brand's presence in the country. The X-Trail is a recent addition, serving more as a brand statement than a bread-and-butter model. Over the past six months, Nissan has despatched more than 12,000 units of the Magnite to its dealers (over 2,000 units every month) and has exported over 30,000 made-in-India models to international markets in the past four years.That the compact SUV will have to soldier on here, combined with the company's aim to export nearly 1 lakh units to 65 left-hand and right-hand-drive markets by 2026, underscores that a lot is riding on this facelift.

Nissan Magnite facelift: exterior, design

While the changes to the Magnite facelift’s design may seem insignificant when seen individually, together they add a dose of ruggedness to the compact SUV. The addition of a piano black appliqué that connects the grille and headlights makes the former look larger. The front bumper gets contrasting silver bits that protrude slightly, adding to the muscular appearance and also serving as fog light housings.

Facelift gets a more muscular-looking facia.

The new, smart-looking dual-tone 16-inch alloys add some freshness to the sides of the Magnite. The tail-lights get new 3D LED signatures that are quite attractive. Also, the Sunrise Copper Orange exterior colour is new and suits the Magnite well, especially with the contrasting black roof.

Nissan Magnite facelift: interior

It’s a similar story on the inside – there are small changes, but the effect is notable. The Magnite facelift’s cabin looks and feels far more premium, thanks to the copper-coloured leatherette finish on the dashboard and door panels, especially compared to the outgoing model’s nearly all-black plastic finish. The steering now gets an all-black finish that contrasts well with the dash, and the seats in the top-spec Tekna+ variant come in dual-tone copper-black leatherette covers that help keep one’s back and bottom cool, especially in conjunction with the strong automatic climate control system.

Leatherette on the dash and doors uplifts cabin tremendously compared to outgoing model.

However, not everything is perfect. The new ambient lights do add to the ambience, but the execution could have been a bit more seamless. In addition, the steering column is visible in the footwell, and the accelerator and brake pedals are placed a little too close together.

In terms of practicality and comfort, the Magnite facelift retains its ability to carry four passengers with ease – though three seated abreast in the back will find shoulder room lacking – and comes with a 336-litre boot, which is good enough for a couple of large suitcases, and expands to 690 litres with the rear seats folded.

Multi-colour ambient lighting feels a bit like an afterthought.
 

Nissan Magnite facelift: features

The faceliftcomes with a slightly expanded feature list. The Magnite has always been a well-equipped compact SUV, and it now adds goodies like engine remote start, auto headlights, an auto-dimming IRVM (the frameless unit picks up fingerprints and smudges too easily), a cooled glove box, and a USB C-Type port for rear passengers. The updated 7-inch digital instrument cluster is less gimmicky than that of the outgoing model, yet it displays the same amount of information, making it a welcome upgrade.

Updated 7-inch digital instrument cluster is less cartoon-ish, a welcome change.

The standard safety kit on every Magnite variant includes six airbags, three-point seat belts for all passengers, ISOFIX anchors, ABS, traction control, a tyre pressure monitor, and a hill-start assist. The higher Techna and Techna+ variants also get a 360-degree camera, which doesn’t have the best resolution but works effectively.

Nissan Magnite facelift: performance, ride and handling

The Magnite is still offered with either a 72hp, 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine or a 100hp, 1.0-litre turbo-petrol unit; we’ve driven the latter, and it’s just as enjoyable as before. This three-cylinder unit has a strong mid-range punch and works well with the smooth CVT to mask any lag at lower revs. Speaking of the CVT, at low and medium engine speeds, there’s barely any of that typical ‘rubber band’ effect, but if you drive with a heavy right foot, it will set in. Cabin insulation has improved marginally, but the three-pot engine’s clatter is still audible, and it gets boomier as the revs rise.

Punchy turbo-petrol and relatively light weight make the Magnite quicker than you'd expect.

At slower speeds, there is an underlying firmness to the Magnite’s suspension setup, but it doesn’t feel uncomfortable at any point. On the highway, the suspension does a much better job of filtering out road undulations, making it an able cruiser. What also helps is the steering that weighs up as the speeds rise, and the 195/60 tyres offer a decent amount of grip, instilling confidence when going through twisty ghat sections. On the other hand, despite doing a good job, the brakes don’t lend as much confidence as they should as the pedal feel is mushy, and there’s some slack before the brakes bite.

Nissan Magnite facelift: price, verdict

On the face of it, it may seem like not much has changed with the Magnite facelift, but that’s not true. It retains all the qualities of its predecessor –brilliant design, comfort, a sporty feel, and a well-equipped interior, all with an attractive price tag– while showing marked improvements in areas such as interior ambience and feel-good features.

 

Other than the visible cost-cutting and the lack of a sunroof at this price point (models such as the Venue, Nexon, and XUV 3XO offer one at the Rs 11.50 lakh that this top-spec Tekna + variant retails for), the Magnite is a more than competent package, especially when one considers that you pay just Rs 23,000 more for it compared to the outgoing model’s top-spec trim. The Magnite model should help Nissan maintain a foothold in India, at least for the near future.

Hyundai Santa Fe review: Style and substance

Hyundai says that it is unlikely to bring the new Santa Fe to India, but that doesn’t really come as a surprise. With pricing that matches luxury car levels, a mass market badge on the nose, and only space and roominess to play up as an advantage, Hyundai actually discontinued the Santa Fe in India after selling it here for two generations. But with the Ioniq 5 having sold 1,100 units and the Tucson getting more and more popular, is this a mistake on Hyundai’s part? Let’s take a closer look.

Rear portion of the Santa Fe has a very van-like design.

Hyundai Santa Fe exterior design

This new, more outdoors-oriented Santa Fe with its chunky look and more luxurious cabin is certainly more revolutionary than evolutionary. Although the new lines and fresh details impress, it seems like the design and concept stem from a blank sheet of paper rather than any previous Santa Fe. The nose is almost block-like, with ‘H’ pattern LED headlights – just like the Exter. It gets active vents that help it achieve an impressive drag coefficient of 0.29, and what also works well are the bulky and chamfered wheel arches. 

 

In profile you also see plenty of elements that are similar to the Land Rover Defender. This is especially true of the blacked-out pillars and the ‘floating’ roof finished in body colour. Interestingly, there’s a step hidden inside the pillar, right above the rear tyre, so you can easily climb up and clean the roof. Wonder if you can store a micro fibre cloth? While the nose and the profile work pretty well, walk around to the rear of the SUV and the Santa Fe has a very van-like treatment. Yes, the simplicity of the design works from afar, however, get closer and the oversized logo, model name and block-like design don’t really impress.

Hyundai Santa Fe interior

On the inside, most versions of the Santa Fe come with up to three rows of seats, but the 1.6 hybrid we are driving gets only two. While the cabin is extremely long, it isn’t very wide. The look and feel of the dash also borrows heavily from Land Rover and Range Rover. The steering, in fact, looks like it could have come directly from a Land Rover parts bin, and this is also true of the treatment of the top of the dash and the glovebox.

Easily one of Hyundai’s best SUV cabins, but there’s also plenty of Land Rover here.

What’s clear, however, is that the cabin works; it’s comfortable, quality levels are good and like all Hyundais, the Santa Fe comes with plenty of comfort enhancing, clever and cool features. The driver’s seat is easily adjustable and while the quality of the steering can’t quite match that of the original, the dash is beautifully built and material quality is good enough to make this one of the nicest Hyundai’s I’ve been in. I particularly like the raised and boxed in central console with its twin charging pads. There’s also loads of storage, both above and below the central console, and what I especially like is the beautifully curved instrument panel and touchscreen, which is perfectly angled for the driver. The second row seats are also comfortable. Set at a height with theatre seating, the view out and back support is good, and while the bench could have been more accommodating and longer in squab, it is a comfortable place to be. The boot opening is wide too and easy to load and load up.

Hyundai Santa Fe driving

The Santa Fe is an extremely relaxing car to drive. Part of this is down to the position of the driver’s seat: the view out and how easy it is to access the steering wheel. What also works well is the fact that the controls are nicely weighted and the electric boost from the hybrid system makes taking off from rest feel effortless.

Steering is very similar to Land Rover design.

The strong hybrid system that powered the Santa Fe we were driving blends a 1.6-litre turbo-petrol engine with an electric motor. With 180hp and 265Nm of torque, this front-wheel drive version pulls forward comfortably at most speeds. Performance isn’t electrifying, pun intended, and this isn’t an SUV for those interested in speed and performance.

While initial responses and acceleration are good, the 1.6 hybrid can’t sustain the thrust as you pull it harder. Sure, power delivery when the turbo chimes in is good, but keep your foot down after and performance flattens out, and the engine sounds strained. While gearshifts are smooth and imperceptible for the most part, acceleration is only good for a 0-100 time of 9.5 seconds, not something to write home about.

Gear selector has a nice chrome finish. 

The Santa Fe is also not an SUV that likes to be hustled. The tall stance, relatively narrow track and long wheelbase mean you need to use progressively more lock on tighter corners; drive it hard and it’s clear you are giving the chassis too much to do. Ride quality, however, is pretty good, with it being supple and soft initially and soaking up most bad sections nicely. There is a bit of up and down movement at speed, and sharp edged-bumps do register with a thud.

Hyundai Santa Fe verdict

It’s a relaxed and easy going SUV to drive.

On the face of it this looks like the perfect SUV for India: big, comfy, available with an efficient hybrid powertrain, a unique identity, looks that are appealing and a genuinely nice cabin. Yes, more performance would have been nice and it doesn’t have a sporty bone in its body, but this isn’t a car you buy to howl around corners in. So while on the one hand you could look at the seven-seater version as a left field alternative to something like a Toyota Fortuner, are Indian car buyers ready to pay upwards of Rs 50 Lakh for a Hyundai? On the basis of how well the Hyundai Tucson and Ioniq 5 are doing, the answer could be yes.
