The Nissan Magnite has greatly enhanced its safety features, earning a perfect five-star grade for adult passenger protection in the most recent round of crash tests performed by Global NCAP. In reaction to earlier test findings, Nissan implemented a number of essential safety improvements prior to this upgrade. The revised Global NCAP testing standards initially gave the Magnite a 2-star rating for occupant protection for both adults and children. Among these procedures are evaluations of frontal and lateral impact, electronic stability control (ESC), pedestrian safety, and seatbelt reminders.

After this, Nissan responded quickly by improving the car's safety features. The most noteworthy enhancements are six airbags as standard, including front, side, and curtain units, as well as ESC and better occupant restraint systems. The implementation of three-point seatbelts for all seating positions, along with structural upgrades intended to improve side impact protection, are other safety enhancements. The Magnite's adult passenger protection score increased from 32.31 out of 34 points as a result of these modifications, making it one of the safest vehicles in its class.

With a score of 33.64 out of 49, the Magnite received three stars for its superior performance in terms of child safety. The child seat installations provided adequate safety, but there is still opportunity for improvement in the areas of ISOFIX availability and support for the entire spectrum of kid restraint devices. In accordance with the Safer Cars for Africa and India campaigns of Global NCAP, the automobile also demonstrated adherence to pedestrian safety standards and other significant safety performance criteria.

The fact that the Magnite is the first car evaluated in South Africa under the existing Global NCAP procedures to get a 5-star adult safety score makes this accomplishment all the more noteworthy. In addition, it demonstrates Nissan's dedication to improving automobile safety in developing nations.
