The true identity of the new Elgrand AUTECH (E53) has finally been revealed

From May 28, 2026, it will be possible to accept advance orders and create price ranges and estimates for each grade of Nissan’s fully remodeled new Elgrand (Nissan New Elgrand, E53).

In this blog, we have introduced in detail the specific grade structure of this model, the main equipment for each grade, and points to note.

This time, what will happen to the custom grade AUTECH based on the Elgrand (E53)? I would like to take a look at the rendering.

The AUTECH series is one that many people are probably interested in, but in addition to the standard AUTECH, there are plans to add a light custom grade AUTECH LINE, but this time I would like to introduce only the AUTECH rendering.

Is this the exterior of the new Elgrand AUTECH?

At Nissan dealers, you can check the design images of AUTECH grade and AUTECH LINE grade as well as Elgrand by body color.

Unlike the standard grade Elgrand, it uses a silver decorative grille unique to the AUTECH grade instead of the body-colored dot pattern grille, and an “AUTECH” grade badge is attached to the passenger side.

The body color is Deep Ocean Blue, which is exclusive to AUTECH/AUTECH LINE, but if you choose this body color, there is a risk that delivery will be slightly delayed.

By the way, this front grille design has already been released as a teaser image in Nissan Autech’s official news release.

Also, the multi-spoke 18-inch aluminum wheels underfoot have been revealed, so you can see that the design has been faithfully reproduced.

“ELGRAND” lettering badge is treated as a dealer option.

The “ELGRAND” lettering badge is affixed to the tip of the front hood bonnet, but since this is sold as a dealer option, the “ELGRAND” badge is originally not affixed.

Also, the blue LED signature lamp that is unique to the AUTECH grade is lit, and this is exactly the same design as the one confirmed at the Nissan dealer.

In related articles, we have compiled impressions regarding the AUTECH series, so if you are considering purchasing this grade, we hope you will find it useful.
