A comprehensive update for the Nissan Navara has made its global debut in Melbourne ahead of sales commencing early next year.
Set to bring Nissan’s all-important ute up to date alongside a slew of new or upgraded rivals – including the Toyota HiLux, Ford Ranger, Mazda BT-50 and Isuzu D-MAX – the latest overhaul for the D23-series Nissan Navara concentrates on styling, practicality and safety, with some important mechanical tweaks thrown in.
The latter includes work on the steering and suspension, and strengthening the rear axle to boost payload, while the headline news on safety is the addition of autonomous emergency braking (AEB) among a suite of advanced driver assist technology.
At the top of the range – at least until the Warrior returns, which is also now confirmed – is a PRO-4X dual-cab model that epitomises the tough, appealing new look for 2021 Nissan Navara.
