Nissan has introduced a range of optional cosmetic upgrades labelled 'N-Sport' for the Navara and the Juke and X-Trail SUVs.
Similar to the limited-edition ‘N-Trek’ versions of its X-TRAIL, Pathfinder and Y61 Patrol SUVs that were released last year, the N-Sport models offer extra value says Nissan.
For the X-Trail, the N-Sport pack comprises external accessories finished in either 'Gun Metal' or 'Brilliant Silver'. These include a front bumper garnish, a front fog light bezel, side skirts and rear bumper skid plate. Additionally, the X-Trail N-Sport comes with a grille finished in smoky chrome and 17-inch alloy wheels.
Nissan is offering the Navara with the N-Sport upgrade for ST and RX levels of trim. In addition to the cosmetic improvements, the pack for the ST model also incorporates non-standard comfort and convenience equipment, in the form of a seven-inch touch screen with satellite navigation and 'leather-accented' upholstery for the seats, arm rests and centre console.
Externally, the Navara ST N-Sport comes with a black-gloss grille complemented by smoky chrome accents. Also finished in smoky chrome are the front fog light bezels. Other identifying features for the Navara ST N-Sport include a black sports bar, front spoiler extension, 'Gun Metallic' side steps/rear bumper and 18-inch alloy wheels.
The black sports bar is also a component of the N-Sport pack for the Navara RX. Other elements included in the pack for the Navara RX are a steel bull bar, wheel arch flares and ROH alloy wheels with 4WD springs. Nissan advises that the N-Sport packs will affect the payload rating for both Navara grades.
The N-Sport pack for the Juke is consists of a rear roof spoiler, 18-inch alloy wheels and Magnetic Red mirror caps and door handles.
