The perennially popular Nissan Patrol has been a hugely successful off-road vehicle in Australia for multiple generations.
The current-gen Y62 Patrol consists of three models in the Australian line-up, the Ti, the Ti-L and the Premcar-enhanced Patrol PRO-4X Warrior. All variants are fitted with a stonking 5.6-litre petrol V8 engine producing 298kW and 560Nm, combined with a seven-speed auto and part-time 4×4 system. An extremely capable off-road workhorse with massive aftermarket potential.
Pros
- Powerful 5.6L V8 delivers strong performance
- Spacious, comfortable cabin for long-distance touring
- Serious off-road capability, especially in Warrior trim
Cons
- Thirsty on fuel compared to turbo-diesel rivals
- Large size can be a hassle in urban areas
- Aging interior tech feels behind newer competitors
