Nissan Australia has revealed details of the range and prices of its new D27 Navara ute. To be available exclusively in 4×4 double-cab body style with a ute tub on the back, the line-up from launch will comprise just four models.
SL, ST, STX, and Pro-4X will be the variants available from March 1. Nissan has teased us with images of a Pro-4X Warrior concept but that model hasn’t been confirmed for production yet. With the success of the previous Navara Warrior, we’ll bet a buck that the Premcar-fettled D27 won’t be too far off.
What’s good news is that Nissan has expanded its relationship with Premcar, turning to the Melbourne engineering firm to tweak the suspension on all new Navara models. This includes specific calibration of the shock absorbers to suit Australian road conditions. Those shocks are now a twin-tube design for improved durability on rocky tracks.
It’s no secret the latest Navara shares a lot with Nissan’s alliance partner Mitsubishi and its Triton ute, but the Nissan team is keen to project its points of difference in both specification and price. While the ladder-frame chassis, suspension configuration and powertrain will be shared across the alliance partners, the specifications, standard inclusions and suspension differ between the two.

What does each model come with?
Navara SL (from $53,348)
Standard equipment includes an electronic locking rear differential (RDL); LED headlights and LED tail-lights; a seven-inch Instrument Cluster Display; a nine-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wired Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay connectivity; sat-nav; cloth seats and vinyl floor covering; tailgate assist for easier access to the tub; 17-inch steel wheels with all-terrain tyres; and the Easy Select dual-range transfer case that misses out on the full-time 4×4 mode of the Super Select 4×4 transfer case.
Navara ST (from $56,765)
The ST has all of the features of the SL but adds 17-inch alloys; carpet floor covering; leather-accented steering wheel; USB plug in the rear of the console; privacy glass; auto-dimming rear-view mirror; heated exterior mirrors; and a rear sports bar.

Navara ST-X (from $63,177)
Step up to the ST-X model and you finally get the Super Select 4×4 system with full-time 4×4 as well as 2WD and dual-range 4×4. Drive modes now include Normal, Eco, Gravel, Snow, Mud, Sand and Rock, and hill descent control joins the party. Eighteen-inch alloys replace the 17s on lower grades; the exterior mirrors have power-fold functionality; and silver colours on the exterior distinguish it from the lower grades. A cargo liner protects the cargo tub, and tailgate assist is standard.
Inside, the ST-X gets leather-accented seats with power adjustment for the driver; heated front seats; dual-zone climate control; push-button engine start; and a wireless phone charger. The multimedia screen grows to nine inches, and both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay go wireless.
Navara PRO-4X (from $68,418)
The Pro-4X is the hero of the range for the time being, and it really stands out with a distinctive grille surround with lava orange highlights; 17-inch matte black alloys wearing 265/65R17 all-terrains; wheel-arch flares with lava orange accents; black roof rails; and a NAVARA tailgate badge. Flash, hey?
Inside, Pro-4X owners will enjoy leather-accented seats with orange stitching and suede bolsters, a leather-accented steering wheel with orange stitching, and PRO-4X logos embossed on the front seatbacks. Black-painted inner door handles and lava orange accents throughout the front console and door trim add to the vibe. The Pro-4X also comes standard with a towbar fitted that is wired in and ready to go; otherwise it’s an extra on the lower grades.

Engine and powertrain
All D27 Navaras are powered by the Alliance’s 2.4-litre bi-turbo-diesel engine that makes 150kW and 470Nm, with a 7.1L/100km combined fuel consumption sticker.
The engine is backed by a shared six-speed automatic transmission, with no manual cog-swapper offered in the Nissan. The transfer case is Mitsubishi’s Super Select system that provides two- and four-wheel drive, high- and low-range, and full-time 4×4 for all-road driving. All Navaras come with a rear differential lock, which Nissan is quick to point out isn’t the case with its competition.
Something the Navara does lose in this jump to the shared D27 platform is the availability of a coil-spring option in the ute. This was a point of difference enjoyed by many users in the D23 Navara. All Navaras now come with leaf springs supporting the rear end, and there are different leaf packs for each of the four model grades and their differing weights. The front suspension still uses wishbones and coil IFS configuration, common to mid-size 4×4 utes.
All Navara D27s have a 3500kg towing capacity. The GVM is rated at 3190kg and the GCM at 6250kg, giving payloads between 1064kg for the SL model and 964kg for the Pro-4X.

Safety
All models in the D27 Navara range share the same level of safety kit: eight airbags; Emergency Braking (AEB); Lane Departure Warning with Emergency Lane Assist; trailer sway control; front and rear parking sensors; reversing camera; Blind Spot Warning; Intelligent Around View Monitor with Moving Object Detection; driver monitor; TPMS; and front and rear cross-traffic alert. The features give the D27 a five-star safety rating, but that was using the 2024 test.
Ownership
The new Navara will be offered in a choice of eight exterior colours.
Nissan backs the range with its service-activated warranty program, extending coverage to up to 10 years or 300,000km when servicing is completed within the Nissan dealer network. Without activation, the standard warranty is five years with unlimited kilometres.
Roadside assistance follows the same structure, with up to 10 years or 300,000km of coverage available under the service-activated program, otherwise reverting to one year with unlimited kilometres. The Navara also comes with a five-year flat-price servicing schedule, with services capped at $499.
The D27 Navara range will be available in Nissan dealerships from March 1.
