Rugged yet comfortable for smooth hunting trip

The Nissan Navara merges the rugged strength of a bakkie with the comfort of a luxury SUV to create a new kind of beast that’s the best of both worlds.
And with a groundbreaking 5-link coil rear suspension system, the Navara redefines ride comfort and handling both on- and off-road making it the perfect vehicle for any hunting trip, transporting hunters to and from the game farm as well as ensuring a smooth ride on dust roads for that perfect shot.
The bold exterior design, sleek aerodynamic shape and distinctive LED lighting of the all-new Navara produce a striking visual impression, raising the bar for style in the bakkie segment. The signature V-motion grille flows into the hood through to the front fender, resulting in a smooth and dynamic character line. The V-motion motif continues in the tailgate section with a rear spoiler to further enhance the aerodynamics of the vehicle, all while maintaining Nissan’s distinctive bakkie design DNA which fits perfectly with the bush.
A powerful twin-turbo diesel engine, pushing out 140 kW and 450 Nm of torque, coupled with the smoothness of an optional 7-speed automatic transmission, redefines the drivetrain for a more efficient and responsive drive. The diesel engine’s small turbo gets you moving at low engine speeds while the larger one delivers linear, constant power for longer making it the ultimate vehicle for slow cruising in the bush.
The Nissan Navara shows how power, acceleration and fuel efficiency can not only coexist but thrive. Class-leading fuel efficiency is achieved by using low friction components, reduced mass, wide range gear transmissions and enhanced aerodynamics. With power comes great responsibility – the transmission ensures good balance between acceleration and fuel economy. Whether you prefer the convenience of an automatic or the precision of a traditional manual, the Nissan Navara lets you select gears your way.
Ideal for securing any load, the innovative Utili-track tie down system consists of two channels, running the length of the bakkie bed walls. Heavy duty moveable cleats can be locked anywhere in special tie down points so you can position your load safely, securely and with ease.
Whether it’s the depths of the bush or the concrete jungle, the Nissan Navara is always in its element and geared for any type of adventure. With an exceptional 33 degree approach angle, a 27.9 degree departure angle and all components tucked up under the frame for an increased ground clearance of 226 mm, the Navara easily conquers any terrain.
