Nissan is a household name in the UAE, made popular by the legendary Patrol and 70 years of off-roading heritage. And it comes as no surprise that within their current range of 17 vehicles, 6 of them are SUVs, each catering to a different segment. One of which is the X-Terra. The nameplate that was retired in 2015, now returns sporting a fresh guise, with a different powertrain and a host of features to keep it abreast with modern-day rivals.
Design & aesthetics
This mid-size SUV is all-new ground up. It re-establishes its market position between the smaller X-Trail and the Pathfinder. Stylistically, the X-Terra’s tall stance and subtly chiseled bodywork draws great resemblance to its rivals like the Toyota Fortuner and is a complete departure from its rugged 2-box predecessor. It gives off definitive off-roader vibes too!
Come June 2021, South Africans will be able to purchase the new Nissan Navara. While not all-new, the updates brought about are comprehensive and the bakkie is, according to Wheels24 correspondent Calvin Fisher, a significant improvement over what came before .
There are three aspects about the new Navara that s bound to put it in good stead against its rivals: 1) It s now built in South Africa, 2) it is priced lower than the outgoing model, and 3) it implements a new 2.5-litre diesel engine opposed to the current 2.3-litre mill.
Stefan Haasbroek, Marketing Director at Nissan South Africa, says: With the introduction of the new Navara bakkie in South Africa, we are confident that the significant technical changes implemented across our extensive line-up, will deliver the ultimate customer experience, with enhanced ride comfort, load-carrying capacity, and a powertrain selected specifically for the South African market.
