The exterior design of the new Navara reflects the brand’s pickup history. The V-motion front grille, which creates a strong character, is prominent. The three-piece air intakes with orange trim are a nod to the first-generation Navara.
The new C-shaped headlight design gives the vehicle a more aggressive and modern appearance. The interior highlights technological advancements. Standard equipment includes a 7-inch digital instrument cluster and a 9-inch infotainment system that supports wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity.
Under the hood is a 2.4-liter turbodiesel engine. This engine produces 204 horsepower and 470 Nm of torque, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. Fuel consumption is 7.7 liters per 100 kilometers.
The Navara’s payload ranges from 950 to 1047 kg, depending on the version selected. Additionally, the new electric power steering (EPS) system improves maneuverability and provides sharper handling.
The Navara’s all-wheel drive system automatically switches between two- and four-wheel drive depending on driving conditions. An electronic differential lock is standard on all versions.
The suspension has been specially retuned to take into account the challenging road conditions of Oceania. For safety, a comprehensive suite of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) is available. This package includes features such as intelligent cruise control, lane departure warning, emergency lane correction assist, and traffic sign recognition.
