The black 17-inch alloy wheels and 275/70 Cooper Discoverer All Terrain Tyre AT3 tyres contribute to the increase in ground clearance to 260mm (+40mm), while the off-road-focused suspension also helps to increase the approach angle to 36 degrees (+4 degrees).

The visual upgrades are rounded out by specific fender flares, branded decals and embroidered front seat headrests, while a tow bar and a full-size spare are also on hand.

Other standard equipment includes an 8.0-inch touchscreen multimedia system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, and a 7.0-inch multifunction display.

Advanced driver-assist systems extend to autonomous emergency braking, lane-keep assist, driver attention alert, active blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert and surround-view cameras.

Like the rest of the Navara range, the Pro-4X Warrior is covered by Nissan Australia’s five-year/unlimited-kilometre warranty. Its braked capacity is also unchanged, at 3500kg, although its payload is decreased by 52kg, to 961kg (manual) or 952kg (automatic).
