Nissan Navara Reviews

The new 2026 Nissan Navara is based almost entirely on the Mitsubishi Triton, but with altered suspension from Australian firm Premcar.The top-of-the-range Nissan Navara (until the Warrior arrives) is the $68,418 Pro-4X with more design changes, all-terrain tyres, a black sports bar and roof rails, contrast stitching and specific seats with Pro-4X styling.It also includes basics like an 8.0-inch multimedia touchscreen across the range with digital radio as well as (wired) Android Auto and (wireless) Apple CarPlay, plus things like heated front seats and a power adjustable driver's seat, dual-zone climate and a wireless phone charger are all included, plus a centre limited-slip differential and drive modes more compatible with off-roading.There’s a 150kW/470Nm four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine which is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, sending power to the rear wheels or all four depending on 4WD settings.From the Navara’s 75L diesel tank, a claimed 7.7L/100km is used on the combined (urban/extra-urban) cycle. Hypothetically, if you manage to get close to Nissan’s claimed consumption, you should be able to get more than 900km out of a single tank. The Navara has a tub capable of easily fitting a Euro pallet, according to Nissan’s specs, but with its distance of 1135mm between wheel arches, it won’t fit an Aussie pallet. The tub is almost square, at 1555mm long and 1545mm wide, and 525mm tall. The new Navara inherits the Triton’s maximum five-star ANCAP rating, which was tested in 2024, thanks to eight airbags and a list of safety kit including a surround-view camera, forward collision warning and AEB, front and rear cross-traffic alert, driver monitoring and traffic sign recognition, front and rear parking sensors and trailer sway control.Nissan’s 10-year/300,000km warranty is fantastic but applies only if you service with Nissan. It’s five years with no kilometre limit otherwise. There’s five years' of flat-price servicing at $499 per visit, every 12 months or 15,000km, whichever comes first. Roadside assist is also free for a decade if you service with Nissan, or a year otherwise.

The Nissan Navara ST-X starts from $63,177, before on-road costs, and adds a fair bit over the basics like an 8.0-inch multimedia touchscreen across the range with digital radio as well as (wired) Android Auto and (wireless) Apple CarPlay.Better suspension, 18-inch alloys, leather-accented and heated front seats and a power adjustable driver's seat, dual-zone climate and a wireless phone charger are all included, plus a centre limited-slip differential, drive modes more compatible with off-roading.A 150kW/470Nm four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine under the bonnet is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, sending power to the rear wheels or all four depending on 4WD settings.The 7.7L/100km consumption claim from Nissan, paired with the Navara’s 75L diesel tank, means you should be able to drive more than 900km theoretically. The distance of 1135mm between wheel arches in the tub means it won’t fit an Australian pallet, but a Euro one will fit fine. The overall tub is 1555mm long, 1545mm wide, and 525mm tall.The new Navara inherits the Triton’s maximum five-star ANCAP rating, which was tested in 2024, thanks to eight airbags and a list of safety kit including a surround-view camera, forward collision warning and AEB, front and rear cross-traffic alert, driver monitoring and traffic sign recognition, front and rear parking sensors and trailer sway control.Nissan’s 10-year/300,000km warranty is fantastic but applies only if you service with Nissan.

The ST is the second model in the new Nissan Navara range and starts from $56,765, before on-road costs, and includes basics like an 8.0-inch multimedia touchscreen across the range with digital radio as well as (wired) Android Auto and (wireless) Apple CarPlay.It also gains alloy wheels, auto-folding mirrors, a leather-accented steering wheel and floor carpet, USB ports in the second row for charging, so it’s probably the minimum grade you’d want if you’re ever going to have kids in the back.Its 150kW/470Nm four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, sending power to the rear wheels or all four depending on 4WD settings.From the Navara’s 75L diesel tank, the 7.7L/100km consumption figure theoretically means you should be able to drive more than 900km. But that’s in perfect lab-like conditions.The overall tub is 1555mm long, 1545mm wide, and 525mm tall, but the distance of 1135mm between wheel arches in the tub means it won’t fit an Australian pallet, but a Euro one will fit fine. The Triton’s maximum five-star ANCAP rating applies to the Navara, which has the same eight airbags, surround-view camera, forward collision warning and AEB, front- and rear-cross traffic alert, driver monitoring and traffic sign recognition, front and rear parking sensors and trailer sway control.Nissan’s 10-year/300,000km warranty only applies if you service with Nissan, otherwise it’s five years and unlimited kilometres. Five years' of flat-price servicing at $499 per visit is also included, with intervals at every 12 months or 15,000km, whichever comes first.Roadside assist is also free for a decade if you service with Nissan, or a year otherwise.

Nissan’s new Navara lands about a year after the Triton it’s based on, but some extra local engineering work on the ute sees the brand calling the D27 generation of this model more suited to Australia. We head to its local launch in Canberra to see if that really is the case.

Nissan tried but failed with its previous (and maybe last-ever) in-house-developed diesel one-tonne ute, the D23 Navara. For 2026, the "all-new" D27 Navara is a mildly-restyled Mitsubishi (MV) Triton, and might only be Australia/New Zealand-only, for now. But there is one massive difference, and that is the retuned suspension, courtesy of Melbourne's Premcar, that is behind the Warrior series.

While the highly-specified 4WD dual cab ute models get all the focus its the no-fuss entry-level models that get the work done. And Nissan's Navara SL is a classic example. Not the highest profile option in the market and getting a bit long in the tooth but it still has a lot to offer tradies needing a tough truck.

Nissan Australia and Aussie vehicle-engineering company, Premcar, have combined forces to produce a gung-ho Navara ute via their on-going Warrior collaboration.It looks the goods and certainly packs a punch, conversion wise, on paper at least.But how well will this upgraded and re-engineered 4WD handle wild weather, flooded rivers and a pair of argumentative teenaged passengers?

Nissan Australia scored a hit with its locally enhanced Navara Warrior PRO-4X. Now it's offering a more affordable version that keeps all the hardcore stuff and trims away some of the fancy bits around the edges - the Navara SL Warrior.

Cheap and nasty? No! At least that's what Nissan is hoping you think when you consider its entry-level SL Warrior, a budget-friendly alternative to its top-shelf, $70,000-and-up, off-road performance ute, the Pro-4X Warrior.The SL Warrior has a greater payload than the Pro-4X Warrior, but has the same towing capacity, off-road suspension and measurements.But is it missing too much safety tech?
