Like Africa, the NISSAN PATROL has a proud heritage; a legacy of power, determination and strength. The PATROL story began more than 60 years ago in 1951 with the 4W60. It had an authentic 4X4 chassis, selectable 4WD and a powerful 6-cylinder engine. The 4W60 quickly proved to be the most reliable, rugged and versatile 4X4 available and it was not long before it became the preferred mode of off-road transportation in many parts of Asia. This legacy of reliability and superior 4x4 capability remain true today. With proven durability, refinement and strength, let the PATROL take you where others don’t dare to go.
Tough, rugged and powerful with high performance petrol and turbo diesel models. Matched to a five speed manual transmission or 4-speed automatic transmission, the NISSAN PATROL is available with a modern 3.0ℓ common rail turbocharged diesel engine with intercooler. Designed for the harsh African roads and varying fuel quality, this engine compliments the PATROL’S sturdy and dependable nature with incredible fuel economy and performance, with 110 kW of power and up to 371 Nm of torque available from just 1 800 rpm. The 4.8ℓ gasoline engine has been refined and perfected to take top honours in the most grueling international off-road motorsport events. For those requiring even more power and torque, this 4.8ℓ 24-valve gasoline engine delivers it.
A 3.0ℓ turbo diesel with intercooler delivers all the best of Nissan’s reliable engine technology, including power and torque to help you handle any challenge, superior acceleration, and top-grade fuel efficiency.

ASCD (Auto Speed Control Device) Auto Speed Control Device helps make driving less tiring on long trips.
The Nissan Induction Control System (NICS) enhances intake efficiency at all engine speeds to improve torque levels.
Valve Timing Control (VTC) increases engine power and torque.
When the going gets tough, get going in a NISSAN PATROL. Climb a 39° gradient. Wade through 700mm of water. The PATROL’s all steel body on a strong ladder frame chassis, highly articulated suspension and flexible four-wheel drive system make it relentless. On-road and off.
Ultimate off-road performance is assured by the higher angle of stability, improved grade-ability, and larger approach, departure, and ramp clearance angles.
The heavy-duty coil spring suspension, incorporating telescopic shock absorbers and a torsion bar, provides confident handling.
Top-of-the-class wheel stroke makes light work of rough roads and unexpected obstacles.
The 4-speed automatic transmission with manual mode provides sporty performance in all driving situations. Also available in 5-speed manual transmission.
Shift from 2WD to 4WD with one touch of the lever on GL and SGL grades; shifting from 2H to 4H is also possible even in motion (up to 40 km/h).
Wide, 275 / 65R17 radial tyres and attractive alloy wheels give the PATROL a formidable appearance
When facing different wheel grip situations, an inside cabin switch allows you to conveniently engage the rear differential lock, maintaining traction by providing torque evenly to both wheels.
The newly designed pintle hook is useful for towing disabled vehicles.
Additional to the 95 Litre fuel tank, the 40 Litre sub-fuel tank increases driving range. It is easily activated by a switch located on the instrument panel. The meter displays fuel levels and a self-diagnostic system assures the safe transfer of fuel.
An electric-powered winch, integrated with the front bumper, is very useful in emergencies
Climb inside the NISSAN PATROL to experience meticulous quality. A two-tone finish complements the curvy dashboard, with a 4 dial instrument panel that’s easy to read. Revel in the indulgence of leather trim, brushed aluminum dial surrounds and a classic woodgrain effect. All passenger-facing surfaces incorporate soft-feel material, which enhances the luxury of the cabin. Add electrically powered front seats, automatic front and rear climate control, 6 CD in-dash audio, auto speed control as well as cruise control, and you get an interior that’ll take you through the harshest terrain in style.
A 2-DIN audio system with AM / FM radio, CD player, MP3 player with AUX input and 40W speakers makes any drive more pleasant.
This remote-controlled system improves access. The hazard lights flash once when “Lock” is pressed; when “Unlock” is pressed, the hazard lights flash twice and the cabin light turns on.
Handy cup holders, thoughtfully positioned throughout the interior, increase utility.
The seatback tray, which can be folded away neatly when not in use, is especially handy.
A welcome feature that helps to prevent luggage from shifting around in the rear cargo area.
Double visors for both the driver and front passenger (with vanity mirror and light) provide shade from the front and side at the same time.
A digital multi-meter, positioned between the sun visors, displays the outside temperature and compass direction.
Nissan’s exclusive Zone Body design significantly increases safety by incorporating crushable zones that reduce shock by absorbing impact energy and a reinforced cabin structure that safeguards vehicle passengers. Door beams provide further protection by reducing the force of side impacts.
By electronically regulating brake fluid pressure on each wheel, ABS prevents wheel lockup during sudden braking to enhance vehicle control in potentially hazardous situations.
Apart from the framework of your vehicle, each Nissan PATROL is fitted with large diameter ventilated brake discs. This allows heat to be dissipated rapidly to improve braking action, diminish brake fade and enhance the life of your brakes.
The side airbag SRS provides additional protection against lateral impacts. Used in conjunction with the 3-point seatbelts, it helps reduce the risk of injury in certain types of lateral impact.
The dual front airbag SRS inflate instantaneously to cushion both driver and front passenger in the event of a collision. Used in conjunction with the 3-point seatbelts, they help reduce the risk of injury in certain types of frontal impact.
Highly effective halogen headlights provide ample illumination in all low-light situations.
