If you have been considering the new Nissan Patrol 2016 range, you may have overlooked the benefits offered by this iconic model. The Patrol is a military inspired vehicle which first hit our shores in 1960. However, it didn’t become a solid part of the landscape here until the 1980s when the third generation Patrol arrived. Although the Nissan Patrol has been a strong contender for more than fifty years, the Ti been refreshed to provide a more powerful, comfortable and bigger model.

The Performance:
The Patrol Ti is equipped with a massive V8 5.6 litre engine, which provides 298 kW power and 560 Nm torque. This is approximately fifty percent more torque compared to the GU diesel. Although the model has a hefty 2800 kilogram bulk, it still has an impressive power to weight ratio of 110W/kg.
However, this sheer power will come at a cost. The fuel consumption is listed as 14 litres per 100 kilometres on a combined cycle, which makes this model a little on the thirsty side. The model has a 140 litre fuel tank, which means that you will have approximately 1,000 kilometre range on a full tank.

Price:
...
... When the Ti was originally launched in 2013, the price was $92,850 plus on the road and optional costs. The top spec models cost in excess of $113k. However, this year Nissan have revised their pricing structure. This means that the Ti is now priced at $69,990, which represents a $23,000 saving and makes this Nissan Patrol even more competitive.
For example, the GXL Toyota Landcruiser turbo diesel is priced at $87,000. While the Toyota may be a little more frugal fuel wise, you would potentially gain seventeen years of driving from the price gap if you buy the Nissan.

Inside the Cabin:
The Ti has a whole host of equipment as standard. This includes tri zone climate control, surround view park camera, leather trimmed seats, sat nav, keyless entry and a number of off road tools such as tyre pressure monitor, wheel angle display, and compass.

There is also acres of space. With all the seats in place, there is a mammoth 550 litres of cargo space. If you fold the 60:40 split third row, this increases to 1500 litres, which is more than enough for your luggage even with a full complement of passengers.
The Nissan Patrol officially has an eight seat layout, with plenty of space even in the rear row. There is also a gap between the first and second row which is so vast; it should be called an aisle. There is also a diverse range of storage solutions to ensure that all the passengers enjoy the journey including cupholders, storage cubbies, and bins.
