All-new Nissan Patrol tackles the dunes in Saudi Arabia
Doha, Qatar (16 December 2024) – The seventh generation of Nissan’s iconic Patrol SUV has taken to the roads – and dunes – of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with representatives of the international and regional media, including media members from Qatar, where they have enjoyed their first taste of the vehicle since its unveil in September . The media test-drive takes place as Nissan is celebrating recently winning two awards at the 12th National Automotive Sector Award held in Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Nissan won the “Best Global Luxury Car Launch” award, while the “Nissan Patrol 2025” won the “Car of the Year” award. The latest iteration of the Patrol introduces several groundbreaking advancements – including a striking new design, new V6 and V6 twin-turbo engines, a 9-speed automatic transmission and customizable adaptive air suspension for enhanced all-terrain capability. Equipped with intuitive technologies including NissanConnect 2.0 powered by Google built-in, ProPILOT, and Klipsch Premium Audio System, it delivers a superior driving experience, complemented by exceptional comfort in a premium cabin. Thierry Sabbagh, Divisional Vice President, President Middle East, KSA & CIS – Nissan, INFINITI, said: “The Nissan Patrol is more than just a vehicle in the Middle East; it is a symbol of adventure, pride, and resilience.

Precision. The seventh-generation Nissan Patrol is Nissan’s most powerful Patrol to date – setting new standards in performance with an exhilarating blend of response, refinement and efficiency. The next-generation model represents a significant leap forward from previous iterations, with two new engine options. At the heart of this powerhouse is a new 3.5-liter V6 twin turbo engine, delivering an impressive 425HP and 700Nm of torque. This marks a momentous shift from the Patrol’s outgoing V8 engine – achieving a 7% increase in power and a 25% boost in torque, all while enhancing fuel efficiency by 24%. There is also a 3.8-liter naturally aspirated V6 engine option, producing 316HP and 386Nm of torque, replacing the previous 4.0-liter V6 unit. The new V6 twin-turbo motor is engineered with several enhancements, including improved throttle response for quicker acceleration, high combustion efficiency to maximize power output, and mirror bore coating to enhance thermal efficiency. The high heat-resistant turbocharger maintains peak performance under demanding conditions, while the scavenger oil pump ensures consistent lubrication on slopes and inclines, delivering reliable performance across all terrains. This shift underscores Nissan’s commitment to advancing technology for one of the best fuel efficiencies in the segment, without compromising the superior performance synonymous with the Patrol nameplate. Indeed, despite the significant upgrades to the powertrain and on-board technology, the Patrol’s overall weight remains virtually unchanged thanks to a forensic approach to its construction. The integration of a new 9-speed automatic transmission for both engines further elevates the driving experience, whether navigating city streets or conquering rugged terrains. The advanced transmission, paired with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters, ensures seamless acceleration and effortless gear changes for a consistently smooth and responsive journey. The new suspension also sees the adoption of e-damper technology that automatically adjusts the damper settings according to the driving conditions for a more controlled and comfortable on-board experience. Electronic power steering gives the optimal blend of precision, confidence and easy control – plus it enables the integration of Nissan’s Lane Keep Assist System. The All-New Patrol features a new adaptive air suspension system available as standard on the V6 twin-turbo. The system automatically adjusts the ride height according to the circumstances, to give effortless on-road cruising and peerless off-road capability. In addition to improved aerodynamic efficiency, it also lowers itself to facilitate easy passenger entry and exit, as well as convenient loading and unloading of gear. Drivers can continue to tailor their drive to perfection with a selection of six distinct drive modes to choose from – standard, sand, rock, mud, eco and sport. The All-New Patrol also introduces a 4WD transfer mode interlock system, a first for Nissan, which offers intuitive handling across various terrains, allowing drivers to seamlessly switch between modes while the system selects the optimal traction control and throttle sensitivity to tackle challenging landscapes with ease. Underlying all these features is a range of advanced chassis systems and electronic aids, including Vehicle Dynamic Control, Traction Control, Rear Differential Lock and Tire Pressure Monitoring System, to optimize a timely and safe response to any road condition. An Icon Built for Adventure Capturing the essence of Nissan’s global design philosophy, the All-New Patrol’s exterior styling enhances its distinctive silhouette to showcase an ‘unbreakable’ appearance reflective of its rugged capability, characterized by bold and sculpted lines, balanced proportions and impressive approach and departure angles. Meticulously crafted, every aspect of the all-new Patrol exudes a sense of strength and durability. Nissan’s signature V-motion grille takes center stage, now wider and more integrated into the body, and flanked by enhanced Double C-shaped headlights featuring Adaptive Driving Beam (ADB) technology
