Nissan recently revised its Navara model range with the new PRO 4X as the top model until the Warrior is released.
Navara has always been a good 4WD Ute and with the move towards premium models in the segment the pro 4x looks to capitalise on this with enhanced styling.
PRO 4X exclusive features include
- Yokohama Geolander all-terrain tyres
- Black Sports Bar
- Black Fender flares
- Black Roof rails – black
- PRO-4X black alloy wheels
- Black-painted door mirrors, side steps, grille and door handles and
- Leather accented PR0 4X seats

Bizarrely the lower spec ST-X has the option of electric heated seats which isn’t available on the top model.
Powered by a 2.3L twin-turbo diesel engine that produces 140kW and 450Nm from as low as 1500rpm driving all four wheels through a part time 4WD system and an optional seven speed AT. It will tow 3500kg and has a payload of a bit over a tonne.
Navara PRO 4X is priced from $60,630 plus the usual costs it’s a little pricey without some of the premium features like heated seats. Navara comes with a 5 year unlimited km warranty.

What is good?
- Adventurous styling
- Infotainment connectivity user interface easy to use
- Payload, 4WD and towing capability
What is not so good?
- No electric seats option and height adjustable steering wheel only
- Rear sports bar is inconvenient for storage
- Hefty price hike over optioned ST-X for not much other than style
