In a triumphant entrance onto the Australian market, the Nissan Patrol Warrior emerges as the supreme rendition of the Off-Road 4x4. This resurrection is the result of a collaborative effort between local engineering maestros Premcar and Nissan Australia, marking a thrilling new chapter. Adding to the lineup are the formidable Navara Pro-4X Warrior and Navara SL Warrior.

In the creation of the Patrol Warrior, Premcar rested its ambitions on four pillars: capability, a commanding road presence, an impeccable soundtrack, and an unrivaled level of refinement.

Setting it apart from the standard 4x4 variant, the Warrior boasts a substantial 1.1-inch suspension lift and proudly wears 18-inch wheels shod with Yokohama G015 295/70 All-Terrain tires, elevating the vehicle by a notable 0.8 inches. Additionally, it flaunts a 1.5-inch wider track compared to its regular Patrol Ti sibling, enhancing both stability and presence.

Beneath the surface, a host of under-skin enhancements awaits, including a re-engineered Hydraulic Body Motion Control system, newly configured progressive rate rear bump-stops, meticulously re-developed front springs, and an impressive 106 lbs increase in carrying capacity.

Visually, key modifications catch the eye, featuring a striking red Warrior branded bash plate, black mirror caps, the aforementioned distinctive wheels, and bold black fender flares. Not to be overlooked is Premcar's craftsmanship in designing a sturdy 0.09-inch thick steel bash plate, proudly finished in a vibrant shade of red.

But the crowning glory that's sure to set hearts racing is the installation of a bi-modal exhaust system, promising to unleash the full potential of the Patrol's 5.6-liter naturally-aspirated V8 powerhouse. This formidable engine churns out a heart-pounding 400 HP at 5,800 rpm and an impressive 413 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm.

Rest assured, all Patrol Warriors are built upon the foundation of the Patrol Ti, delivering impressive off-road capabilities. It boasts a suite of essential features including front and rear parking sensors, a tire pressure monitoring system, a rear helical limited-slip differential, and advanced safety technologies such as Intelligent Emergency Braking and Intelligent Forward Collision Warning. The interior is equally captivating, with an 8-inch infotainment display, a six-speaker audio system, and the convenience of eight seats for all your adventures.

With domestic prices for the Nissan Patrol Warrior starting at $64,798 USD, it represents a significant step up from the $54,383 USD commanded by the standard Patrol Ti. It's a testament to the commitment to excellence and innovation that defines this remarkable off-road icon.
