I just want to say props for saying 'people who want to dabble in offroading' So true, everyone on facebook says you need a Patrol, or Landcruiser otherwise you can't do anything off road at all. Realistically, most people don't need INSANE levels off offroad capabilities, and you can get into some pretty hectic places with a modern 4wd with IFS etc.
Who payed you to make this ad bro? Doesn't matter I bought one anyway, thanks for review! :) Black is the business. Very nice, yeh a bit pricey but if you can afford it you would be happy with overall package, especially ride quality. I tested all the other utes for a year before and found the leaf spring rear setup and stock body roll way too much to ask a family for long distance comfort. Sure you can aftermarket suspension and I was going to do that on a new stock ute but having it all done with all the other included details was great.
They are a great dual cab, yes the engine is a bit piss weak but it’s my daily and it does everything I need it to and more.. Good value and the only dual cab with coils in the rear, so it’s super comfy and doesn’t have leaf springs off a horse cart like the rest. (Besides the Raptor with IRS).
A bigger engine would cost too much to engineer. I feel like the value of the Warrior (even the current Pro-4X Warrior) is that it is compelling against the more expensive Wildtrak, Rugged-X and Raptor. In saying that, $2k for a custom Dyno tune and the power should be a sweet spot
Very nice piece, Thank You for being honest. I enjoyed watching this and I am not into expensive over priced vehicles. I just like to know what is out there.
you had like NO weight on the triler my review was horrible for the new nav! and you had it pinned! jesus mate LOL and i agree give it the v6 i mean cmon! but for those people... yes itll have a dpf!
Mate try out the Ranger Wildtrak 3.2ltr and put an iDrive on it they are wicked comfy, great offroad and good for kids, camping towing etc and i picked mine up for 58k before upgrading to an LC200 Sahara
This should be here now. The TITAN Warrior Concept debuted here at our Detroit Auto Show in 2016. Not understanding why this is in Australia 1st. We are supposedly getting a brand new Frontier/Navarra next year. Check out Nissan Nation Productions to see what leaked from them.
as a mechanic who works on np300's every fucking day at a dealer nothing can change my mind as to how shit they are with this paid promotion but hey you made the boys laugh at smoko and thats what counts at the end of the day
No money has ever changed hands between us and Nissan. In fact they generally worn give us press cars and have never been given us a R35 to drive or review and we don’t get invited to new car launches. So no. Very much not paid.
its still a 2.3 twin turbo turd... nissan did it right with only a few of the older versions of diesel.. the as always td42 simple and easy and the STX 550 3.0ltr turbo Diesel v6 is what they should have kept on the range we would all rush out to buy one
@@MotiveVideo certainly did - id take the vx9 out of my D40 stx550 and put it straight into the np300, the np300 is a better chassis just let down by what we all want as consumers
Ah the price but, that’s the only downside to these tricked up ponies. Get an STX and spend the savings on your own aftermarket mods to make it even more capable. $65k for a ute just screams insanity to me..
@@MotiveVideo V6 amarok is way better in every way for someone who wants something that drives like a car and they make 190rwkw with a remap. That's also coming from someone who owns a 240kw 900nm at the wheels diesel Hilux, built motor, big turbo, injectors etc. with all-new suspension and swaybars as a daily so no owner bias. Nav isn't bad but it just has nothing on the V6 amarok. The Mazda, Ford and Mitsubishi are all junk, Nav and Hilux are fine, Amarok number 1. Also my Hilux did 70,000km while making 240rwkw on an unopened engine. I only just got a full engine rebuild because I haven't needed it while working from home and the engine builder said the bottom end was in good condition just had some carbon buildup in the intake from the previous owner before I disabled EGR. I have a friend who has cracked 2 heads on a 3.2 ford. Mazda and Mitsubishi blow turbos and crack heads like nothing else as well.
Wait until you have to work on it , its a front wheel drive Renault van engine in a ute , yd25 was by no means a good engine these will be worse. Should have just put a 1kd in it
Should have got an v6 amarok they shit all over all the other duel cabs on the market they drive like a golf but just take off when you want even with a car on the back as evidenced by a mate and I dragging people on Windsor Rd with a r31 on the back n a tray full of tools n 4 people in the car compared especially with the current hilux that struggled to tow a bare car trailer let alone with a car
These Renault powered Navaras are absolute junk and the engines are lemons unlikely to reach 250,000km without needing replacement like all modern Nissan (except R35 coils) Nissan is far from the company they used to be in the 80’s and 90’s.
I’m mostly shocked at the price. Yeah it’s definitely cheaper than some, but I bought myself a Colorado LTZ for 50k 6 months ago (can get them even cheaper now), I’ve added pretty much everything that Warrior has and it still ended up WAY less than 65k. Only thing I’m missing compared to this is the leather, but I have more power and more torque.

True story.
Yeah look at Graham over on the 4wd action channel with his mild lifted dmax.
I love the way you review cars. You’re bloody honest, it’s refreshing.
I owned a ST-X Navara brand new from Nissan for a couple years. I'd 100% go out and buy another one given the opportunity.
I'm sure there's room for a "towing a boat" joke in there somewhere.
You forgot the most important gerlytruk test - how well can it mount the kerb in a Bunnings carpark?
lol. It’s high enough to do that just fine
What a dream!!!!!!! Nissan powa !! Pulling nissan powa !!!!
Awesome review Andrew, 100% agree with the engine needs the v6 back and I’d be signing up for one too.
100% I will also buy one
Great video mate. I've got a Navara as a daily slash tow vehicle and it's great. #1 mod is a matt black sticker over the chrome shifter surround.
In Trinidad we got this with the YD25DDTI engine ... thing works real good ❤
Jealous...
That’s sick
The yd25 is a pos engine compared to the ys23 in the np300

raptor has a solid rear axle with a watts linkage no IRS there

We had 1100kg+ on it so total trailer weight was 1.6-1.8 tonnes. That’s not no weight. That’s enough to test it out.
Great review! When towing the car, did you put it in 4H or just left it on 2H?
No need to go into 4H whole towing on the road
Mate try out the Ranger Wildtrak 3.2ltr and put an iDrive on it they are wicked comfy, great offroad and good for kids, camping towing etc and i picked mine up for 58k before upgrading to an LC200 Sahara
whats a normal navara mate?
If Nissan would send this type of truck to the truck capital of the world USA they sell like the big 3 and yota
The previous generation Navara sold in the US as the Frontier and it never sold well.

Dual cab ute, best daily. I have a Hilux 3L diesel that makes 240kw and 900nm of torque at the wheels.
finnsk3 tru as nan ?
1kd is a lot more reliable than this Renault shitter
What kind of Hyundai was your regular tow vehicle? Great job on the review btw!
Hyundai iLoad, it's a van.
Thanks, i'm in Europe and they're called something else here and when he said iLoad i thought i misheard it
Me looking to see if I can get one in Canada, so far no luck.
Well I'm sold
You should work for Nissan’s PR department. So they can build cars people want to buy.
Nissan Titan is coming. so doubt they will use a bigger engine.

Glad nissan won't give the US 3 bearing diffs. More work for techs!
65k??!?! Just get a hilux it'll hold is value better when you go to sell it
We’d rather buy a car we like and suits our needs.

@@nate-tz8sx exactly lol
Keep your V6 550nm TD. Just give me the 5.6 out of the Titan....
That'll be so FUCKEN cool to have the V8 option
you need a nissan s-cargo, sr20 convert it that would be hectic!
The ST navara has height adjustable seats was probably set to the highest setting
No, was only lowest setting. Can’t believe you think we’d be that dumb

We didn’t buy it. It’s a press car.
A good looking Ute, and even better with a pretty young lady behind the wheel ;)
02:00 i guess no sleep for me tonight...
I don’t think this is the place to review a pickup.
Many of our viewers tow their race car or have their car as weekend car and need a tow vehicle and or daily. That’s why we reviewed it
it's their channel, they can do what they want
I’ve got a Navara Rx it is fucking trash
SMH...

Spot on !
Sellouts
Why? Because we reviewed a car we got loaned?
A Renault truck?
GAY!
Mr M yeah and even worse is the mercedes x-class runs this navars chassis and engine
no u
YUGO BOSS X Class is goneburger
Fancy cinematography, Turd of a car ...
You just lost my attention
If I want to watch 4x4 s
I’ll sit outside a school in the morning.
Bye Felicia...

Cue all the “well the Hilux/Ranger/Amarok/Whatever is better than the Colorado because...” comments haha
The Colorado is terribly made but I would rather one then this Navara with its Renault engine
