The latest Nissan Warrior is marching into showrooms with a six-figure price tag.

The Nissan Patrol Warrior is priced from $101,160 before on-road costs, making it $16,260 more expensive than the Patrol Ti on which it’s based.

It’s also $3560 more expensive than the more luxurious Patrol Ti-L.

Of course, you’re getting plenty of off-roading equipment for your money with the Warrior. Rather than buying a Ti and heading for their nearest ARB store, Nissan is promising keen off-roaders (or buyers who want the roughest, toughest looking Patrol) the dream of a fully warrantied alternative.

The Warrior has been reworked by Australian engineering firm Premcar, with a sophisticated new suspension setup, bumpers and bash plates, and a fresh exhaust to free up more noise from the naturally aspirated V8 engine.

Pricing

  • 2024 Nissan Patrol Ti: $84,900
  • 2024 Nissan Patrol Ti-L: $97,600
  • 2024 Nissan Patrol Warrior by Premcar: $101,160

All prices exclude on-road costs.

Drivetrains

The 2024 Nissan Patrol range uses a naturally aspirated 5.6-litre V8 engine producing 298kW of power and 560Nm of torque, mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission.

The Warrior breathes through a unique bi-modal exhaust.

All models offer full-time four-wheel drive with low-range gearing.

Efficiency

The 2024 Nissan Patrol uses a claimed 14.4L/100km on the combined cycle and requires a minimum of 95 RON premium unleaded fuel. It has a 140L fuel tank.

The 2024 Nissan Patrol measures 5175mm long and 1995mm wide, with a 3075mm wheelbase.

The Ti is 1940mm tall, while the Ti-L is 1955mm tall. The Warrior has a 50mm ride height lift (29mm suspension + 21mm wheel and tyre), but its height hasn’t been confirmed.

Its maximum braked towing capacity is 3500kg and a maximum unbraked towing capacity of 750kg, with a maximum tow ball download of 350kg.

Servicing and Warranty

The 2024 Nissan Patrol range is covered by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty.

In 2022, Nissan extended the servicing intervals for the Patrol from six months or 10,000 kilometres first to 12 months or 10,000 kilometres. 

Nissan offers a capped-price servicing program, and the first six services are capped at $452, $581, $559, $916, $509, and $741, respectively. For the first six years or 60,000 kilometres of capped-price servicing will set you back $3758.
