2025 Nissan Patrol : claims to be better than the Toyota Land Cruiser

Nissan stated earlier this year that it will release the redesigned Armada, as the Patrol is known in left-hand drive countries, by the end of the Japanese fiscal year (March 31, 2025).
However, Nissan Americas chairwoman Jeremie Papin has confirmed to Automotive News that the Japanese automaker will release its next-generation flagship SUV this year.
A new-generation Murano is also on the way, albeit not for Australia, and Mr Papin believes Nissan will debut its model year 2025 cars "extremely close to what we consider the ideal introduction". That's around the end of the northern summer, which indicates the Armada will debut in North America in August - but a formal announcement will most certainly come before then.
While the new Armada may be available shortly, the right-hand drive Patrol companion will take longer to arrive.
Nissan's AMIEO division (Africa, Middle East, India, Europe, and Oceania) said earlier this year that it will debut four new cars over the next two years, including a new ute that is believed to be the next Navara and a mid-sized electric SUV.Nissan simply stated that these cars will be available "during The Arc period," alluding to the company's newly revealed mid-term business strategy, which establishes numerous targets that Nissan will fulfill in differing degrees by fiscal year 2026 or the end of that fiscal year.
Notably, Nissan does not say if these four cars would arrive at the start or end of Japan's fiscal year 2026, which runs from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026.
It would not be the first time the Patrol arrived significantly later in Australia than in other markets. While the latest Y62-series Patrol began manufacture in 2010, it did not arrive in Australia until 2013.
The new generation vehicle will replace the Y62's petrol V8 with a V6.
This 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 delivers 336kW and 698Nm of torque in the 2025 Infiniti QX80, which was shown in March. It is equipped with a nine-speed automatic transmission and either rear- or four-wheel drive.
These figures indicate a 38kW and 138Nm boost over the existing Patrol's naturally aspirated 5.6-litre V8, as well as a 109kW gain but a 2Nm decrease over the 3.3-litre V6 turbo-diesel powering the competitor Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series in Australia.
