The differences between the 2018 and 2019 Nissan Patrol are as follows: 1. Interior: The 2019 Patrol remains a three-row, seven-seat model, featuring an overall luxurious interior style. The materials used in the new model are more refined, incorporating leather, aluminum, and wood-grain accents. The center console design exudes a sense of luxury, typical of Japanese premium vehicles. The BOSE audio system, a common choice for many mid-to-high-end cars, delivers impressive sound quality. 2. Space: The new model emphasizes improved cabin space, particularly for second-row passengers, offering an additional 100mm of legroom compared to the previous model.
Last year when I drove the 2018 Patrol into Tibet, I paid special attention to its performance. This time, accompanying my friend to pick up the new 2019 model, I immediately noticed the changes. The most obvious difference is the front grille—the 2019 version features a more three-dimensional honeycomb design, and the metal skid plate on the bumper is also wider and thicker. As for the interior, although both models come with leather seats, the 2019 version has upgraded stitching with a diamond-pattern embossing, significantly improving both the feel and quality. The infotainment system has been upgraded from an 8-inch to a 9.2-inch screen, with much faster response times, and it now includes a practical wireless charging pad for phones. The powertrain remains largely unchanged, still using the same 4.0L engine, but I heard the 2019 model has optimized the transmission logic, showing a slight improvement in fuel efficiency of about 0.5L/100km.
