Nissan's largest off-road vehicle is called the Patrol. The Patrol is positioned as a full-size SUV and is also Nissan's first full-size SUV. The first-generation Patrol was officially launched in 1951, positioned as a hardcore off-road vehicle. Taking the 2018 Patrol as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5165mm, width 1995mm, height 1955mm, with a wheelbase of 3075mm and a body weight of 2537kg. The 2018 Patrol features double-wishbone independent suspension both in the front and rear. It is equipped with a 4.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 279PS, a maximum torque of 394Nm, and a maximum power of 205kW, paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission.
As an off-road enthusiast, I often keep an eye on various vehicle models. Nissan's largest off-road SUV is undoubtedly the Patrol, also known as the Nissan Patrol. This vehicle is quite famous in the off-road community. I've test-driven it a few times, and its power is truly impressive—the V8 engine has explosive force, making climbing hills and slopes feel like a walk in the park. The body structure is robust, with a high ground clearance that can handle various terrains like deserts and swamps. The four-wheel-drive system responds quickly, making driving both safe and thrilling. In terms of space, its ultra-spacious seven-seat design is perfect for long trips. When my friends and I go camping in the wild, it can carry a ton of gear. However, the fuel consumption is on the high side, making it less economical for city driving. But if you're someone who loves adventure, this drawback is completely acceptable. Maintenance is straightforward, with parts being easy to find, and the price is reasonable for a high-end SUV.
