What is the Patrol?
2 Answers
Patrol, known as 'Tule' in Chinese, is Nissan's first full-size SUV. It retains the rugged off-road style while incorporating numerous fashionable and technological elements. The details are as follows: 1. Exterior: The new Patrol features three chrome horizontal bars in the grille area for decoration, along with a blackened front grille paired with large chrome accents, giving the front fascia a very imposing visual effect. In terms of dimensions, the new vehicle measures 5165×199.5×195.5 cm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 307.5 cm. 2. Interior: The Patrol emphasizes a warm light color scheme, complemented by a slightly larger four-spoke multifunction leather steering wheel and extensive wood grain trim inside the cabin, further enhancing its luxurious feel. 3. Features: The new vehicle is equipped with cruise control, collision warning, lane departure warning, and lane change assist functions. 4. Powertrain: The new Patrol V is powered by a naturally aspirated engine with a maximum output of 205 kW (279 PS) and a peak torque of 394 Nm, paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission. Additionally, the vehicle features a body-on-frame construction, along with an intelligent four-wheel-drive system and a locking rear differential.
Last year when my friend was car shopping, he researched the Patrol - turns out this beast is none other than the legendary Nissan Patrol! The ultimate hardcore off-roader beloved by Middle Eastern tycoons, stretching over 5 meters long like a mobile fortress. My cousin's 5.6L V8 model feels like driving a tank when you sit inside. It features a body-on-frame construction with full-time 4WD, outperforming the Land Cruiser in desert driving. But city fuel consumption is brutal - even with a full tank, the range display shows less than 500km. The latest facelift adopted Nissan's V-motion grille, with taillights resembling geometric pen sketches. The Middle Eastern version even comes with a suede roof lining.
