GOOD NEWS!

Nissan SA confirmed that the Navara-based Nissan Terra is on the horizon for the SA Market.

A 7 seater with a 7 speed auto-box mated to that legendary awesome 2.3bi-turbo diesel engine of the current Navara.

Will undoubtedly outperform and outsell the lesser Fortuner, Everest and Meidsebussie Sport.

The Terra was revealed in China in April 2018 and was purposefully held back in the SA market for the following reasons:

1) To give potential buyers the chance to buy competing vehicles - this will ensure that these potential customers realize the shortcomings of these vehicles before savouring the awesomeness of the Terra;

2) To work out all the niggles of the engine and autobox experienced by current Navara Drivers. Not only will this ensure that even the Navara drivers consider adding this beast of a already 3 year old vehicle to their repertoire, but it will also get rid of the current Navara Moaners who constantly inundate Nissan Dealerships with silly and useless complaints about poor service and shoddy workmanship.

3) In fact, they have bargained their whole marketing strategy on the Navara Moaners to steer potential customers away from the Navara and straight into the Terra.

Looking forward to a test drive (possibly somewhere in the near future before I die of old age).

The beast:

I bet it will be another failure from Nissan returning rather dismal sales no matter how "good" the package is.
The new Fortuner is around the corner and it will probably continue to do well, as the facelift will bring us wider spec range than the current model along with more power.

Undoubtedly it will be a massive sales failure. Nissan can't even sell a turd to a dung beetle.

Here is a complete list of every capable 4x4 Nissan has made:

1. Safari
2. Patrol.

The End

XJ Junky would disagree with you...

Within the next few years this will be badged as a Patrol.

Say what you like about Nissan, but they make great looking vehicles...

That's lazy designing right there. Seems that they just took a side pic of the navara with a canopy on and connected the lines.

Not lazy but keeping costs down by having compatibility between similar model lines.

Looks like an evolution of the Xterra.

No he doesn't, his fall from 4x4 Grace has been so complete he even left the only 4x4 Forum he belonged to and went back to an Anything Butt 4x4 Forum.

Last I heard he was trying to convince himself that a part-time 4x4 AWD is, in fact, a 4WD...
