2015 Nissan Navara NP300 Review: RX, ST, ST-X; On-Road Manners Of An SUV - The Motor Report
In the up-spec cars, unless you looked behind, you would not pick you were in a commercial ute - such is the interior quality and feel. Power/torque: 140kW/450Nm (twin-turbo ST, ST-X), 120kW/403Nm (single turbo RX). Fuel consumption:. claimed (manual) 6. 6 l/100km | tested 9. 0 l/100km. claimed (auto) 7. 0 l/100km | tested 8. 3 l/100km. For the new 'D23' NP300 Navara , all-new really though the bones of the chassis are mostly unchanged, that moment was found with all wheels in the air. Up until that point, our views were firming on the merits of the new Navara's coil-sprung multi-link rear suspension, but had not quite fixed. Even the better handling contenders, like the new Triton and benchmark Volkswagen Amarok , can be a little jiggly with an empty tub and inclined to 'hop' on corrugations. Not the new Nissan. It's not all roses, and we'll get to the debits in a moment, but this is the best 'empty tub' rear-end you will find at the moment. Better, aside from the occasional drumming from the rear, at the wheel of the new Navara you could be forgiven for forgetting you were in a commercial ute. Source: www.themotorreport.com.au
