The Nissan Navara: What It Offers and How to Improve Its Performance

The Nissan Navara is one of the most popular trucks in Australia as it is considered to provide a car-like driving experience with the perks of an all-terrain vehicle that can withstand a ton of abuse and go through anything you put it against. It’s one of the most efficient vehicles in terms of fuel economy, and is one of the best towing vehicles with a towing capacity of 3.5 tonnes. Unlike most other trucks that use simple leaf-spring suspension, the Nissan uses a complex, multi-link arrangement that utilises coil-springs instead. Furthermore, it’s available in 5 trim levels and 2 bodystyles, including a king cab with a longer load bed, short rear doors and occasional rear seats, and double cab with a shorter load bed, four full doors and proper rear seats. Additionally, as is the case with most trucks, the Navara is available in special editions, so if you’re looking for something more unorthodox, keep an eye out for the latest models and variations.
