About the Nissan Patrol Y62
The Y62-generation Nissan Patrol marked a significant shift for the nameplate, moving from a rugged, live-axle workhorse to a luxury-oriented, independent-suspension SUV. Powered by the VK56VD V8 engine, it was designed primarily for the Middle Eastern and Australian markets where its desert-conquering ability and high towing capacity are legendary. While it shares a platform with the Infiniti QX80 and Nissan Armada, the Patrol retains a distinct identity as a durable off-roader equipped with Hydraulic Body Motion Control. It remains a cult favourite for its smooth power delivery and immense cabin space, though it was never officially sold in the UK or US under the Patrol name.
