Nissan Patrol review, test drive

    A mighty 4x4 known for its off-roading prowess, the Patrol might be paving its way to our roads. This is what it feels like to drive the luxury SUV.

    Should I buy one?

    For now, you can’t. As mentioned before, Nissan is yet to finalise the Patrol for India. Even if brought in, the Patrol won’t come cheap and will be priced upwards of Rs 1 crore (estimated; ex-showroom, India).

    And that begs the question, is there really a market for the Patrol in India? Luxury SUV buyers already have plenty of options to choose from, all of which come with diesel engines and belong to more, well, premium manufacturers. Given the options already available, the Patrol, then, would make for an off-beat choice. It’s a model that will appeal to a small set of luxury SUV buyers who don’t mind looking beyond the badge, to whom the large V8’s petrol bills won’t be much of a bother and to those who simply want something as all-conquering as this. Sure, Nissan is unlikely to sell too many Patrols here but it’s also something we’d just love to see on (and off) Indian roads. Let’s just hope Nissan brings it us soon.
