The Nissan Patrol is a SUV manufactured by Nissan in Japan since 1950. The car is available in Australia, New Zealand, Central America, South America, South Africa, Western Europe, and the Middle East and it is in direct competition with the Toyota Land Cruiser. The Patrol is available with either two door (Short Wheel Base or SWB), four door wagon (LWB, Long Wheel Base) and Utility/Cab Chassis Variants. The old Y60 (GQ) platform is still manufactured as a military vehicle in the countries of Asia and the Middle East, and various versions of the Patrol are widely used by United Nations agencies. Users respect the vehicle for its power and durability, and modern version of the Nissan Patrol remains in production.

Name Variations This vehicle was sold in Japan under the name Nissan Safari. The Nissan Patrol was first sold in Australia during the 1960s, and was the first vehicle to drive across the Simpson Desert in Australia. This model was designated as the G60 Patrol. Until 1994, Ford rebadged the Australian version of the Y60 (GQ) Patrol, as the Maverick. The Nissan Patrol, particularly the short wheel base version or the Utility version, has been the "Winch Challenge" competitors vehicle of choice, due to its inherent driveline strength, ease of modification, relative light weight, and popularity. In some European countries the Nissan Patrol was for a short while marketed as Ebro Patrol. The Indian Army used the Nissan Patrol 1952 model under the light truck category. The name as per the Indian army records is Jonga. Under license from Nissan, the Indian government indigenously produced these vehicles, in their Vehicle Factory at Jabalpur. Jonga has been replaced by the lighter and more reliable Mahindra & Mahindra jeeps. Most army auctioned pieces have also been scrapped by their subsequent civilian owners. Hence the Jonga is becoming a rarity.

Future Since the Y61 (GU) Patrol design is now almost twenty years old, and its design differences from the Y60 are only relatively minor, Nissan is planning its replacement. That replacement is scheduled to appear sometime between late 2006 and early 2007. Observers say it is unlikely that the next Patrol will be built in Japan, and some speculate that the next version of the Nissan Patrol will have external design features similar to those of the 2006 Nissan Terranaut concept car, seen at the Geneva Motor Show. As yet there is no definitive information on which platform it will use, but rumors suggest that it could be Nissan's F platform. It is likely Nissan will choose that platform, given their pattern of attempting to reduce manufacturing costs across their range of vehicles. For the first time, Nissan plans to sell the vehicle in the United States by selling an upscale version through the Infiniti dealer network, following in the foot steps of Toyota's successful US launch of the Land Cruiser Prado through Lexus.

In Australia dealer principles were advised in November 2006 that the GU will undergo one last fastlift. This would be the GU Series V. A new Patrol would not be available until 2009 at earliest - Nissan has not yet committed to the upgrade - the traditional markets of Australia, Middle East and Africa potentially don't have enough volume to create a separate chassis that is different from either the Titan or Navara/Pathfinder. In addition, fuel prices have had an effect on sales of large 4wd wagons in Australia. The Nissan Pathfinder and Terrano were originally compact SUVs and they are now mid-size SUVs. ...
