The 2020 Nissan Navara range is available with a choice of rear- or four-wheel drive, manual or automatic transmissions, and cab-chassis and ute bodies in single, dual and King Cab configurations.

    Prices range from $27,150 before on-road costs for the base RX Single Cab Chassis 4×2 with a manual transmission to $66,290 before on-roads for the N-Trek Warrior 4×4 ute with an automatic transmission.

    The Navara is locked in a battle for the title of Australia’s fourth favourite ute, sitting well behind the market-leading Toyota HiLux and Ford Ranger as well as the Mitsubishi Triton but selling in similar numbers to the Isuzu D-Max. Its range is capped by the locally-engineered N-Trek Warrior, outfitted by Premcar in Victoria.
