What is the running and servicing costs of a Nissan Navara?
All Nissan Navara’s need servicing every 12 Months months or 20,000km km, whichever comes first.
Our expert take on Nissan Navara drivability.
The 2023 Nissan Navara range is powered by a pair of 2.3-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engines.
The base, single-turbo in the SL manual produces 120kW of power and 403Nm of torque, while the twin-turbo version in all other variants produces 140kW and 450Nm.
The manual transmission is a six-speed unit, while the automatic is a seven-speed automatic.
Four-wheel drive variants have part-time four-wheel drive with low-range and an electronically-locking rear differential.
Options list for the Nissan Navara
You can find more details on all the options and inclusions across the Nissan Navara variants on the official website, and within the official Nissan Navara specifications page.
What colours are available for the Nissan Navara
The 2023 Nissan Navara range is available in the following exterior paint colours, depending on the variant.
Every colour apart from Black Star and Solid White costs an additional $650.
The 2023 Nissan Navara is covered by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty like the wider Nissan range.
Maintenance is required every 12 months or 20,000km, whichever comes first.
Though Nissan has kept it fresh, the Navara can't help but be a little squeezed by the likes of the more value-priced Mitsubishi Triton (not to mention the GWM Ute and LDV T60) on one side and the recently redesigned Isuzu D-Max and Mazda BT-50 on the other.
Then there are the segment's best sellers, the Ford Ranger and Toyota HiLux.
The Triton can't tow as much and the list of safety equipment is shorter in most of its variants, but it counters with lower prices. The D-Max and BT-50 twins offer an interior that feels newer, though their 3.0-litre turbo-diesel doesn't offer any more power or torque than the Navara's twin-turbo 2.3-litre diesel.
The Ranger is on the cusp of a slick, more tech-focused redesign and the Toyota HiLux's top engine packs more torque, plus that Toyota badge seems to carry more weight with buyers.

Though it rides well and has a quiet cabin, the Navara is arguably a mid-pack offering in the ute segment.
Its performance isn't top of the class, it isn't the cheapest, and its interior is showing its age, but fundamentally it still does enough right to deserve being on your shortlist.
