Exclusively dual-cab, 4×4, pick-up-bodied Navara ute to arrive in March at a near $2000 premium to the related Mitsubishi Triton
Nissan Australia has revealed local market details and pricing for its all-new fourth-generation Navara, set to arrive in March with a starting price of $53,348 before on-road costs.
The Navara will debut to the Australian market with a simplified, ‘no-frills’ model range of just four variants: the base SL from $53,348, ST from $56,765, ST-X from $63,177, and range-topping PRO-4X from $68,418.
A technical doppelgänger to Mitsubishi’s Triton, the Navara arrives sharing the same 150kW/470Nm 2.4-litre bi-turbo diesel, six-speed automatic transmission, 9.0-inch infotainment screen, and 3500kg braked towing capacity first locally introduced by Triton two years ago.
Both the Narava and Triton also share identical external dimensions in most guises, measuring 5320mm long, 1865mm wide, and 1795mm tall, driving on a 3130mm wheelbase. The range-topping Navara PRO-4X measures wider and taller, at 1930mm and 1815mm respectively.
But unlike Triton, which offers a variety of body shapes as well as the option of a six-speed manual transmission, Navara will be automatic-only, exclusively offered in dual-cab, tub-trayed, 4×4 guise — a decision which Nissan says caters to 90 percent of its existing market.
Navara also comes at a premium between $900 and $3500 over Triton when comparing like-for-like grades.
Nissan claims Navara will bring value in its own way to differentiate from Triton, in a hope to persuade buyers away from the three-diamond dual-cab. At the forefront of these changes are three locally developed suspension tunes by vehicle specialist Premcar.
Premcar’s three exclusive tunes are the result of 12 months and 18,500kms of driving across a variety of terrains. Navara SL and ST share one tune, likely payload and work focused, ST-X sports its own unique tune, likely for towing, and PRO-4X again has its own tune, likely for off-road.
Moreover, all Navara grades are standard-fit with a rear-locking differential and LED brightwork, with ST-X and PRO-4X additionally gaining Super Select four-wheel drive.
Navara prices will increase over their third-generation equivalents by between $1000-6300, and will come at an approximate $900-$3500 premium to the equivalent Triton model.
The base model Navara SL starts from $53,348 (up $2620 over previous gen) before on-road costs. Standard equipment includes an electronic rear diff lock, LED headlights and taillights, seven-inch instrument cluster, nine-inch infotainment screen, and dual-range transfer case offering 2H, 4H and 4L.
The SL sports 17-inch steel wheels wrapped with all-terrain tyres, and features a cloth and velour interior with silver stitching. A comprehensive suite of safety features including AEB, lane-keep assist, eight airbags, and blind-spot monitoring also comes as standard.
Nissan claims the Navara adds a $1300 JATO (a global automotive valuation and market analysis company) value over its nearest competitor, likely the $51,440 Mitsubishi Triton GLX dual-cab auto, by means of LED brightwork, locking diff, interior materials, DAB and tailgate assist.
A $1908 price difference separates the two models, leaving $608 ‘of value’ left unaccounted for.
The Navara ST starts from $56,765 (up $932) and adds 17-inch alloy wheels, LED foglamps, heated and folding mirrors, auto-dimming rearview mirror, leather-accent steering wheel, carpeted floors (vinyl in SL models), rear privacy glass and sports-bar.
The ST claims to provide $1330 of JATO value over its nearest competitor, likely the $53,790 Mitsubishi Triton GLX+ dual-cab auto, due to the trick-mirrors, LED brightwork, steering wheel trim and carpeted floors. The Navara ST commands a $2975 premium over its Triton GLX+ equivalent.
The Navara ST-X starts from $63,177 before on-road costs (up $2558). Standard equipment over the ST includes a Torsen limited-slip centre differential, seven terrain-specific drive-modes, hill-descent control, 18-inch alloy wheels, side-steps, tub liner, and coloured external flair.
Inside, the ST-X gains leather-accented seats, with power-adjustable drivers seat and heated front-row. Dual-zone climate control, a wireless device charger and push button start are also fit as standard.
The Navara ST-X will share a close rivalry with the $59,840 Mitsubishi Triton GLS dual-cab auto, adding a sports bar and tailgate assist over the Triton twin. JATO values this prospect at $1100 – $3337 separates the two utes.
Finally, the PRO-4X rounds out the 2026 Navara model range, starting from $68,418 (up $6135). It adds a unique front grille, 17-inch black alloys with all-terrain tyres, flared wheel arches, roof rails, unique tailgate badging, orange interior stitching, and tow-kit over the Navara ST-X.
The PRO-4X’s closest Triton rival is likely the $64,590 GSR. A standard-fit towball with a JATO value of $1100 separates the two models, which in reality are $3828 apart.
A PRO-4X Warrior variant has been confirmed to join the model range later in the year.
A five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty applied, which can be extended to up to ten years, (with a 300,000km cap) when serviced through an authorised Nissan repair centre. A fixed-price servicing cost of $499 applies for the first five dealer services.
The Navara is available in eight colours: Alpine White, Midnight Black and Outback Red as standard, or a choice between Blizzard White, Summit Silver, Boulder Grey, Horizon Blue or Kimberly Orange at a $995 premium.
Horizon Blue is only available on ST-X and PRO-4X models, while Kimberly Orange is exclusive to the ST-X.
All prices listed are before on-road costs.
