Developed exclusively for the Middle East

Tailored specifically for Middle Eastern driving conditions, the Patrol Nismo was developed using regional customer insights. Key enhancements include Nismo-tuned suspension with E-Dampers and a recalibrated 9-speed automatic transmission.

Aerodynamic and functional design

The SUV features functional aero upgrades like a redesigned front bumper for better brake cooling, grille air curtains, diffusers, and an extended rear spoiler. These enhancements improve aerodynamics, cooling, and downforce, while a Formula E-inspired rear fog lamp adds a performance aesthetic.
