The Nissan Patrol has finally received smartphone mirroring, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto among several feature additions for 2024.

    UPDATE, 16/07/2024 – Nissan Australia has increased the asking price of the Patrol range by $1000 as part of a wider range price hike.

    From April, Nissan’s flagship SUV gained a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system through a partnership between the Japanese brand and Melbourne-based firm Directed Technologies.

    Included in the new infotainment system is DAB+ digital radio and an iGO Street Navigation system, which comes with a complimentary one-month subscription to Hema 4×4 Navigation for off-road guidance.

    Additional changes include the removal of one USB-A port for a faster USB-C connection and a 15-watt wireless smartphone charging pocket.

    A small storage bin now sits where the 8.0-inch screen was previously placed.

    The interior upgrades continue with a wide-angle reversing camera, a digital rear-view mirror, and a centre console cool box between the front seats.

    The Patrol’s existing six-speaker sound system has been enhanced for the luxury Ti-L variant, with the speakers now supplied by Infinity – not to be confused with Nissan’s luxury brand Infiniti.

    The upgraded 2024 Nissan Patrol initially incurred a price increase of $3000, and now another $1000 has been added to the entire range. The entry-level Ti is now priced from $88,900 before on-road costs, the Ti-L begins at $101,600 and the Warrior tops out at $105,160.

    To the end of June, Nissan has sold 3943 Patrols this year. Its Toyota LandCruiser arch-rival logged 8199 sales in the first half of this year, though this figure includes both the old 70 Series and the new 300 Series.
