Can't get the link to post, but anybody else see that Mercedes Benz is using the new Navara as its donor for the X-class mid size pickup in Australia & South Africa, due 2018? Not bad looking in off road trim, but the specs are questionable...
Official debut today in Sweden. Its going to be a very nice truck. Awesome diesel engine choices, and the same drive train as the Navara, locking center, and rear diff, transfer case. At this point, no plans for state side.
Such a waste not to bring it here, no other country spends $60-80k on trucks with the volume or frequency that the US does. Just look at how many F-150 king ranch editions have been sold over the last decade! I think the issue is we don't currently buy enough midsize trucks here & Nissan probably doesn't want US competition with the new frontier in the pipeline. I bet we'll see it around 2020 though, even the wife would drive that truck!
