Crown Motors Group Kenya has launched the single-cab derivative of the New Nissan Navara.The new pickup range delivers an enhanced level of safety, comfort, and driving pleasure while continuing to bring the durability, reliability, and versatility that it is known for. This follows the introduction of the new Navara double-cab pickup in September 2021 in the market.
“The single cab comes with an impressive list of best-in-class features that makes it the perfect partner to get the job done right,” said Tony Voorhout, Managing Director of Crown Motors Group. “It also offers high levels of safety and security from the entry grade, including driver and passenger airbags as standard, as well as antilock braking and electronic brake-force distribution.”
Over the many decades, since the first Nissan pickup hit the road, the Navara has continued to accompany and empower customers in many facets of their lives.Building on more than 85 years of Nissan pickup heritage, the new Nissan Navara represents the pinnacle of our years’ experience in building tough reliable pickups.
A reliable partner for work or travel, the new Navara comes with many best-in-class technologies, including an array of Nissan Intelligent Mobility features and safety systems, making it the most advanced Navara yet Improved pickup functionality Powering the Navara is a 2.5l turbo diesel engine that has proven reliable in the toughest African driving conditions.The powertrain was chosen as it meets the performance, economy, and durability requirements of customers in this demanding segment.
The engine is available in two levels of output -The high output engine delivers 140 kW of power and 450 Nm torque.The mid-output engine (XE and SE grades) produces 120 kW of power and 403 Nm torque. For those drivers using the vehicle as a workhorse, the single-cab pickup has a load capacity of up to 1144 kg, with a reinforced body and suspension.
A strengthened rear axle and improved truck bed volume make the vehicle the ultimate worksite partner, ready to take on any challenges whilst still offering optimal room and comfort.For pickup customers, one of the most essential qualities is the payload, and Nissan’s engineers worked hard to increase it, delivering segment-leading capacity.
When in four-wheel-drive mode, the Navara activates its Active Brake Limited Slip Differential system (ABLS), which manages power delivery and wheel braking between the front and rear axles and between the left and right of the vehicle, depending on traction and speed.Working with the Vehicle Dynamic Control system (VDC) and ABS brakes, this system enables drivers to be more confident and feel secure when towing large payloads and driving through muddy terrain with less acceleration and brake operation.
Enhanced interior comfort.
Inside, the new Navara features improved quietness, thanks to the increased amounts of sound-deadening insulation and laminated windshield and front windows, further reducing the stress for both driver and passenger.Additionally, the cockpit is now more convenient,
and driver-orientated. With all these features, it’s clear the all-new Nissan Navara is a capable, tough pickup that is ready to work. The decades of heritage Nissan has in its stead means this vehicle is the best Navara yet, with a safer, more comfortable, and pleasurable drive.
