70 Years of Patrol
Known as the Hero of All Terrains, the Nissan Patrol is a cut above the rest – combining power and rugged capabilities with opulent luxury to offer an unparalleled driving experience. The Patrol’s 70-year legacy is testament to the powerful connections that it has formed with drivers over the decades as a true partner, enriching the lives of families and communities from around the world.
The Patrol nameplate has remained an unchanging testament to Nissan engineering, despite the fact that the car has changed dramatically over the years in terms of design, performance, role, and technology. It is still one of the world's most loved and respected SUVs, having earned its reputation in the scorching heat of deserts, rugged mountain slopes, and modern city streets – a genuine hero of all terrains. This four-wheel drive vehicle has also amassed an enviable reputation and trophy cabinet including three Guinness World Records in addition to becoming the first car to climb Japan’s revered Mount Fuji, a 2500-meter ascent.
But, even more important than the car itself, are its many owners over the years – the legends of the Patrol who have brought its legacy to life. The Patrol is distinguished by its drivers' diverse and unique experiences, each of whom has their own story to tell. This year, as the Patrol celebrates its 70th anniversary, we honor this enduring human connection that embodies the Patrol's true and lasting legacy.
