Nissan Patrol Y63 exterior highlights
The new Patrol is also a bit less rounded in its appearance compared with the previous generation. At the front, you find a large grille in a black piano with sleek vertical headlamps and an E-shaped LED DRL daytime running light pattern. Sitting right above the same is a thin chrome bar that connects both and subsequently moves back to join up with the fenders. The design of the front bumper becomes part of this inspiration, and we see what is essentially a wide air dam in landlock somewhere between horizontal mode. Turn indicators mount unto the base perimeter for lighting, most likely one arrow cue headlights like those for my favorite LR3.
In profile, the look is a cocktail of angular and curvy surfaces. Sturdy-tough sheet-metal work combined with elegant glasshouse that radiates full-size SUVs. The glass behind the rear door angles upwards to create a floating roof effect. Features like contrast roof shade will be exclusive to higher variants and electrically operated footsteps for front and rear passengers.
On the other hand, the rear end seems to depend on both hatchbacks and sedans, with an upright tailgate finished off by rounded edges at least where it meets the body and an angular bend that carries over from the main windows in a horizontal fashion. A high-mounted stop lamp rests in the integrated spoiler. The fresh Patrol lists have vertical tail-lamps combined using a perpendicular LED light strip. The black surround on the tail-lamp housings is completed with a connecting panel just beneath the centrally-mounted light. The rear bumper also boasts a tall look and gets faux aluminum strips extending towards this unit’s ends in plastic.

The HVAC controls are divided into zones and toggles, while a rotary selector for terrain modes is flanked by military-style pushbutton switches that can be used with gloves on.
Top spec models offer a 12-speaker Klipsch premium sound system and an infotainment screen to complement it. There are two 12.8-inch screens available for the rear passengers of those models, too. They can play content streamed from their own devices via HDMI or USB connections—and these also come as part of one $3,000 option pack alongside the AMG Driver’s Package in cars without that track mode (UPD).
