According to ETCM, the YD25DDTi 2.5-litre turbodiesel engine is said to be the most powerful 2.5-litre pickup truck in its segment, boasting 190 PS at 3,600 rpm and 450 Nm of torque from just 2,000 rpm. The new engine can be paired with a seven-speed automatic or a six-speed manual. Despite that, only the range-topping VL grade gets the full 190 PS and 450 Nm, while the lesser models will get 163 PS and 403 Nm of torque.

Starting from the bottom, we have the single cab Navara. This baseline variant can only be had with a six-speed manual. 16-inch steel wheels are also included. The single cab Navara NP300 is fitted with rear multi-leaf spring with shock absorber set up. Inside, the single cab variant has a basic vinyl interior and a basic FM radio with CD player.

Moving one level up is the Navara E grade. This is the lowest twin cab variant, and is largely similar to the single cab, save for the rear spoiler and rear suspension configuration. The E grade is equipped with a regular key entry like the SE variants.

ETCM has filled the midrange category with the V and SE grades. For these variants, front headlights are of the halogen type, with matching halogen DRLs. These variants still get the rear spoiler, though the roof rail isn’t included. Interior has fabric trim all around. The V grade also benefits gains a 5-inch touchscreen infotainment system with AUX, USB and Bluetooth connectivity as well as the i-Key keyless entry system. The SE grades will have to make do with a wide 2-DIN radio with AUX and USB connectivity. All twin cab variants also get six speakers inside.
