Navara is the European version of Nissan Frontier truck that we will find in the US. Styling is the same, while two pickup has different driving setup. Also, the new 2019 Nissan Navara is going to be available with a diesel engine, which is not happening yet with Frontier.
The rest of the truck is pretty much the same as on its sibling. So, most information about 2019 Navara we will find on the current Frontier. However, the Japanese carmaker could launch few special trim levels for European buyers. Besides that, the new Nissan Navara can expect facelift and minor changes inside and outside the vehicle.
2019 Nissan Navara Changes and Redesign
The new 2019 Nissan Navara will have plenty of options to choose from. First of all, the truck will have two cab types. Buyers will pick either Crew or king cab, while the single cab is still missing on this vehicle. Furthermore, there are five different trim levels. The most exciting will definitely be the Pro-4X, with the special tuning of the drive system. However, the most expensive and the one with luxurious features is Desert Runner.

Changes on the 2019 Nissan Navara will include slight modification of the front fascia. However, the truck is going to keep grille and bumper, so no big things are happening on the exterior. The same story we will hear inside the cabin.
Besides some updates on the infotainment system, only safety could suffer significant changes. Boosting the air-bag system and adding cameras to the vehicle will be appreciated even if these raise the price of the truck.

Under the bonnet of the 2019 Nissan Navara will be a 2.5-liter DOHC engine. The same 4-cylinder unit is not exactly the same as before. After the revisit of engineers, it will be capable to produce 153 horses and 171 pound-feet of torque. Also, by using the lightweight materials for body parts, Nissan will save 50-100 pounds on weight. That will lead to better fuel economy.

Nevertheless, two trucks will have similar off-road drive characteristics. A 6-speed automatic transmission shift gears smoothly. Also, the 2019 Nissan Navara is coming with the alternative all-wheel-drive system. This one will provide more traction and balance than a standard 2WD configuration.
2019 Nissan Navara Release Date and Price
Since the release of the third generation, Nissan made no big updates on the Navara. The truck had a special version in 2016. At the car show in Frankfurt, we could see EnGuard concept. Nevertheless, this was a one-time appearance.
So, with the announcement of the 2019 Nissan Navara, fans are thrilled to see more changes and updates. We believe that price will start at $23,000. That makes Navara slightly more expensive from its US sibling.
