Nissan has partnered with Icelandic pick up truck specialist Arctic Trucks to create a hardcore version of the Navara.

The Navara Off-Roader AT32 has a 20mm raised ride height, full underbody protection and larger off-road tyres.

Customers can also spec a snorkel for improved wading a locking front differential.

The enhancements are available on different combinations of the Navara Double Cab.

Visual enhancements include wheel arch extensions, designed to amplify the new taller stance and offer greater protection of the bodywork during extreme off-roading.

The 17-inch alloys are designed by Arctic Trucks, while the 32-inch tyres have been selected specifically to improve off-road traction while maintaining excellent on-road performance. Such a large tyre diameter allows the driver to reduce the pressure to further boost traction, for example, in soft sand or snow.

As with every Nissan LCV, the Navara AT32 comes with a five-year/100,000 miles warranty, plus Arctic Trucks’ five-year warranty on the new components.

Alex Smith, managing director, Nissan GB, said: “The Nissan Navara Off-Roader AT32 is the most capable Navara we’ve ever sold, and the CV Show is the perfect location for its debut. We believe the mix of enhanced off-road ability and upgraded exterior features will appeal to a new audience of both professional and recreational pickup customers.”
