Nissan Patrol Y63 2025 preview: Engine, price, release date & more details for new LandCruiser rival

The CarsGuide Podcast

The 2025 Nissan Patrol Y63 is one of the most anticipated new models that's yet to be revealed. That said, there are plenty of clues as to what the seventh-generation upper-large SUV has in store for buyers and fans alike thanks to the mechanically Infiniti QX80 that made its debut in April 2024.

To that end, the big news is what is, or rather isn't, under the bonnet: a 5.6-litre naturally aspirated petrol V8 engine. Instead, in a sign of the times, a 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 takes its place, albeit upping power from 298kW to 336kW, and torque from 560Nm to 698Nm. The seven-speed torque-converter automatic transmissions upgrades to a nine-speed unit, too.

But, of course, there's a lot more to the new Patrol Y63 than just its powertrain. In this news video, CarsGuide Managing Editor Tim Nicholson is joined by Deputy News Editor John Law and Contributing Journalist Andrew Chesterton to discuss everything else that we know so far.
