Since we're all so busy caught up in the headwind of newcars, here's another one to add to the rush - the 2021 Nissan Navara NP300 has been seen in Thailand without any camera-tricking camoflague wrap.

Wearing Nissan's 'V-motion' family face, the new Navara (which has been updated after 6 years) will have redesigned LED daytime-running lights (DRLs) - things we found out in the preview video linked at the end of the article.
Powertrain changes for the upcoming Navara shouldn't be too major, which means that the new Navara could still be propelled with a 2.5-litre turbodiesel (163 PS / 403 Nm or 190 PS / 450 Nm) paired to a 7-speed automatic.
The last time we saw the facelifted Navara was last month.
That said, some Thai sources have hypothesised that the new Navara will instead have the YS23DDTT 2.3-litre, DOHC twin-turbodiesel making 190 PS and 450 Nm, paired to a 7-speed automatic transmission - the same powertrain found in the Nissan Terra SUV.
The Nissan Terra was seen here a year ago, whatever happened to it?
Looking at it, the Navara could debut by the end of this year or early 2021, stepping up against the Ford Ranger and Mitsubishi Triton. Don't forget there's the all-new Isuzu D-Max and updated Toyota Hilux too.
With humble beginnings collecting diecast models and spending hours virtually tuning dream cars on the computer, his love of cars has delightfully transformed into a career. Sanjay enjoys how the same passion for cars transcends boundaries and brings people together.
