Nissan Navara (2014-2022) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Large load bed and generous payload	Apple CarPlay and Android Auto unavailable before 2019 facelift
More car-like to drive than most pick-ups	The SsangYong Musso has a longer warranty
Punchy and fuel-efficient diesel engine	Not as wieldy as a conventional SUV

Quick Summary

The Nissan Navara (2014-2022) is Nissan's popular pick-up truck, which has become increasingly sought-after in the UK thanks to favourable tax treatment. Available in both double-cab and king-cab body styles, the double-cab is more popular, offering four doors and decent rear-seat space. The Navara excels in practicality, with a large load bed, generous payload capacity of up to 1,315kg, and impressive towing capability of 3,500kg. It's a genuine workhorse that combines commercial vehicle robustness with car-like comfort.

The standout feature is the punchy and efficient 2.3-litre diesel engine, available with either 161bhp or 187bhp, delivering strong torque figures of 313lb ft or 332lb ft respectively. This makes the Navara more powerful than many rivals whilst maintaining excellent fuel economy—early models achieved 44.9mpg, improving to 46.3mpg after 2016 updates, and further refined post-2019. Coil-spring rear suspension provides a more comfortable ride than traditional leaf springs, though it's not as refined as a conventional passenger car. Service intervals are competitive at 12,500 miles or two years, keeping running costs low. The Navara earned a four out of five Euro NCAP safety rating and offers excellent value as an all-rounder in the pick-up class.

Best for: Commercial users, those requiring a large load bed and generous payload, buyers seeking low running costs and fuel efficiency, and those wanting a more car-like driving experience than traditional pick-ups.

Not ideal for: Those prioritising the longest warranty (SsangYong Musso offers longer), drivers wanting the latest infotainment technology on pre-2019 models, or those preferring the manoeuvrability of a conventional SUV.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Navara if: You're a commercial user or require a large load bed and generous payload, seek low running costs and fuel efficiency, or want a more car-like driving experience than traditional pick-ups.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise the longest warranty, require the latest infotainment technology on pre-2019 models, or prefer the manoeuvrability of a conventional SUV.

Competitive Position: The Nissan Navara (2014-2022) is an excellent all-rounder in the pick-up truck market, offering outstanding practicality, generous payload capacity, and impressive fuel economy. Whilst the Ford Ranger edges ahead with a higher user rating and overall CarGurus rating, the Navara remains highly competitive, particularly for those prioritising low running costs and a more refined driving experience. The Mitsubishi L200 offers better value deals, but the Navara's superior fuel efficiency and car-like handling make it a sensible choice for both commercial and personal use. The Volkswagen Amarok, though powerful, returns poorer fuel economy and has a lower overall rating.
