those looking for a fully built and engineered 4WD built to factory standards. With help from Premcar, these Nissan Patrols look, drive and sound better than the standard Patrol.
If you're lucky enough to have not bought one early, Nissan have even updated the interior to finally move the Patrol's insides out from the late 2010's. The new screen and instrument cluster make a world of a difference in day-to-day liveability.
It's a car for those who know they need the space, the capacity and the power. It's an awesome option if you plan to spend a lot of time away from the road and big cities. It also doubles as a far more affordable V8 powered alternatives to a Defender V8 or G63 AMG.
The trade-off is the fuel bill. It's massive. You're required to fill with premium to extract all the performance you pay for from the naturally aspirated 5.6L petrol V8 too. The rolling resistance from the all-terrain tyres and ancient auto gearbox increases your fuel consumption compared to some more modern rivals. And it doesn't help that this car is functionally a brick in the world of aerodynamics.
It's a reliable and easy to live with 4x4 for those who can afford to park and fuel. If you're short on European 4x4 SUV money, it's a logical choice if you're chasing V8 power and sounds. Otherwise, it's really a statement piece for those who don't use the Patrol to its full off-road potential.

I purchased a demo Nissan QASHQAI from Nissan Traralgon in June 2025 after inspecting the vehicle with the sales manager, Nicole. Once the finance… Read more
was finalised, I arranged a pickup date for the vehicle.
On the day of pickup, I noticed the original carpets were missing. Nicole assured me they would be posted to my Melbourne address within three weeks. I also noticed tissues stuffed inside the glove box area. When I questioned Nicole about it, my concern was ignored, and unfortunately I did not inspect it further at the time.
After waiting nearly three months without receiving the carpets, I contacted Nicole again. At that point, she advised me that I would need to come to Traralgon to collect them because the glove box also needed replacement. That was when I realised the glove box issue had been temporarily covered up with tissues rather than properly addressed before the sale.
After raising my concerns, Nissan eventually arranged for someone to come to my house to replace the glove box and deliver the carpets.
Later, after driving nearly 10,000 km, I took the car to another Nissan dealership closer to my home for servicing and discovered the service book was missing as well. I then spent considerable time trying to follow this up with Nicole. She rarely answered calls and only replied to messages after repeated follow-ups, saying they were waiting for a replacement service book to arrive.
Fortunately, Jacqui from the dealership stepped in to assist me. She was professional, responsive, and kept me updated throughout the process until I finally received the service book about three weeks later.
I want to share this experience for anyone considering buying a vehicle from Nissan Traralgon. While I appreciate Jacqui’s professionalism and support, my experience with the sales process and post-sale communication from Nicole was extremely disappointing.
Biggest lemon ever.. Where do I start? Purchased 2009 ST, 6 sp manual model in 2014, 90000kms on clock. By 130,000km, it had already needed shocks,… Read more
clutch, alternator, battery and EGR replaced. Cruise control stopped working at about 130000km. Electrical wiring issues with brake and headlight constantly blowing. Timing chain replaced 18 months ago at nearly $2700. I’ve only kept it due to using it to tow horse float but no Longer have any trust in this vehicle to not break down in traffic while towing so it’s pretty much useless now. My mechanic refuses to repair it now as he says I’m just wasting my money. Too much blow by in engine. It’s now occasionally going into limp mode and error code of camshaft position sensor. Plastic trim around console peeling and arm rests also. Just going through all my receipts and I’ve spent close to $22,000 in repairs (not including services) It’s done 290,000km now and can’t wait to send it to the scrap heap.
If you have half a day spare to sit and listen to on hold music, please call this company for a simple request to change payment days. However if you call for new finance, expect someone to answer on the second ring

Kangan Drive, Berwick.)
• 12 November 2025: Our Nissan Juke was booked in for a routine service with no existing issues or concerns. The vehicle was serviced and returned to us the same day. • While driving home immediately after the service, warning messages appeared on the dashboard: o “System Fault” o “Engine Malfunction – Power Reduced – Service Now” • We contacted the dealership straight away and returned the car to Berwick Nissan on the same day. • The dealership was unable to identify or fix the issue. Despite repeated phone calls and visits, we received little to no communication or updates. • After persistent follow-ups, the vehicle was finally returned to us on 19 December 2025. • Unfortunately, the same engine malfunction warnings reappeared again, indicating the issue was not resolved. • The vehicle was returned to the dealership once more on 30 December 2025, where the Service Manager assured us the matter would be handled urgently.
As of today ( 20th Jan,2026 ) , we are still waiting for our vehicle to be repaired and deemed safe to drive.

1 YEAR IN UPDATE. The leaf is still going strong. I have lost 1 bar (9>8)SOH (state of health). I bought at 70.70% and now down to about 68.90%.… Read more
Driven over 11000km without any issues. I still have 100km + range showing( not tested) and l still recommend buying one, although they are starting to get rare now. If you have the ability to drive short distances and then return home to top up, you will rarely notice the range limitation. Super easy, reliable and fun.
Recently purchased a 2014 Japanese Autech variant of the Leaf. So far, l am very very happy with my purchase. l bought it with 9 bars of battery (70.70% SOH) which gives me a real world range of about 90-100km. It is only for city use and this is where it excels. Its nippy, quiet and comfortable and l charge it off my solar, so motoring is essentially free. Its a car thats easy to drive, just a normal car with an electric motor. Leafs have been around a long time now and there are no real issues with the design or build quality. The battery is the weakest link but now batteries can be purchased ex China for somewhere between $4000-$15000, depending on size and its a reasonably straightforward job to replace for a competant person. My advice if buying: only buy if you can charge at home. take a Leaf owner who understands the car with you when viewing your purchase. Get an OBD11 wifi dongle and the Leafspy app. Batteries with: 9 bars + should be pretty good 6-9 bars may be ok but limited range. 6 bars or less of battery will probably need a new battery.
All in all, a great car. Don't let the naysayers talk you out of it. A fantastic city car and an affordable entry into the EV market.

Nissan Australia say, it was delivered that way from Japan. Due to emissions testing.
I refused delivery. VIN JN1GBAZ34A0240015
It felt dodgy, Nissan Australia say it was randomly chosen for emissions testing in Japan prior to delivery. When I asked how many undergo this test before they enter Australia...
"I'm not a statistician"
The dealer....yeh na, never seen it. (His already returned it as can't sell as new)
Nissan "the dealer needs to be educated"
1000% felt dodge.
Probably an awesome car. I'll never know,.
I could write to NISSAN in Japan with its VIN, prove the emissions testing is rubbish or not ..So what?
If verbal rubbish. Don't trust Nissan Australia to deliver me a new car.
If It's NOT verbal rubbish. Don't trust Nissan Japan to deliver a new car.
Either way, no choice. Don't touch it right!
What a waste of four months of excitement.
Nissan Australia CEO, should be aware of this
Without direct oversight of the CEO of Nissan... wouldn't even contemplate a purchase.
Bloody shame.

Absolutely disgraceful customer service from Diarmund and the team at Nissan Springwood. When I purchased a brand new vehicle, I was never provided… Read more
with a spare key or the vehicle log book — something you would assume is the absolute bare minimum when buying a new car. It was only discovered later when preparing to sell the vehicle, at which point I was told I would need to pay almost $600 to replace the missing key.
Rather than taking responsibility for what was clearly their failure, Diarmund refused to speak to me directly and hid behind his staff, who spent more than a week dodging calls, avoiding communication, and passing the issue around without resolution.
The arrogance, lack of accountability, and complete disregard for customers after the sale is honestly astounding.
Once they have your money, don’t expect professionalism, honesty, or even basic decency.
If this review prevents even one person from dealing with this dealership, then posting it will have been worth it.
