Nissan will be adding two more variants to its Nissan Navara line-up soon, and both of them will be manual. The two manual models will be called the Standard and the SE.
Instead of the 5-speed auto, you’ll get a 6-speed manual gearbox, which is a first in the pick-up segment in Malaysia. The engine is the same 2.5 litre YD25DDTi engine which is the most powerful engine in its segment, producing 174 PS and 403Nm of torque. The engine is intercooled and has VGT.
The list of equipment will also be a downgrade from the current LE Automatic. The xenon headlamps will be replaced by halogens, the seats will be fabric, the rearview mirrors will lose its auto-dimming function, the CD changer will be replaced with a single CD, and the 6 speaker system will be downgraded to 4 speakers.
Some plastic bits in the interior which used to have a silver finish will also be replaced by the beige interior colour. On the outside, the door mirrors will have their chrome finish replaced by body colour paint.
What the SE has over the Standard are ABS brakes and the dual front SRS airbags, which the Standard version lacks. So far no prices of the new manual Standard and SE have been released yet, but expect them to of course be lower than the RM105,800 that you have to pay for the automatic Navara LE in Peninsular Malaysia. With the equipment deleted off the Standard compared to the top of the range LE, it’d better be significantly lower!
Would love to have one…
6 Speed?? wow…
hi. Navara 6 speed manual? ya, already saw one in Tawau town last Friday, as the manual gearknob is very recognise with 6 speed indicator.
403nm torque!!
It would be something if there was a 6speed Navara SE with 2WD only.
The Triton got it partially right, just that Mitsu in all its wisdom decided to put that weasy motor inside.
This truck is huge.
6 speed manual 2wd navara shud be lighter…..its a drift machine…hehe
The Navara IS a right-looking 4WD pickup as opposed to the wrong-looking Triton (Triton was a big flop in Europe, and rightly so too). The Navara is big and powerful, front looks tough and imposing, all the traits of a 4WD pickup. And now mated to a 6-speed manual transmission makes it even more desirable (4WD pickups should be MT in the first place). If it is priced below RM100K, it'll blow all its competitors away, come rain or shine!
6 speed! amazing

haha..put dis engine under exora hood…
i have driven a 6 speed with the 2.5TD engine before…it's faster and more economical at the same time, good acceleration for a pickup as well
with vector,210hp,490n
ETCM should offer lower torque/BHP variants too as the current one too powerful for those not looking for power. Unless ETCM can reduce the price, seemingly RM105k little premium for most.
By the way, Navara is the king of SUT.
I own both Navara and Triton and what can i say is that … there are different class…. it really depends on the criteria that you're looking from a pickup truck.
fantastic. somehow i knew this was coming, a manual version with lower level trim.
pretty certain this will cost under 100k. and will kill all the competition with that monster of an engine. euro 2 will also be friendlier on the engine.
too powerful?
lmao~
Happy bday PaulTan!
it is your birthday Paul??
ETCM should also bring in the Nissan Pathfinder/Armada to compete with the Pajero sport and Chevrolet Captiva.
Pathfinder with this engine, though little big will make Pajero Triton Sport and unFortuner seemed irrelevant.
Triton much better than more popular SUT if you not really for extra bed for your cargo. Its dynamic suit certain markets requirement though l'd love to have Navara more than the diamond brand. One need to drive Triton before comment as the passenger cabin more ergonomic than Ford, Mazda, Frontier, Tata and more carlike position.

It's not "kundahsang" its Kundasang…..are you Sabahan? I think you are not Sabahan.
My navara has had major problems at 20,000k's replaced clutch, at 30,000K;s replaced injector pump, at 50,000K's replaced timing gear & chain, at 68,000k's replaced injectors, at 70,000K's had engine oil leak, at 74,000K's engine running roughly and blowing smoke, engine needs to be bored out to 020" oversize with new pistons & rings.This engine has not had a hard time it has been serviced at the proper times….WHAT A HEAP OF SHIT

'403nm torque!!'
It also came into my mind: Why only 403Nm ?
The antique VW 2.5TDI, which dates back to 1989 and which is only manufactured for the 'VW Transporter' nowadays, has 174hp and 400Nm.
1989 was 20 yrs ago…
On the other hand: The price of the Navara is okay and YD25DDTi with VGT sounds good. ;)
I wonder pick up has fixed their airbag issue… last time it was granted with 1 and half star only by EuroNCAP…
big-ass mother trucker.
would any 1 crazy enough 2 swap in entire gtr vr38dett drivetrain?
depends on the year.
the most powerful 2.5 TDI in the 1989-2003 transporter was a straight-5 putting out 151 PS@ 4000 rpm and 295 Nm@1900 rpm.
the 2004 2.5TDI in the VW transporter and toureg put out 174PS@3500 rpm and 400Nm@2000 rpm.
according to wikipedia, the nissan YD25DDTI high power, which has been in production since 1998, is a 4 pot producing 174PS@4000 and 403@2000 rpm.
clone, i live nearby the signboard. why dont u go down here n cek it out u fool.

bro, if u want something which has carlike position, carlike interior, carlike handling, just go get yourself a CAR, simple as that…
Yeap, buying a pick-up is normally for business or heavy load. If you want car-like comfort, why not buy a proper car.. lolz
That why, from my Point of View, a pick-up should have a lot of torque to push more load and better pick-up. That how pick-up name came by..

you wanna sabotage, please try harder. any person with a brain can tell you're just trying to make yourself feel better because Nissan is bringing in something more value.
don't pee on a man's leg and tell him it's raining.
Bring it on. Let Toyota and Isuzu have huge pressure from the mother of trucker. Hehehe.
Btw, extra info, next year Cergazam brings in Chevrolet Colorado pickup. Like the saying, business just got picked up.

There is no such thing places in Sabah called "kundahsang". Why you are so rude? Why you called people "fool"? don't you have manner? if you are not Sabahan no wonder you make mistake. If you are Sabahan then you will know what is right….don't you think you live for a few years here in Sabah you can say that you know a lot about this state….learn history please…..
Hey, CSV if i wanted to piss on your leg i would have used a fire hose, sounds like you need cooling down !!!!! I was just making a comment hoping someone out there has had similar problems, or is it that Nissan is paying your wages , if there not well adios mother F#@#ER
Car-like?
I used my '07 Triton mainly for work. The cargo bed is smaller than my Frontier but with a proper boot lid, the truck can carry more.
Comfort-wise, the truck is comfortable but it is still a truck and many people will spend a lot of money to make it really comfortable which is pointless.
However, Triton is a sport truck and with proper mods, it is faster in straight line acceleration. I have done 175kph from Jln Duta to Sg Buloh via NKVE a few days back. Mind you, this is a stock truck with no performance mods. I reckon the 3.2L would be faster.
haha, mother trucker…
if sell below 80k (yeah, i wish), sure others bungkus….
Navara 2.5, 174hp?? boleh tahan ka engine dia?? look the frontier, banyak gantung engine hahahaha.. go d-max!
AC, trying to promote ur UK-rejected Triton?
u ain't changing the fact that triton = sissy…
anyway, still wait for Toyota to put higher cc engine as Isuzu, Mitsubishi and Nissan do to their double-cab, and like or not, double-cabs are still 'good looking' with boxy body design instead soft-curved design like Hilux and Triton… both these trucks are 'weird' looking!
