Big And Hardy Nissan Patrol Nitrogen

Nissan Patrol ( Safari ) - a large, hardy and all-pervading supernova. For all the time of its existence, he went through many restyling and improvements, but the essence of it remained the same - a real SUV, what can I say. About all generations, their features and complete sets, you can learn from the book on repair and maintenance of Nissan Patrol / Safari car of the publishing house Monolith.
Let's talk about the seventh and brightest generation of the Nissan Patrol , which impresses with its dimensions: the length is more than five meters and the width is almost two meters.
When you sit in the salon and see such an abundance of light skin, which is trimmed even the front panel, it is difficult to imagine driving through mud and swamps. Expensive finishing and high-quality materials put Patrol on the step of more expensive SUVs, which almost always travel on the asphalt and are intended to emphasize the status of their master.
Managing such a huge machine is quite simple. An excellent overview is provided by large side mirrors. Although the rear camera is very handy, especially when maneuvering, and movement in a narrow space will facilitate the system of a circular view. Saloon mirror is almost useless, because the review is almost completely overlapping the head restraints of the second row of seats. Well, if you raise the headrests and the third row, then through the rear window is not visible. The third row of seats, even for such a large car, not for long trips of an adult. There is a lack of space for the legs, and the knees too high to raise.
Imagine that this machine is equipped with a mechanical gearbox is difficult. That's why the current Nissan Patrol is not equipped with it. But with the automatic box, this giant is going sharply and actively, especially if you transfer the seven-speed automatic to manual mode. The car accelerates to 100 km / h in 6.6 seconds. In response to, even a slight movement of the right foot, the machine is quick and easy to accelerate. This is due to the large power reserve - 405 hp. And a torque of 560 Nm. Let the tachometer at the same time show less than 2000 rpm, the main work is performed by a motor with a volume of 5.6 liters. Therefore, the car maintains high speed without straining. The truth is to remember about the consumption of fuel - 20 liters per 100 km. On the other hand, a person who has the opportunity to buy such a machine is able to feed her.
It fights well with rolls and limits the longitudinal oscillations of the body to a standard hydraulic system. Therefore, the high Patrol confidently holds and in high-speed bends. What can not be said about the people in the cabin. It's enough to enter the turn quickly and the driver with the front passenger will fall out of the side support. What can you say about the back rows, where it is generally absent.
Since the car has a powerful power steering, in the turns the steering wheel remains light and does not transmit all the sensations. The steering wheel "comes to life" on the broken and uneven areas of the asphalt, because then all the vibrations from the heavy wheels are transmitted to it. This moment reduces the level of comfort of the car, although minor irregularities, passing through the suspension and comfortable chairs only by small jolts.
Excitement in the car is small, so you want to move on it, solidly, sedately and measuredly. Moreover, when driving in the rhythm of acceleration and deceleration, the brakes are unsweetened, as evidenced by their characteristic odor. Sometimes it is necessary to significantly depress the pedal in order to brake in the right place.
Nissan Patrol rather well slows down and without the participation of the driver. To do this, you must enable active cruise control, which can reduce the speed of the car to a complete stop. Although in a city where, as a rule, low speeds are used, it is inconvenient. In this case, it is better to include a distance control system (DCA). With a dangerous rapprochement with the car in front, the Patrol begins to slow down slowly. If the driver does not react to a dangerous approach and does not drop gas, then the pedal itself goes up, pressing the leg.
The all - wheel drive well fulfills its functions and off-road, while the driver requires small. The basic equipment includes a help system for driving on the ascent and descent. It is only necessary to see what obstacles are in front of the hood and click on the appropriate button and everything is ready. With a clearance of 275 mm, large angles of crossing axles and huge suspension strokes, no deep moat or rocky road is intrepid.
Nissan Patrol - chicly equipped car, expensive, prestigious, which fit well into the premium class.
