Nissan is proud to announce the release of the special edition 2024 Patrol Super Safari, aptly named 'Al Ostoura,' meaning 'The Legend' in Arabic. This exclusive model pays homage to the iconic SUV's remarkable heritage and its profound connection to the people of the GCC region.
The Patrol Super Safari, fondly known as the "VTC," traces its roots back to the fifth-generation Nissan Patrol, initially manufactured from 1997 to 2010. Renowned for its exceptional off-road capabilities and unmatched power, it quickly became a favorite among off-road enthusiasts and adventurers across the Gulf. Responding to the enduring demand for this model, Nissan reintroduced it in 2016 as the Patrol Super Safari, and it has since remained a symbol of rugged performance and reliability in the region.
The 2024 Al Ostoura edition represents the culmination of the fifth-generation Patrol's legacy, boasting a range of exterior and interior design upgrades inspired by the desert landscape of the region. Special badges adorned with 'Al Ostoura since 1951' in Arabic calligraphy grace the SUV's rear pillar and engine, alongside its iconic silhouette.
Drawing inspiration from the Arabian desert, the Al Ostoura edition showcases a recurring design motif, prominently featured on the spare tire cover, fender garnish, center console badge, and floor mats. The rich color palette, available in two exterior schemes, is accentuated by 17-inch alloy wheels, distinctive body stickers, and contrasting exterior inserts on the roof, bumpers, and wheel arches.
Thierry Sabbagh, President of Nissan Saudi Arabia and Managing Director of Nissan Middle East, remarked, "The Patrol holds a special place in the hearts of Nissan enthusiasts across the Middle East. The enduring legacy of the Patrol Super Safari resonates deeply with our loyal customers, embodying both exceptional performance and cherished memories. The 'Al Ostoura' special edition pays tribute to this enduring bond and serves as a token of appreciation to the people of our region."
Under the hood, the 2024 Patrol Super Safari Al Ostoura is propelled by a robust 4.8-liter in-line six-cylinder engine, delivering an impressive 280 horsepower and 451 Nm of torque. Equipped with Valve Timing Control (VTC) and Nissan Induction Control System (NICS), it ensures unparalleled off-road performance and remarkable speed on the highway. Power is seamlessly transmitted through a 5-speed automatic or manual transmission.
In addition to its robust performance, the 'Al Ostoura' edition boasts an array of safety features, including electronically controlled power steering, cruise control, a tire pressure monitoring system, ABS, dual-front SRS airbags, and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC), ensuring a safe and connected driving experience both on and off the road.
The 2024 Nissan Patrol Super Safari Al Ostoura is now available through Nissan's extensive partner network across the Gulf region, offering enthusiasts the opportunity to experience the unparalleled heritage and performance of this iconic SUV. Joining the esteemed Patrol lineup, including the Patrol and the race-inspired Patrol NISMO models, the 'Al Ostoura' edition continues the legacy of Nissan's legendary off-road prowess.
