The brand new 2026 Nissan Navara was priced $53,348 before on-road costs – $2,620 more than the equivalent version of the previous model and more than the Mitsubishi Triton on which it is based – before first customer delivery from March 1, 2026.
In a significant step up, the new-generation Navara will be available in just four model levels – all 4×4 automatic crew cab pickups – and an average price increase of $2,943. There will also be a Pro-4X off-road flagship that will be $5,865 more expensive than before.
Starting price for the 2026 Navara SL is $53,348 plus on-roads, up from $50,728 plus ORCs for the previous SL double cab 4×4 automatic, which is currently priced at $44,990 off-road.
That makes the cheapest new Navara also more expensive than the equivalent Mitsubishi Triton GLX 4×4 auto, whose list price is $51,440 plus ORCs, although Mitsubishi is currently offering drive-away deals on 2025 shares with discounts of up to $3,000.

For further comparison, the cheapest dual-cab 4×4 car pickup version of the market-leading Ford Ranger – the XL with a lower-spec 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine – costs $51,400 plus ORCs in MY26.5 trim.
Further up the stripped-down Navara range, the new ST will cost $56,765 (was $55,833), the ST-X will cost $63,177 (was $60,823 including leather upholstery) and the Pro-4X will cost $68,148 (was $62,283) – all prices exclude on-road costs (see table). below).
A replacement for the locally developed, hardcore Nissan Navara Pro-4X Warrior has yet to be revealed or priced.
While previously a one-off model, the new generation Navara is based on the current Triton, which will be launched locally in 2023 as the two Japanese automakers strive for cost efficiency in their industrial alliance with Renault.
As a result, the 2026 Navara shares its ladder frame platform, diesel powertrain and all other key components with the Triton, including its 150kW/470Nm 2.4-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine, six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive system.
Both 4×4 dual cab cars have the same combined fuel consumption of 7.7L/100km.
However, Nissan Australia says the new-generation Navara is more than just a slightly redesigned Mitsubishi, citing a longer warranty and higher levels of standard equipment to which the company attaches dollar values to justify the price premium.
But while there will soon be a range-topping Warrior, the Navara’s range is narrower than the Triton range, with four-stage 4×4 automatics and crew cabs.
Available in five trim levels, Mitsubishi offers the Triton in single, long cab and crew cab body styles with manual and automatic transmissions, as well as two- and four-wheel drive options.
For the entry-level SL model, which Nissan Australia says offers $1,300 in added value, additional equipment includes a rear differential lock, LED headlights and taillights, velor seat upholstery, digital radio (DAB+) and tailgate assist.
Nissan also points out another key difference that it believes sets the Navara apart from its rivals: each model features a unique suspension tune, calibrated for local roads by Melbourne-based engineering firm Premcar – the company responsible for the hardcore Navara Warrior and Patrol Warrior models.
The Navara ST reportedly has a $1,330 price advantage over its Triton equivalent and features LED headlights and taillights, body-color heated and power-retractable outside mirrors, leather-accented seat upholstery, carpeted flooring, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and tailgate assist.
For the ST-X, Nissan says a standard sport bar and tailgate assist are worth $1,100, while on the Pro-4X a standard trailer hitch is worth $1,200.
The Navara offers the benchmark braked towing capacity of 3,500kg and a ground clearance of 228mm – the same as the Triton – but has a slightly higher payload of up to 1,094kg compared to the Triton’s 1,083kg.
There’s also a longer warranty: both brands offer 10 years of after-sales cover subject to dealer servicing, although Nissan offers cover for up to 300,000km, compared to Mitsubishi’s 200,000km distance limit.
And Nissan’s roadside assistance extends to 10 years or 300,000km – again depending on the brand’s maintenance – compared to Mitsubishi’s offer of 10 years or 150,000km.
The Navara’s first five services are also capped at $499, which is slightly cheaper than the Triton’s variable maintenance costs, which average $527 per service over the first five visits – a total of $2,635 compared to $2,495 for the Navara.
