Armada Mountain Patrol design finalised

Nissan has revealed the finished Armada Mountain Patrol, a one-off overlanding vehicle that was devised with assistance from the brand’s Facebook and Instagram fans.

The most obvious additions are the four-berth Cascadia Mt. Shasta roof tent and a bespoke awning. A Dometic fridge-freezer, Otterbox Venture coolers, Pelican cases and an ARB pull-out drawer system are among the other items of camping gear.

Enhanced rough-terrain abilities are promised thanks to an Icon Vehicle Dynamics suspension set-up and Icon Rebound 17” wheels shod with Nitto Ridge Grappler tyres. The modifications list also includes a Magnaflow cat-back exhaust, a Warn Platinum Series winch and lots of auxiliary LED lights.

For extra protection, Calmini rock sliders and some custom-made steel bumpers have been fitted too. A unique body wrap completes the transformation.

The Armada Mountain Patrol is due to make its public début at this weekend’s Overland Expo West event in Flagstaff, Arizona.

Performance might not be scintillating - the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint takes 12.5 seconds and maximum speed is 108 mph (173 km/h) - but the TwinAir’s trump card is efficiency. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
