Today Philkotse.com will bring special spy shots of the alleged "pickup-based” SUV Nissan Terra 2018 that have not been taken in Europe, Scandinavia or China but right here, in the Philippines.
The reason why we suppose this test mule the Nissan Terra is because of the familiar shape of D-pillar that we saw in the Chinese roads. In the meantime, several Philippine-style tricycles in the foreground and a conduction sticker strengthen that it is undoubtedly being tested in the country, in Tarlac to be exact, according to Autoindustriya. Sadly, we could not have photo of the front fascia.

In actual fact, Philippines is a big place for PPVs with a large number of hot-sellers such as the Toyota Fortuner, Isuzu Mu-X, Mitsubishi Montero Sport, Ford Everest, and Chevrolet Trailblazer. As a result, the Nissan "pickup-based” SUV being road tested here truly makes a lot of sense.
At launch, the new Nissan Terra is speculated to share the 2.5-liter common rail turbo diesel engine and the 7-speed automatic transmissions with the Nissan Navara pickup. To a greater extent, it will likely borrow the Navara's signature coil spring rear suspension.
According to latest car news, the "pickup-based” SUV Nissan Terra 2018 will be revealed later this year. Stay tuned!
