For us in Europe there is still only the Nismo Juke (SUV`s not Sports Models) available and there have been questions on a possible QQ Nismo being introduced also which seems to now have been knocked on the head. But it looks like where the money is new models do get introduced – lucky them but the Patrol design is a still a little bit Boxy – Dave ;)

Nissan's performance division has worked its magic on a variety of vehicles. But not all of them have been based on sports cars, and not all of them have been made available in the UK or USA. Its latest model is neither. It is being launched exclusively in the United Arab Emirates for the time being.
In launching the Nismo sub-brand in the Dubai, Nissan has started with a decidedly different model in the Nissan Patrol Nismo. It's based on the SUV that is better known as the Infiniti QX80, but instead of taking an off-road or luxury approach, the Nissan Patrol Nismo (as you might have guessed) goes for on-road performance. To that end, the performance division has given it a thorough workover.
The 5.6-liter V8 engine for starters, has been tuned by Nissan's Takumi craftsmen up from 400 horsepower to 428. The suspension has been firmed up with Bilstein shocks and mounted with 22-inch forged alloys from Rays. The power steering system has tuned by Nismo for sportier handling. The bodywork has been upgraded for an aggressive look and zero aerodynamic lift. And the interior has been refitted to make it a more suitable environment from which to command the added performance capabilities.
