As the sixth generation of the Nissan Patrol (related to the recently renamed Infiniti QX80 which was previously known as the QX) approaches its fourth year in the market, it’s only to reasonable to expect that the Japanese company prepares some updates to keep consumer interest high in its flagship SUV.

A member of the Nissan Arabia forums scooped these photos of what appears to be next year’s updated version of the Patrol loaded on a transport truck in Dubai.

We only see the parts of the profile and rear end of the large SUV, in which we detected newly designed tail lamps, alloy wheels and possibly side trims.

If this is indeed the lightly revised Patrol, we wouldn’t be surprised if Nissan unveils the car at next week’s Dubai Motor Show (November 5 to 9).

We tip our hats to Saif for the heads up!
