Manhart’s Nissan Patrol Celebrates Middle East Launch With Arresting Color Scheme And 641 HP

In order to celebrate its expansion in the Middle East, Manhart previewed a modified Nissan Patrol, which is one of the most popular SUVs in the region alongside the rival Toyota Land Cruiser. Based on the Nismo variant, the Manhart PT 650 comes with a gold livery, 24-inch wheels, and an increased power of 641 hp thanks to a supercharged V8.

The Nissan Patrol Nismo is already equipped with an aggressive bodykit that includes large intakes, a front splitter, a rear wing, and a massive diffuser. Thus, Manhart didn’t feel the need to add extra parts, besides a new set of gold-finished alloy wheels measuring an impressive 24-inches in diameter. Also, the tuner added its signature decal set with gold accents combined with a black shade and dark-finished trim elements.

A similar theme was selected for the interior, with leather and Alcantara finished in black and gold. This treatment has been applied to the reupholstered front and rear seats, the central armrest, and the door panels, contrasting the carbon-fiber and glossy black accents of the dashboard.

More important updates are hidden under the bonnet. The naturally-aspirated 5.6-liter V8 of the Patrol Nismo received a supercharger kit, increasing the power output from the stock 428 hp (319 kW / 434 PS) to a more appropriate 641 hp (478 kW / 650 PS). Torque has also been increased from 560 Nm (413 lb-ft) to 600 Nm (443 lb-ft). The power boost is combined with a cat-back exhaust featuring a 200-cell sport catalytic converter and producing a deeper sound. Manhart didn’t tweak the suspension, since the Patrol Nismo was already equipped with specially tuned Bilstein shocks right from the factory.

As you may have noticed, the Manhart PT 650 was showcased in the form of renderings, previewing the tuner’s offering for Middle Eastern customers. Manhart is currently accepting orders for similar builds through its official website or its dealers.
