Nissan NP300 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2008–2015) — First Generation
The first-generation Nissan NP300 is a workhorse pickup offered in double-cab, single-cab and 1.5-cab bodies, built around durability, payload capacity and straightforward mechanicals rather than showroom polish.
The Nissan NP300 engine line centres on a 2.5-litre turbodiesel, seen here in 2.5 MT form with a manual gearbox and all-wheel drive across the double-cab, single-cab and 1.5-cab bodies. That powertrain favours low-rev pulling power for towing and loaded work, while the selectable drivetrain helps on mud, gravel and building sites.

Nissan NP300 trim levels sit on top of the mechanical package rather than changing it: the 2.5 MT double-cab, for example, appears as Base and Comfort. Base versions concentrate on the essentials for fleet and site use, while Comfort typically adds cabin conveniences that matter on longer drives. Body choice also shapes the seating and cargo balance.
