Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM) is introducing two new additions to its light commercial vehicle line-up in the shape of the all-new Nissan NV200 Vanette and Navara Single Cab 4×2.

Versatility is elevated to a new level with the Nissan Navara Single Cab. Based on the robust Navara underpinnings and powered by the most powerful common rail diesel engine in its class, the Navara Single Cab 4×2 is the ideal platform for businesses to leverage on. The Navara Single Cab 2.5-litre Common Rail Diesel Engine with turbo intercooler delivers a commendable output of 144PS and 294Nm, complemented by a smooth 5-speed manual transmission for the best combination of power and fuel economy.

Commercial users can choose from three body designs (Luton, Steel or Wooden body configurations) to suit their specific business needs. Each of the body design is built on a double-layered, high-tensile metal frame chassis reinforced with a maximum payload of 750kg.
While the Navara Single Cab is designed to handle heavy loads, its driver is well isolated from the elements in the cabin. Large comfortable seating, air-conditioning system and a standard 1CD/radio audio head unit ensure that this work horse offers good comfort for the driver.
Like other Navara variants, the Single Cab comes with the well-proven independent double-wishbone front suspension and a rigid rear axle with semi elliptic leaf spring. Additionally, its Zone Body Construction offers additional durability and rigidity.
The safety equipment list includes side-impact beams, collapsible steering wheel column, and a load sensing brake system that evenly distributes brake pressure to rear wheels for optimal stopping performance. Front disc brakes are also standard fitment.
The selling prices for the Navara Single Cab start from RM64,391.55; excluding road tax, insurance and registration related charges. The vehicles comes with a 3-year or 100,000km warranty whichever comes first.
