Based on the top model GSR the Triton Raider adds both functional and cosmetic appeal.

This is achieved by implementing a unique front and rear suspension damper package.

With the front damper utilising an internal rebound spring to maximise suspension control, was developed for Raider. A front spring and bump stop was also deployed.

There is also an upgraded frontal bash plate that is laser cut with Raider wording.

Premcar engineering team selected the Bridgestone AT002 all-terrain tyres, matched to a heavier-duty ROH ‘Assault’ 18-inch alloy wheel. These wheels are finished in a distinctive Brushed Bronze with specific ‘Raider’ hub caps.

Overall front clearance has increased by 25 mm from the combination suspension and wheel and tyres. The rear sees a 15mm lift from the wheels and tyres.

Overall wheel track has also widened by 20mm front and back.

The YAMAHA Performance Damper system which debuted in the 26MY Triton GSR is retained. This horizontally-mounted damper connects to the chassis to further enhance NVH performance.

There are some other cosmetic exterior additions to enhance the appeal.

Inside, the Triton Raider enjoys all the key equipment found in the top-spec GSR.

The black leather seats feature orange stitching, with the addition of Raider branded front headrests and a further Raider badge fitted to the centre console.

Available by mid-June in dealer showrooms, the Triton Raider will be priced from $74,990 plus the usual costs.

Now this program will see the Navara PRO-4X Warrior launch in South Africa in late April 2025, as part of a collaboration with Nissan South Africa.

The Warrior program has now grown to cover three vehicles.

• Navara SL Warrior,
• Navara PRO-4X Warrior, and
• the bi-modal exhaust-equipped Patrol Warrior.

To date, manufacturers have enhanced in excess of 12,000 Warrior models across Australia.

Premcar has made a number of significant changes to the South African-market Nissan Navara PRO-4X to create this new Warrior hero version. One of the most significant changes we made was retuning the suspension for the South African conditions.

When the doors finally closed on Australian motor car manufacturing a few years ago, things looked bleak for local talent.

Now, however there are a number of remanufacturing outfits that are successfully navigating local conditions in conjunction with major automotive brands. A lot of vehicle improvements like the Warrior as well as LHD to RHD conversions for American Pickup trucks.

There are three 4WDs in the series. The Navara SL Warrior, which is aimed more at the work Ute market and rugged off-road work.

The Navara Pro 4X Warrior, which is the upmarket dual Cab Ute with lots of bells and whistles.

Finally, there is the Patrol Warrior. This is based on the Ti version with lots of additional features.

What Premcar do, and its quite clever, is they take the existing vehicle and add capability for both on road and off-road situations.

That’s difficult, as mostly to improve one, the other suffers. And it’s usually the on-road ride and handling that suffers. Not so with the Warrior series by Premcar.

I toured their facilities in Epping Victoria, and they were first class. Spotlessly clean, efficient and they take their obligations to their workers above and beyond.

The key to the Warrior vehicles isn’t so much what they do, more how effortlessly and composed they do it.

They are definitely worth a drive
