MANILA, Philippines — Nissan Philippines brought its 4x4 lineup to the forefront in the latest leg of Drive Pinas, taking the Patrol, Navara, and Terra on a two-day journey across highways, coastal roads, and challenging terrain.

The drive started in Metro Manila and made its way to Subic, with a brief stop for lunch. Along the expressways, the vehicles delivered a smooth driving experience, allowing the group to travel comfortably while showcasing their steady performance during long-distance driving.

The journey then continued to Bataan, where participants navigated areas rich in cultural and historical heritage, including Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar, which provided a scenic backdrop that complemented the vehicles' design and rugged performance. A dedicated off-road portion then followed and allowed the Patrol, Navara, and Terra to tackle loose soil, uneven paths, and rough outdoor conditions. However, each model demonstrated control, traction, and comfort, showing what Nissan 4x4s can handle even in tough environments.

"Drive Pinas has always been about exploring what our vehicles can do while enjoying the beauty of the country," said Nissan Philippines President Masao Tsutsumi. "This leg showed just how capable our 4x4s are, with the same toughness that runs through Nissan as a brand. It reflects how we continue to build vehicles people can continue to trust for years to come."
