The Nissan NP300 has a range of fuel consumption figures depending on the model, engine, and driving conditions. For the NP300 Navara Tekna dCi 2016 manual, the official combined fuel consumption is 44.1 MPG (UK), which is approximately 6.4 litres/100km. The automatic version averages slightly less at 40.4 MPG (UK) or 7 litres/100km[1]. Real-world tests suggest observed averages of about 35.1 MPG (UK) under mixed driving conditions[4].
In markets where the NP300 is known as the “Hardbody” (such as South Africa), common figures include:
- 2.0L Petrol & Base S/Cab: 12 l/100 km (8.33 km/litre)
- 2.5 TDI Diesel S/Cab: 9.6 l/100 km (10.42 km/litre)[2]
For the popular 2.5 dCi diesel Single Cab variant (133 hp, manual), average combined consumption is typically listed at 8.4 – 9.1 l/100km (about 28–31 mpg UK), with extra-urban (highway) values as efficient as 8.2 l/100km (34.45 mpg UK)[3][5]. According to user-reported data, highway cruising can even approach 7–7.5 l/100km[8].
The NP300 Frontier, another regional name for the model, shows an average of 21–23 mpg (US) based on owner reports (about 25–28 mpg UK or 9–10 l/100km), with newer models trending towards the lower end due to weight and emissions changes[7].
For the latest generation, Nissan reports fuel economy improvements of up to 11% over prior models, supported by new engine and transmission options[6].
