^^ Thank you antp.

The [D22] Navara for EU at least was only built in Thailand or Japan. The [D22] was never built in Spain. The [D40] began Spanish built models and there were a few instances were Japanese models were intermixed (two crisis in Thailand the 2012 Floods and some type of crisis in 2008).

Done

Maybe antp could move? My apologies.

This thread might be more useful in the "Naming convetions" area of the forum, IMHO.

Quick update for the NA market. I am changing the 2001-2004 Frontiers as the 2002 press release shows us the Crew Cab Long Bed debuted for that year:

https://usa.nissannews.com/en-US/releases/release-96674eda1fe745de8e2b4acac5181df3-2002-nissan-frontier-press-kit-3

Following the 2001 Frontier’s dramatic restyling and addition of the first available factory-installed supercharged V6 in the compact truck class, the 2002 model adds two new major enhancements – a completely upgraded interior with an available Rockford Fosgate?-powered audio system (Crew Cab only) and the Frontier Crew Cab Long Bed, with the longest bed in the compact crew cab truck class. The new 2002 Frontier lineup goes on sale at Nissan retailers nationwide in early August.

Two screenshots from Nissan Colombia website in 2012 and 2013, thanks to the wayback machine:

Some links for Brazil.

Few Brazilian sources say this face lift debuted in 2002 for the 2003 MY.

Debuted at the October 2002 show as a 2003 line: http://falando-sobre-carros.blogspot.com/2014/04/plataforma-d22-nissan-frontier-o.html

Also, here are some information about South African built NP300/Hardbody:

These were the versions sold in Italy:

The nomenclature seems to be, Pickup - cab style - trim level (eventually Navara), so Navara doesn't seem to be used as a model name for this generation here, unlike the following [D40]. Also, I think EU models were all built by Nissan Motor Iberica in Barcelona

Seems Mexico used both NP300 and Frontier. Former seems to be commercial version while latter is civilian version.


In 2011, using thewaybackmachine, both names are used. You need to click on vehiculos and then you can select comerciales or SUVs/Pick-Up’s.
