After a new Nissan, but not sure how long you'll have to wait?
Issues such as semiconductor chip shortages, shipping problems and sickness and isolation have affected the ability of manufacturers like Nissan to keep their production lines going over the last three years.
As such, all of the brand’s models are currently experiencing some delays.
However, some models are in greater supply than others, with flexibility around powertrains, specification and vehicle colour likely to see a vehicle in your driveway sooner.
Overall, according to Price My Car, the average wait time for a Nissan is now 129 days – compared to 123 days in January 2022.
The brand’s local arm has just finalised a major product onslaught, with new generations of the Qashqai, X-Trail and Pathfinder now available in Australia.
Interested buyers should speak to their local dealer for information on orders and approximate wait times. This article will be updated when further information becomes available in the coming months.
Meanwhile, the Navara ute and Patrol upper-large SUV face an average wait time of 181 days and 161 days, respectively.

A spokesperson for Nissan Australia said it has available stock of all models, except Patrol, but that wait times depend on factors such as variant and location.
"The all-new X-Trail, Qashqai and Pathfinder vehicles are currently arriving at dealerships around the country along with Navara, Juke and Leaf."
"There is up to a 4-6 month wait for delivery of a new Nissan Patrol. The wait time is dependent upon the model specification, delivery location and of course support from our global production plants and suppliers."
Like other brands, it encourages customers to contact dealers for more information.
"Wait times are a result of a number of factors including specification, variant and location. We would encourage all customers to speak with their nearest dealer for an estimate of exact arrival times for their vehicle."
A more accessible version of the Navara Warrior, based on the SL grade, has launched in Australia, with fewer components required compared to the range-topping PRO-4X Warrior.
With all of the above in mind, it is important to consider this article a guide only.
