In October 1958, the 4W65 Patrol replaced the 4W61. The grille badge was chrome and red and said "NISSAN". The 4W61 was powered by the new 3.7 L Nissan NB engine, producing 92 PS (68 kW), and later was powered by the 105 PS (77 kW) 4.0 L Nissan NC engine. The 4W61 was introduced in August 1955 it changed the grille (with some chrome bars), a one-piece windshield that sits further back when folded, chrome strips on the hood, and unequally sized seats (passenger's side is wider than the driver's). A 4W70 Carrier-based wagon was available. The grille had a pressed-steel Nissan badge.

The 4W60 used the 75 PS (55 kW) 3.7 L Nissan NAK engine from the Nissan 290 bus, but with part-time four-wheel drive and a four-speed manual transmission. The overall styling was similar to the Willys Jeep. In September 1951, the 4W60 was introduced exclusively to Japanese Nissan dealerships. The Y60 and Y61 Patrols were the main troop-transport vehicles used by the Irish Army. Y61 models are produced alongside the current Y62. Various versions of the Patrol are widely used by United Nations agencies. The Y61 platform is manufactured as a military vehicle in countries of Asia and the Middle East. For the 2011 model year, it was made available in North America as the upscale Infiniti QX56 (later renamed as Infiniti QX80), the first time that a Patrol-based vehicle had been sold in North America since 1969, and for the 2017 model year, it would be offered in that market as the Nissan Armada.

The Patrol is available in Australia, Central and South America, South Africa, parts of Southeast Asia, and Western Europe, as well as Iran and the Middle East. In 1980 in Japan, it was rebadged and alternately sold at Nissan Prince Store locations as the Nissan Safari. In some European countries, such as Spain, the Patrol was marketed by Ebro as the Ebro Patrol. Between 19, Ford Australia marketed the Patrol as the Ford Maverick. The LWB version has been offered in pickup truck and cab chassis variants. The Patrol has been available as either a short-wheelbase (SWB) three-door or a long-wheelbase (LWB) five-door chassis since 1951. The Nissan Patrol (Japanese: 日産・パトロール Nissan Patorōru) is a series of four-wheel drive vehicles manufactured by Nissan in Japan and sold throughout the world.
