Here&#8217;s a comparison of five popular petrol engines found in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Engine<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Generation<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Fuel Economy<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Fuel Consumption<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4.8L I6<\/td><td>Y61<\/td><td>5.8\u20136.0 km\/l<\/td><td>16.7\u201317.2 L\/100km<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4.0L V6<\/td><td>Y62<\/td><td>8.5 km\/l<\/td><td>11.8 L\/100km<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>5.6L V8<\/td><td>Y62<\/td><td>6.9 km\/l<\/td><td>14.5 L\/100km<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3.8L V6<\/td><td>Y63<\/td><td>9.7 km\/l<\/td><td>10.3 L\/100km<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3.5L Twin-Turbo V6<\/td><td>Y63<\/td><td>10.1 km\/l<\/td><td>9.9 L\/100km<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are published UAE-market fuel economy figures, not guaranteed real-world results. Figures vary by model, transmission and driving conditions. Older and newer vehicles may also have been tested using different procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The figures highlight how far the Patrol has progressed. For more background, explore the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/dubicars-car-spotlight-nissan-patrol-all-you-need-to-know-about-the-nissan-patrol.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">complete history of the Nissan Patrol and its generations<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-nissan-patrol-4-8l-inline-six-the-old-school-favourite\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nissan Patrol 4.8L Inline-Six: The Old-School Favourite<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 4.8-litre inline-six-cylinder engine, popularly known as the TB48DE, is closely associated with the Nissan Patrol Y61 Safari and Super Safari. It remains a favourite among UAE off-road enthusiasts thanks to its rugged construction and strong performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Later UAE-spec versions produce around 280hp and 451Nm, paired with a five-speed manual or automatic gearbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, fuel economy is not its strongest quality. The 4.8-litre engine returns approximately 5.8\u20136.0 km\/l, making it the thirstiest engine in this comparison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The older engine design, large displacement and relatively basic transmissions all contribute to its fuel consumption. Heavy off-road modifications, larger tyres and aggressive desert driving can make matters worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still, nobody buys a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/?p=19336&amp;utm_source=chatgpt.com\">Nissan Patrol Super Safari<\/a> expecting hybrid-like efficiency. Its appeal lies in its mechanical simplicity, distinctive engine character and modification potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-nissan-patrol-4-0l-v6-the-sensible-y62\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nissan Patrol 4.0L V6: The Sensible Y62<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sixth-generation Patrol Y62 introduced a more modern approach to comfort and performance. Alongside the powerful V8, buyers could choose a naturally aspirated 4.0-litre V6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Producing 275hp and 394Nm, this engine uses a seven-speed automatic gearbox and delivers a published fuel economy of approximately 8.5 km\/l.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That makes it noticeably more economical than the Y61&#8217;s 4.8-litre inline-six and the Y62&#8217;s larger V8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For everyday driving, the 4.0-litre V6 offers enough performance for school runs, motorway journeys and family outings. However, with a fully loaded cabin or during demanding off-road driving, the engine needs to work harder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its lower purchase price and fuel consumption make it an interesting option in the used market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Explore the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/nissan-patrol-trims-variants-details.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">Nissan Patrol Y62 trims and variants<\/a> to understand the available configurations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-nissan-patrol-5-6l-v8-power-comes-at-a-price\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nissan Patrol 5.6L V8: Power Comes At A Price<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Few engines are as closely associated with the modern Patrol as the 5.6-litre naturally aspirated V8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Found in the Y62&#8217;s higher variants, this engine produces 400hp and 560Nm. Its effortless acceleration, strong pulling power and unmistakable V8 soundtrack helped make it extremely popular in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fuel economy, however, stands at approximately 6.9 km\/l, equivalent to 14.5 litres per 100km.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Interestingly, the V8 is more economical on paper than the older 4.8-litre inline-six, despite producing substantially more power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its modern engine technology and seven-speed automatic transmission help explain the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, frequent acceleration, heavy traffic and desert driving can push consumption considerably higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For buyers weighing performance against fuel costs, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/nissan-patrol-y62-vs-y63-uae-comparison.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">Nissan Patrol Y62 vs Y63 comparison<\/a> explores whether the V8 is still worth buying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-nissan-patrol-3-8l-v6-the-modern-naturally-aspirated-option\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nissan Patrol 3.8L V6: The Modern Naturally Aspirated Option<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The seventh-generation Patrol Y63 replaced the older 4.0-litre V6 with a newer 3.8-litre naturally aspirated unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite its smaller displacement, it produces 316hp and 386Nm, offering considerably more horsepower than its predecessor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A nine-speed automatic transmission also improves efficiency by allowing the engine to run at lower speeds during steady motorway driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The result is a published fuel economy of approximately 9.7 km\/l.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This makes the 3.8-litre V6 one of the most economical Patrol engines available in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is particularly attractive to buyers who want the latest Patrol technology, comfort, and safety equipment without the extra performance of the twin-turbo engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a detailed breakdown, read our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/2026-nissan-patrol-trims-variants-prices-uae.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">2026 Nissan Patrol trims and variants guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-nissan-patrol-3-5l-twin-turbo-v6-more-power-less-fuel\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nissan Patrol 3.5L Twin-Turbo V6: More Power, Less Fuel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/08065207\/nissan-patrol-y62-vs-y63-which-to-buy-uae-5-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-92483\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/08065207\/nissan-patrol-y62-vs-y63-which-to-buy-uae-5-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/08065207\/nissan-patrol-y62-vs-y63-which-to-buy-uae-5-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/08065207\/nissan-patrol-y62-vs-y63-which-to-buy-uae-5-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/08065207\/nissan-patrol-y62-vs-y63-which-to-buy-uae-5-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/08065207\/nissan-patrol-y62-vs-y63-which-to-buy-uae-5.webp 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest surprise comes from the latest Patrol&#8217;s 3.5-litre twin-turbocharged V6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Replacing the 5.6-litre V8, this engine produces an impressive 425hp and 700Nm, making it considerably more powerful than the outgoing unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the performance increase, the twin-turbo V6 delivers approximately 10.1 km\/l.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This makes it the most fuel-efficient engine in our comparison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its twin turbochargers, modern fuel injection system and nine-speed automatic transmission help deliver strong performance without requiring a larger engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the advantage depends heavily on driving style. Frequent hard acceleration brings the turbochargers into action and increases fuel consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This also explains <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/do-smaller-car-engines-save-fuel.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">why smaller engines do not always consume less fuel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-much-fuel-does-each-nissan-patrol-consume-annually\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Much Fuel Does Each Nissan Patrol Consume Annually?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fuel economy figures become more meaningful when translated into annual fuel consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Assuming an owner drives 20,000km annually, here is approximately how much petrol each engine would consume based on the published figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Patrol Engine<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Estimated Petrol Used Per Year<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4.8L I6<\/td><td>3,333\u20133,448 litres<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4.0L V6<\/td><td>2,353 litres<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>5.6L V8<\/td><td>2,899 litres<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3.8L V6<\/td><td>2,062 litres<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3.5L Twin-Turbo V6<\/td><td>1,980 litres<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The difference is substantial. Compared with the Y62 V8, the latest twin-turbo V6 could save approximately 920 litres of petrol over 20,000km, based on these figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Actual savings will depend on your driving conditions and fuel prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a broader picture of expenses, check our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/nissan-patrol-ownership-cost-uae.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">Nissan Patrol ownership cost guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-does-better-fuel-economy-mean-more-driving-range\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Does Better Fuel Economy Mean More Driving Range?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not necessarily. Fuel tank capacity plays an equally important role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Y62 Patrol has a large 140-litre fuel tank, while the latest Y63 comes with a smaller 97-litre tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means an older Patrol can sometimes cover more distance between refuelling stops despite consuming more petrol per kilometre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On paper, the Y62 V8 and Y63 twin-turbo V6 offer roughly similar theoretical driving ranges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, these calculations assume ideal conditions and the use of the entire fuel tank. Actual driving range will generally be lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-what-affects-nissan-patrol-fuel-economy-in-the-uae\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Affects Nissan Patrol Fuel Economy In The UAE?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regardless of engine choice, several factors can significantly change fuel consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>City traffic: Frequent stops and acceleration increase petrol consumption.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Air conditioning: Constant cooling during UAE summers adds engine load.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Desert driving: Soft sand, low tyre pressures and demanding terrain require more power.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vehicle modifications: Larger tyres, roof racks and added weight can reduce efficiency.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Driving habits: Smooth acceleration and steady motorway speeds generally improve mileage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maintenance: Proper tyre pressure, clean filters and timely servicing help maintain efficiency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When shopping for an older model, follow our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/used-nissan-patrol-buying-guide-uae.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">used Nissan Patrol buying guide<\/a> to identify potential mechanical problems and signs of heavy off-road use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-which-nissan-patrol-engine-should-you-choose\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Which Nissan Patrol Engine Should You Choose?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ideal Patrol engine depends on how you plan to use the SUV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 4.8-litre inline-six remains a favourite for enthusiasts who value old-school off-road capability. The Y62&#8217;s 4.0-litre V6 is a more economical alternative for everyday driving, while the 5.6-litre V8 delivers the performance and character that made the Patrol famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new 3.8-litre V6 offers a strong balance of modern technology and lower fuel consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 is the clear winner for published fuel efficiency, combining the highest standard engine output in this comparison with the lowest fuel consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ultimately, the Patrol has evolved from a rugged, fuel-hungry off-roader into a more refined and efficient SUV without losing its adventurous character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Explore <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/new-cars\/nissan\/patrol?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">new Nissan Patrol SUVs for sale in the UAE<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/used\/nissan\/patrol?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">used Nissan Patrol listings<\/a> on DubiCars to find the version that suits your driving needs and budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/uae\/used\">Whatever car you\u2019re thinking of, find it on Dubi<\/a> with over 25,000 listings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stay tuned to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/\">UAE\u2019s most popular auto blog<\/a> for more automotive content.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-faqs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1793882608656\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Which Nissan Patrol engine has the best fuel economy?<\/h3><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 is the most fuel-efficient Nissan Patrol engine, delivering approximately 10.1 km\/l while producing 425hp and 700Nm.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1793882624736\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>What is the fuel consumption of the Nissan Patrol V8?<\/h3><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The Nissan Patrol Y62&#8217;s 5.6-litre V8 delivers about 6.9 km\/l, or 14.5 litres per 100km, depending on driving conditions.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1793882634409\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Is the Nissan Patrol V6 more fuel-efficient than the V8?<\/h3><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes.
