From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Nissan has announced a series of mid-life revisions for its Navara pick-up and Pathfinder SUV. In addition to some cosmetic updates, the cars’ existing 2.5 litre dCi diesel engine enjoys an 11 per cent boost in both power (now 190 horsepower) and torque (now 450Nm), and is joined by a new 231 horsepower 3.0 litre V6 diesel, designated V9X, which also finds its way into three models produced by Nissan’s luxury brand, Infiniti.
The improvements should help the Pathfinder close the refinement gap with its most obvious competitor, Land Rover's Discovery, which has a smooth V6 diesel that was revamped and increased in capacity from 2.7 to 3.0 litres last year.
