In 2000, Nissan upgraded the Terrano's second generation, continuing the production of its European-oriented SUV, while its partner Ford pulled the plug on the Maverick.
Creating a common vehicle was a good idea for both automakers. Still, the Japanese brand was more successful than its blue-oval partner. Both vehicles were produced in Nissan's factory in Barcelona in 1993, but immediately customers started to ask for the Terrano II more than for the Maverick. By 1999, it was obvious to the American brand that its vehicle struggled to keep up with the sales. Since in 2000, the Euro 3 came into force, Ford considered that it didn't worth it to continue and stopped the production.
The 2000 model featured a new front fascia with a smiling chromed grille. Nissan also added new headlights, sporting a design inspired by Terrano's bigger brother, the Patrol. In addition, the bumper was also reshaped but still sported unpainted areas to not get affected by shopping carts or bushes. From its profile, the five-door SUV featured plastic panels and molds on the wheel arches that provided protection for the said situations.
Inside, the Japanese automaker installed a new, multi-function steering wheel carried over from the Primera. Thus, the driver could've adjusted the sound system's volume without lifting their hands from the wheel. Moreover, since the vehicle was built on a long wheelbase chassis, those seated in the back had enough legroom. In addition, the automaker offered a set of side steps that eased the ingress and egress of the vehicle.
Due to the new catalytic converter, the new gasoline engine lost one horsepower compared to the Euro 2 Terrano. In addition, the automaker kept the turbo-diesel powerplant on its offer. Both versions featured standard with five-speed manuals and a low-range transfer case.
