This is from wikipedia.

The Terra had been planned to be launched in 2016, however several constraints in its development delayed its launch. In 2015, segment competitors including Toyota Fortuner, Mitsubishi Pajero Sport, and Ford Everest had their new generation launched, which delayed the development in order to evaluate and improve the details of the Terra to be able to compete. The development was also constrained by a new excise tax structure based on emissions introduced by the Thai government, which forced Nissan to engineer the cleaner YS23DDTT diesel engine to the Terra. As a result, the Terra release was delayed by two years.[8] The official details of the vehicle were eventually revealed in 15 March 2018 and was unveiled in the following month.
Makes sense, the Terra actually felt a generation old when it was first launched. Interior looked super dated, and powertrain is sluggish relative to its output.

Nissan PH needs Triton/Montero to be a homerun to survive imo. They can't keep relying on the outdated Navara and Terra which are only popular locally but nowhere else in SEA.
