• Pros & Cons

  Pros	Nissan X-Trail 1.5L 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine is one of the most refined 3-cylinder engine, which can outperform several bigger powertrains. The X-Trail is a mechanically sorted vehicle that is definitely over-engineered to provide a class-apart experience. The X-Trail is a strikingly beautiful SUV that, despite being a Japanese vehicle, resembles a European one. This SUV has a great road presence, and in public, it will definitely get a lot of attention. Despite being a 3-row, full-size SUV, the X-Trail achieves a mileage of 13.7 kmpl (ARAI), which is impressive considering its enormous size. One of the best CVT gearboxes available in the market, it shifts quickly and doesn’t have the typical rubber-band effect that CVTs are known for. Features like panoramic sunroof, 9 Inch infotainment display, dual zone climate control, three-driving modes, 12 Inch driver’s display, does elevate its rich experience. The only vehicle with 20-inch alloy wheels as standard, which surprisingly doesn’t hinder ride comfort. 585 liters of boot space with the third row folded, which is enough for all your luggage.	Goes like a bullet. 0 to 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds. It hits 267 km/h in just 5th gear. Equipped with electronic front differential lock. Spacious 5 seater with 380L of boot space that expands upto 1237L. Level 2 ADAS with 20 autonomous features. Driver focused cabin. Twin chrome exhausts create a beautiful symphony of sound that’s pleasing to the ears.
  Cons	Nissan X-Trail is a great SUV, but still, the Rs 49.92 lakh ex-showroom price isn’t justifiable, which is the paramount reason why it doesn’t sell enough. Despite costing above Rs 50 lakh, X-Trail doesn’t offer ADAS, powered front seats, ventilated front seats, leather interior and powered tail gate. A CBU unit means its parts won’t be easily available, and a local mechanic won’t be able to fix it if anything goes wrong. Its 1.5L engine produces 163 PS and 300 Nm of torque, but the same power specifications are also available in cars priced around Rs 20 lakh. The X-Trail is not an out-and-out 7-seater; it is a 5+2 seater, which means the third-row seats are only suitable for children. The X-Trail offers only one engine, which is disappointing for diesel lovers. A hybrid option could have been offered for better fuel efficiency. There’s no AWD on offer, and the X-Trail is FWD, so its off-roading capabilities are limited.	Available in single variant. Misses on manual gearbox. Being a CBU and that too with limited units. The front seats are great for spirited driving but don’t offer adjustability. VW offers heated but not cooled seats - something more essential for a country like India.
