Car Detail

The Nissan X-Trail is a compact five-seater that blends tough 4x4 capability with comfort, practicality and intelligent technology such as All Mode 4x4-i, which is a sophisticated four-wheel drive system.

The well-appointed cabin affords a good view, aided by the car’s raised ride height and the vehicle is exceptionally solidly built. A pliant ride quality, tidy handling and strong engines endow the Nissan X-Trail with satisfying road manners. It’s also an accomplished performer away from tarmac.

As well as refinement, the Nissan X-Trail is noted for its smart looks, safety, practical cabin design and large boot. It also has a strong reputation for reliability.

The Nissan X-Trail has five doors for easy access to its well-equipped five-seat cabin and very large 603-litre boot. The 60:40 split rear seats can be folded flat to create a 1012-litre load space if required.

Trim level has been simplified, the Acenta and the Tekna.

All Nissan X-Trails have power steering, front and rear electric windows, climate control, a CD sound system with Bluetooth compatibility, remote central locking, alarm, alloy wheels and roof rails, MP3 auxilliary socket.  18 inch alloy wheels and a Bose audio system is also available on the Tekna.  ‘Scratch Shield’ paint is available on selected colours.

The Nissan X-Trail offers plenty of real-world safety, including the ability to switch to surefooted four-wheel drive when conditions demand it. ABS anti-lock brakes, EBD (electronic brakeforce distribution) and Brake Assist also feature across the entire range. ESP stability control is fitted to every diesel and 2.5 petrol model.

Driver, passenger, side and curtain airbags are standard on all X-Trails, along with anti-whiplash active front head restraints, three-point seatbelts for all five occupants and ISOFIX child seat anchoring points in the rear. To back up the thorough safety provision there is the reassurance of a four-star EuroNCAP crash test rating.

Emissions are competitive within its class. When fitted with manual transmission, 2.0 dCi 173 diesel variants emit 190g/km of CO2.

All Nissan X-Trails have four-wheel drive and most use the All Mode 4x4-i system. This sophisticated set-up includes DDS (downhill drive support) to help control the car’s pace when descending slopes at slow speed as well as USS (uphill start support) to ensure smooth uphill getaways without any rolling back. All Mode 4x4i can even predict when a loss in traction is likely to occur.

A rotary dial in the cockpit allows the driver to select ‘2WD’ (two-wheel drive), ‘Auto’ (which prompts the Nissan X-Trail to apportion drive automatically to all four wheels according to the prevailing conditions) and ‘Lock’ (for tough terrain).

The diesel engines use 2.0-litre turbocharged engines tuned to deliver 150bhp and 173bhp. The dCi 150, which can be specified with a six-speed automatic gearbox, generates 320Nm of pull. In manual guise, this version combines 117mph performance and 39.8mpg economy. The dCi 173 can call upon 360Nm of pulling power to endow it with 124mph performance and average fuel economy of 38.2mpg.

Nissan X-trail ownership starts from £23,655 for the Acenta dci 173 bhp.  The Tekna starts from £26,855, rising to £29,180 for the top of the range Tekna automatic.
