Good review, helps me a lot as looking to change my tow car and the X trail was a contender.

Some people are fussy, I have just purchased a 1.7 dci awd x trail to tow a Bailey phoenix 640 plus, 1257 miro and ours is around 1350 on the road. I was towing this caravan with a renault kadjar 1.3 tce fwd and it was coping fine with only 138hp and 177 lbs ft.

Just as a point of reference - the X-Trail besting the Kodiaq and absolutely destroying the Kia Sorento in the moose and handling test:

He tested a lot hevier caravan with the 1.6dci xtrail.. think 1440kg and it has 130 bhp and yet on a 2.0 dci with 177bhp he does a tow test with 1200kg caravan??
how is that a like for like test.. keep it consistant guys.

I have an X-Trail 2020 and very Happy with it, i did fit a queen size bed unassembled of course inside of it and it did close the lid, i dare you to do that in a sorento

Haha, this is laughable. Did you get a "check" from the guys at Kia? Seems like every negative the X-trail has the Kia surprisingly has a fix for it!
