Central to X-Trail's appeal over the previous three generations has been its distinctive styling which projects a reassuring sense of solidity and robustness, without being aggressive.

Both the exterior and interior of the new X-Trail reflect the spirit of the vehicle – versatile and adventurous. The exterior is highlighted by signature Nissan design elements such as the floating roof and V-motion grille. The frontal aspect is framed by striking headlights that appear moulded within the bodywork of the front bumper, with combined daytime running lights and indicators nestled along the shut-line of the hood.

From the side, muscular wheel arches at the front and rear give the X-Trail presence on the road, while at the base of the doors, an inset feature brings a sense of fluidity to the sheer surfaces of the doors.

The shape of the C-pillar is reminiscent of a dolphin fin, bringing tension to the rear where the wrap-around lights complete the rear three-quarter aspect.

From behind, a taught horizontal line sits just above and below where the number plate is mounted, while split rear lights ensure a wide aperture for the trunk. A silver panel curves under the rear bumper, reflecting X-Trail's adventurous character.

The new X-Trail will be the second model in Nissan's European range to be equipped with the brand's innovative e‑POWER drive system. Exclusive to Nissan, the e-POWER system is a unique approach to electrification, offering the EV-drive feeling without the need to recharge.

First introduced in Japan on the Note in 2017, it went on to become the best-selling car, with customers loving its combination of smooth, effortless performance and cable-free ownership.

The new X-Trail's e-POWER system is comprised of a high-output battery and powertrain integrated with a variable compression ratio petrol engine, power generator, inverter and 150kW front electric motor. This unique powertrain means that power to the wheels comes only from an electric motor, which results in instant, linear response to the accelerator.

To meet the typical demands of European consumers and their daily drive, the e-POWER installation has been significantly upgraded for the new X-Trail. The application in the Japanese Note featured a 1.2 petrol engine charging the battery unit, with a final power output of 106hp. For Europe it has been upgraded to a 1.5-litre Variable Compression Ratio turbo petrol engine, with a final system power output of 150kW (204PS).

The unique element of e-POWER is that the petrol engine is used solely to generate electricity, whilst the wheels are completely driven by the electric motor. This means the engine can always run within its optimal range, leading to superior fuel efficiency in urban settings

Integral to the design of the e-POWER installation is the "linear tune", which governs the operation of the petrol engine, ensuring that it's spinning at an appropriate speed relative to road speed, avoiding the "rev-up" effect of traditional hybrids under hard acceleration. A secondary benefit is the refinement it brings, ensuring the engine is running only at the speed it needs to, which is typically low in urban and suburban conditions.

In addition to these benefits, the e-POWER drive system guarantees a quiet drive, for example at 40 km/h the sound in the car reduces by 8db compared with competitors.

A new all-wheel drive system designed to work exclusively with Nissan's electrified powertrains is introduced on the all-new X-Trail in Europe. e-4ORCE will deliver reassuring traction and confident acceleration in all conditions thanks to Nissan's most advanced all-wheel control technology. The "e" in e-4ORCE represents that the system was developed to work solely with Nissan's electrified powertrains. Indeed, it will also be offered on Nissan's 100% electric Ariya.

I’ve seen a couple of other review videos. This is simply the best I’ve ever seen so far. It answered all of my questions. Many thanks!

Another awesome review mate 👍 Keep up the excellent work and wishing you a very happy Christmas from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 ❤

[laurenwhite]

Your review is so thorough. Thank you.

[Bennymix]

Thanks for the review. I am about to rent this and was wondering about the boot space and the rear seat adjustability. Your review gives me a great insight

[chipperxavier]

Thank you very much, Dan. You did a wonderful job. Again, thank you. - Chipper F. Xavier, Esq.

[michelollers]

One of the best reviews of the new X-trail so far 🙏🏻. I would be interested in the lower spec 2WD tekna as well 😊

[sergiytro]

Thanks a lot, waiting for 7 seater review please 🙏

[yt-user]

Can you get in your country an optional "Intelligent Rear View Mirrow"? E.g. in Australia you can and in Middle East to.
In Australia you have also this option
"40/20/40 split folding second row seat with manual recline, center pass-through or centre armrest".

Top Dan! As usual a very complete review. I'm a wheelchair person and I like this car a lot but would be useful for me to know the height of the driver seat from the ground. Thanks in advance for what you can do

[Birdstweettoot]

How many miles this car can do with full tank?

[vjekan]

Great review!
I know it's not a direct comparison, but what would you say is more spacious in the back seats, this X-Trail or Skoda Superb? I'm looking for a family car that can have 2 child seats in the back and one person between the child seats as well and need a car that could do that and that would be comfortable.

[adinaths]

When do we get in india Right hand drive diesel or petrol

[danielboricean]

Is lovely that is simple, good taste, no gearbox, efficient, spacious and very good looking. I didn't find negative points. And motor capacity is litle compare with other cars same size. So this should mean lower operating cost, taxes and insurance.

[LiberNoster]

Hello and thank you for this nice review.
You mentioned that one could sleep in that car. My question would be about the size (longitude) with folded seats. From trunk to first row seats.
Is it about 1, 80 m or less?

Thank you

[Sky-eicy]

Super review, din ce am văzut pana acum nimeni n-a petrecut aproape o ora doar cu prezentarea mașinii. Păcat ca la noi ești obligat sa iei scaunele de piele împreună cu rotile de 20". Era mai bine sa fi rămas ca opțiune ori sa ai opțiune la Tekna scaunele de piele. Personal prefer jantele pe 19, salvează un pic din rigiditate dar mai ales nu le julesti de trotuare ca pe cele de 20.

[Siberian]

Not the same car class, but how would you compare X-Trail and Renault Austral?

[ohlasdohla]

63.000 $. No seat ventilation. No backside camera washer. Facepalm.
