The Nissan X-Trail SUV will soon be added to the carmaker’s Indian product portfolio. Prices of the model are slated to be announced on 1st August. While its official booking amount and details are yet to be revealed, select Nissan dealers have already started accepting orders. The SUV will arrive in its fourth-generation avatar via CBU (completely built-up unit), and that’s why it will come at a premium price. We expect it to cost around Rs 40 lakh (ex-showroom), making it a direct rival to the Skoda Kodiaq and Volkswagen Tiguan. Read: Upcoming Nissan Mid-Size SUV To Offer More Features Than New Duster
The upcoming Nissan full-size SUV will be offered with a single 1.5L turbo petrol engine benefited by 12V mild hybrid tech. The setup delivers a maximum power of 163 PS and 300 Nm of torque. Transmission duties will be performed by a CVT automatic unit. Unlike the global-spec model that also comes with Nissan’s e-Power series hybrid powertrain, the X-Trail in India will miss out on it. Here, we will receive it with the FWD setup and a limited-slip differential.
Nissan X-Trail For India
Feature-wise, the Nissan X-Trail offers an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity and a 12.3-inch fully digital driver’s display. The list also includes a 360-degree camera, a panoramic sunroof, a wireless phone charger, sliding and reclining second-row seats, paddle shifters, seven airbags, front and rear parking sensors, an electronic parking brake with auto hold, rain-sensing wipers, and more.
The design of the India-spec X-Trail appears similar to its global model. Upfront, the full-size SUV features the signature V-shaped grille with chrome surrounds, headlamp clusters with a split setup, and LED DRLs. The side profile is adorned with 20-inch alloy wheels, pronounced wheel arches, and thick body cladding. At the back, you will notice ‘Nissan’ and ‘X-Trail’ badges, wraparound LED taillamps, and a sporty skid plate.
