Nissan X-Trail: Top reasons to buy

Nissan X-Trail is a great package for an SUV. It has got the right looks, performance, spacious interior, and safety features that would please you every time. The Nissan X-Trail price starts at RM 133,800 for the base model and goes as high as RM 158,300 for the top-end variant. It comes in four color options - Brilliant White, Tungsten Silver, Diamond Black, and Titanium Olive.

Here are the top reasons why should you buy the Nissan X-Trail.

Visually appealing

Nissan did a great job to make the X-Trail look appealing. It might not have a large chrome grille like its rivals, but the V-shaped unit is more than sufficient to impart a sporty stance. Helping it further are LED DRLs and sharp headlights. The bumper is also quite sporty. The side profile of the X-Trail is improved by the stylish alloy wheels and roof rails. We get to see the use of chrome on the door handles. The rear end gets a two-piece combination tail light clusters that provide high visibility for drivers approaching from behind. Nissan has also provided a bit chrome garnish at the boot lid for that added premium look.

Nissan X-Trail front

If you want to have a sportier-looking model, then you can choose between the other two available Nissan X-Trail variants - X-Trail Aero Edition and X-Trail X-Tremer. The former gets TOMEI Aerokit, gloss black 5-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels and even the luxurious brown Nappa leather seats. The latter gets two-tone color, passion red with a black silhouette roof, and a new bold front X-face cladding along with a new chrome rear bumper protector.

Engine and performance

Nissan X-Trail engine

The Nissan X-Trail specs let you choose between two engine options - a 2.0-Litre 4-pot engine which produces 144 PS of max power at 6000 revs and generates 200 Nm of peak torque at 4400 revs. The other engine is a 2.5-litre unit that churns out 171 PS and 233 Nm. Both the engines are mated to the XTRONIC CVT with 7-speed manual but it is only the latter that offers 4WD capability.

Advanced safety features

Nissan X-Trail comes with many advanced safety features that make your drive on the road that much safer. These safety features include Intelligent Engine Brake (IEB), Intelligent Ride Control (IRC), Intelligent Trace Control (ITC), Hill Start Assist (HSA), Advanced Hill Descent Control (HDC), Active Brake Limited Slip (ABLS), EBD with BA, ABS, Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC), Traction Control System (TCS), and dual front airbags.

Another interesting and useful safety feature of the X-Trail is Nissan’s Intelligent Around View Monitor (IAVM). It utilises feed from all the four cameras located at different parts of the vehicle to show you a complete panoramic, 360-degree view of everything’s that is in the immediate vicinity of the vehicle. This comes in handy while parking in tight spaces.

It is because of these great safety features that Nissan X-Trail has scored a 5-star ASEAN NCAP safety rating and has been the 2nd runner-up in 2015 ASEAN Car of the Year.

Interior and features

The interior of the Nissan X-Trail is quite spacious. There is a good amount of space for the people in both the first and second row of seats. There is also the third row but it is best suited for kids. In terms of comfort, Nissan’s Zero Gravity Inspired tech for its seats provide a good amount of comfort and lumbar support. It is good to know that we have two rear AC vents which should be a must for a car of this size. The second-row seats can be moved forward and backwards and can also be reclined as per your requirements.

Nissan X-Trail interior

The high-quality 5-inch infotainment system supports FM, AM, CD, MP3, AUX, and USB connectivity. However, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support are still missing. The dual-zone automatic climate control works well. As for the storage spaces go, there are a total of 10 cup holders including two with cooling function.
