Posted 8 years ago by QuikrCars | 742 views

Nissan will be launching an array of SUVs in the Indian car market and one of them is the X-Trail. The X-Trail will be making a comeback in the Indian car market in its new avatar. The new-generation X-Trail looks contemporary and it is certainly a lot more stylish than the previous sold X-Trail, which was rather very boxy in styling.

The new X-Trail coming to India is a seven-seater SUV that will be powered by a new 1.6-liter diesel engine and will be producing about 150bhp of power. The X-Trail is lighter, more powerful and at the same time a lot more fuel efficient too. The X-Trail will be offered with an AWD (all wheel drive) and maybe even two-wheel drive mode. The X-Trail will be competing with the Hyundai Santa Fe and Toyota Fortuner. This is the first time the X-Trail has even been made as a seven-seater.

The X-Trail is based on the Renault-Nissan CMF C-D platform, and the CMF-A is already built in India. This is a new platform and it shares this with the Renault Kadjar and even the Nissan Qashqai. These are the other SUVs that will be making their way into the Indian car market sometime next year or in early 2017. Nissan’s Qashqai will be a smaller five-seater SUV that will be priced higher than the Terrano. The X-Trail’s interiors are stylish and it is feature-loaded. Despite its compact dimensions the SUV is spacious and it is a highly capable soft roader too. Nissan has a comeback with a very strong SUV and this is liking to change the dynamics of this segment. The pricing will be in the range of INR 22-27 lakhs (ex-showroom).
