The model
Read full Nissan X-Trail reviewAs a five-seater, the Nissan X-Trail is a spacious and comfortable cruiser. However, if you’re shopping for a seven-seater there are plenty of other options at around the same price that are more spacious and versatile. If you do buy an X-Trail, the front-wheel-drive e-Power in entry-level Acenta Premium trim offers the best value.
The trim
See full equipmentIf you’re after luxuries, Tekna is the first place that you want to look. This trim adds larger 19in alloy wheels, a power tailgate, a head-up display, heated front and rear seats, electronically adjustable front seats with memory function and 40/20/40 split-folding rear seats. It’s expensive, though, and hard to recommend.
The engine
See full engine specsDespite being the most powerful version of the X-Trail and officially sprinting from 0-62mph in 7.0sec, the E-Power E-4orce doesn’t feel all that fast. It has plenty of oomph to get you up to speed on a motorway slip road, but we don’t think the power and grip benefits are really worth the extra investment.
