Nissan is preparing to launch its new SUV, the Nissan X-Trail, in India. We say this because the Japanese carmaker has released the first teaser for the new SUV. The X-Trail would be Nissan’s only other offering in its Indian portfolio, alongside the Magnite SUV. Here’s everything you need to know about the new X-Trail:

Exteriors and Interiors

Internationally, the X-Trail is available in both five- and seven-seater configurations. The dimensions of this SUV are as follows:

In terms of design, it features a split-headlight setup with LED lights and a big grille sporting Nissan’s latest V-motion design. The SUV has either 18- or 19-inch alloy wheels, depending on the variant. It has LED tail lights but lacks a light bar, which is standard on most modern SUVs today.

The interior is two-tone black and tan leatherette, with silver accents on the elements. However, the interior colour of the Indian model may vary.

Expected Features and Safety

The X-Trail is expected to come with three-zone climate control, wireless phone charging, a powered tailgate, heated & powered front seats with memory function, a 10-speaker premium Bose surround sound system, a three-zone automatic climate control unit, and a panoramic sunroof. A 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a fully digital driver's display of the same size, and a 10.8-inch head-up display are also expected.

The safety features may include an ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems) suite that includes adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, front collision warning, and blind spot detection, as well as a 360-degree camera. 

Engine and Performance

Globally, the Nissan X-Trail offers either a strong-hybrid powertrain or a turbo-petrol engine with mild-hybrid tech. Detailed specifications are as follows:

It will be interesting to see which of these engine options Nissan brings to India.

India Launch and Rivals

We expect the 2024 Nissan X-Trail to be launched in India in July, with prices likely to start over Rs 40 lakh (ex-showroom). It will compete with the Skoda Kodiaq, Jeep Meridian, Toyota Fortuner, and MG Gloster.
