The bumpers were also upgraded. Now the front and back flaunts flaunt LED ticks, designed to indicate the side and running lights.

The front and roof have been improved. In the new body of the Nissan X Trail, the lines of the bonnet have become smoother, and the angle of inclination of the upper part of the car is sharp and futuristic.

The main change in the body of the model was an innovative solution for crossovers from Nissan designers - a roof with a panoramic view... Now you can get even more pleasure from trips to nature or out of town.

The designers have upgraded the optical system. The changes affected the headlights. Now they have an unusual trapezoidal shape. The car has not lost its characteristics, but at the same time its appearance has become pleasant and elegant.


The safety of the case is now reinforced with impact-resistant black plastic. It covers the bottom of the hood and the wheel arches of the new model.

The main task of the constructors and designers was to expand the space inside, and in this they have achieved success. The arrangement of the seats and dashboard has changed, thanks to which there is more space inside. Now this model can be used as a full-fledged family crossover.

In particular, this effect was achieved by increasing the distance between the roof and the heads of passengers. The salon has become higher, so it is much more pleasant and comfortable to be in it.

The designers have made one of the main changes in the new model. Now rear seats can be moved, if desired, increasing the volume of the trunk or, conversely, making the legroom for passengers in the second row more for their convenience.


The steering wheel design has been completely redesigned. It now has the look of a GT-R supercar - three-spoke with leather trim.

The manufacturer paid much attention to the new technology of manufacturing seats for their models - "Zero-Gravity". The seats are much more pleasant and comfortable, thanks to this modernization, the driver and passengers do not experience discomfort in the back and legs. On this seat you will rest.

When assembling, it is possible to choose the shade and material of the chairs. Available in black or beige fabric or leather. Upholstery comes by default, while leather seats are optional.

Internal options

Like anyone modern carThe Nissan X Trail has a great set of features. Let's analyze the "stuffing" of the machine in more detail.


This includes:

  • airbags;
  • assistance in climbing and descending from it;
  • climate control for two zones;
  • electric heated front glass;
  • modern audio system;
  • folding the mirrors using an electric drive;

Each of these options can be installed in the car, depending on the configuration chosen by the buyer.

Specifications

This side of the model in the new body has not undergone any changes. As before, in Russia, depending on the equipment, 5 engines with two types of transmissions are available.

We will analyze in more detail specifications Nissan X Trail 2019, its configuration and prices.

The first 3 engines from the table are suitable for fans of country trips. They have average characteristics, suitable for moving into nature or around the area. These motors are reliable and resistant to breakage when driving off-road. They are included in one of the most variable configurations - SE.

The MT6 AWD engine will be the ideal solution for people who purchase a car exclusively for city driving. Mechanics and low top speed make this motor excellent option for a working machine. It will be reliable on city trips, but will not be able to compete with other versions Nissan x-trail on long journeys.

The strongest engine - 2.5 CVT AWD - will appeal to fans of business trips. Large volume of fuel, high power and top speed make this motor ideal for driving on intercity highways. This engine is the best in terms of reliability and will withstand a ride of any complexity and duration.

Configuration and prices Nissan X-Trail 2018 in a new body

In addition to all the options, an electric drive for the position of the passengers' seats in 4 directions, personal lamps for rear passengers are installed on the car. There is also a panoramic roof.

What are the caveats?

They are all related to localization: the version I lived with for a week in the Emirates is for the Middle East. Accordingly, by the time of the Russian start of production and sales, something may have changed both in terms of configurations and in technical terms. Usually, all versions of global models adapted for Russia receive enlarged washer tanks, high-capacity batteries, heated seats and glass. It is possible that the Russian X-Trail will receive other calibrations of the engine (for our fuel) and suspension. But these are details, and the main thing should not change.

What has changed after the restyling?

With the restyling, it turned out frankly strange: what would need to be finished, remained in place. What did not require intervention was changed. This mainly concerns the appearance.

There was no particular need for its redrawing, but according to the law of the genre, the X-Trail received a new front with a wide "V" in the entire radiator grille, completely redesigned fog light sections, different head optics and lights at the stern. It turned out brutally: X-Trail now no longer refers to the youngest "Qashqai", but to the older Pathfinder.

Inside, the most noticeable differences are the beveled steering wheel and two-tone trim. I hope that the latter will survive to the Russian version: so far, the interiors of our X-Trail "but come in only one variation" Black panther in a coal mine at night". The interior of the overseas restyled version is much more elegant and richer - almost like that of the brother: both in beauty and in quality of decoration. You can take a closer look at the interactive graphics:

In the European specification, the media system should be more modern: with digital radio and a new interface. I hope that cloudy QVGA cameras will also be left in the Emirates, and they will bring us something at least in HD format (we don't even dream of 4K). For the European version, a light autopilot was announced for 2018 - "ProPILOT", which I did not find in the Middle East X-Trail.

Competitors from VW, for example, have been almost without driver assistance for three years already, so I expected something like this from the restyled X-Trail. But I did not even see the banal system of keeping in the lane. There is an adaptive cruise, and it is very good - it clearly and accurately maintains the distance to the car in front and quickly responds to those who climb in front of you from the next row, slowing down and creating a safe gap. There is also a blind spot monitoring system. But you have to hold on to the wheel yourself. It's a pity, because the Middle East is exactly the place where autopilots are useful right now: from Abu Dhabi to Sharjah and back, you move along a highway as straight as an arrow with good markings, and you are not really needed here as a driver.

What's with the engines?

X-Trail is available in different regions with its own set power units... In Europe, these are mainly diesel engines ( 1,6 and 2.0 l) and a new 4-cylinder petrol turbo engine 1.6 l, which replaced the 2-liter aspirated. In the Emirates, only a 2.5-liter aspirated is available - 169 h.p.... in their specification (in our - 171 h.p.). I think that somewhere at the intersection of West and East our line of engines will also be. It is unlikely that we will get a turbo four - atmospheric 2.0 is less technologically advanced, therefore cheaper. Diesel engines are also not very popular with us, so it's good if they leave only the 1.6-liter one, it's naive to dream of a "kopeck piece". In general, my prediction is that X-Trail will come to us with the same set of engines: 2.0 for advertising " From ... rub", 2.5 liters at the top, diesel - for aesthetes.

If so, then I will have nothing to say. The 2.5-liter X-Trail with CVT hasn't changed its character one iota. The key is that it is very difficult to get used to it. The variator works in such a way that it makes no sense to press into the floor for intensive acceleration, the torque has to be caught with the right foot, constantly playing with the accelerator. The specificity of the transmission is such that there is no linear relationship between the punching shear depth and the applied acceleration. And nothing in this regard has changed over the past years.

What about the seats?

And here it is interesting. Last years I and many colleagues have asked Nissan specialists why the X-Trail doesn't have a seven-seat version? There was only one answer: “ We have a seven-seater Pathfinder". The catch is that Pathfinder has left Russia since last year. And then I won't be surprised if it partially replaces it top version X-Trail with seven seats. At least in nature there is one. Although there is little sense in this: with the middle sofa fully shifted, there is space in the third row only for the cat. If you move the middle sofa, then there will be a place in the gallery for a couple of simple and young guys. Although only a cat will be able to accommodate well there - I just didn't fit.

In short, if the seven-seater version reaches us, someone may need it. If not, that's okay. In a five-seater performance it's downright chic family car with a lot of space in all dimensions. Quite a replacement for extinct minivans.

And from this - family - point of view, he looked at me very much. Jester with it, rock art instead of the navigation interface (Maps.me is on the smartphone), all-round view for a tick and boring aspirated when the car has excellent sound insulation, smooth gait, a huge panoramic roof and trunk, which is difficult to fill with suitcases of four travelers! And also the expense from 11 before 5 l / 100 km... And " 11 "- this is not urban, but suburban - just at an average pace of 120-140 legal km / h, a tall car spends too much energy to resist the oncoming wind.

In general, if by the Russian start Nissan keeps prices for the X-Trail in the same range ( 1.4 - 2.0 million), it will be practically the Best offer in terms of rubles per cubic meter of usable space, which is clearly more than in the Sportage and Tiguan, and no less than in the seven-seater Kodiaq. When? The Russian representative office answers according to the classics.

Today, June 3, the premiere of the new Nissan X-Trail 2017 took place. Updated crossover received a new appearance and interior trim, innovative technological filling. European sales new Nissan X-Trail 2017 will begin in August 2017. There will be a new Nissan Ixtrail in Russia, but the timing of the start of local production and sales has not yet been announced.

The Nissan X-Trail (called the Rogue in the US) is the world's best-selling crossover. In 2016, 766 thousand X-Trail / Rogue were purchased. Since 2000, when this model first appeared, more than 3.7 million people have already purchased it.

The current premiere of the new Nissan X-Trail 2017-2018 is the first major face-lift of the third-generation Nissan X-Trail, whose European sales began in 2014. The first thing you pay attention to is the new look of the car.

The appearance of the new Nissan X-Trail (t32)

At the front, the Nissan X-Trail (T32) received a new wider V-shaped grille, new headlights, a new bumper with a wide air intake and chrome trim. The headlights received boomerang-shaped LED running lights. Instead of halogen lights, the more expensive equipment received full LED headlights with Adaptive Lighting System (AFS). Fog lights are now trapezoidal.

The rear of the vehicle has been refined with a new chrome bumper and redesigned full LED taillights.


The chrome trim on the lower edge of the doors makes the 2017/2018 Nissan X-Trail profile look slimmer, tighter and stronger. An external shark fin antenna is installed on the roof.


The customer can now choose from 10 car body colors, including 4 brand new ones: Orange Pearl, Red Pearl, Blue Pearlescent Metallic and Dark Brown Mother of Pearl.

Complete set of the updated Nissan X-Trail 2017/2018

The interior of the Nissan X-Trail has also been redesigned. It has become more practical, roomy and convenient for large family trips. In particular, second-row legroom is the best in its class.


Seating back row the car can also be folded, increasing the boot capacity from 565 liters to 1996 liters. In addition, the manufacturer has come up with a convenient Luggage Board System by adjusting various positions of the shelf and dividers. There is also a hiding place for valuables.



The SUV received a new D-shaped steering wheel, which means more free entry and exit of the driver and better overview dashboard... The steering wheel is now electrically heated and has new four-degree-of-freedom switches that allow you to drive the SUV without taking your eyes off the road.


The car received higher quality interior materials, such as the black lacquered surface of the air ducts. For the first time, the front and rear seats were heated. The Tekna version received a BOSE Premium audio system with 8 speakers, and as an option, two-tone leather upholstery.

IN basic configuration the audio system received digital radio (DAB). Navigation system with touch control received a new smart interface similar to Android applications.

In 2018, the car will be available new option autonomous driving ProPILOT. She is able to steer, accelerate and slow down, keeping the lane both on the highway and in the city bustle. In addition, the crossover has a pedestrian recognition and emergency braking system. There is a reversing parking assist system that warns of approaching cars.
