Nissan earlier last week confirmed the launch of the X-Trail in India sometime around later in July. The SUV was first showcased in India back in 2022, although the X-Trail moniker is not new to the Indian market. The SUV was on sale in the country between 2005 and 2014. In its latest iteration, the X-Trail will be brought to India as a fully-imported CBU model, at least initially.
Based on the CMF-C platform that has been co-developed alongside Renault. The X-Trail is Nissan’s attempt at clawing back into the market which currently has a very thin portfolio in India. In the latest teaser, Nissan highlights more or less the same elements as shown in the previous teaser.
Nissan X-Trail: Design & Specs
The latest clip of the X-Trail highlights the grille of the car flanked by the sleek inverted L-shaped LED DRLs. The teaser image and video are proof enough that it is indeed the X-Trail courtesy of the very familiar face featuring the reverse trapezoidal V-motion grille with a chrome surround, and a front camera.
Along with the face, grille, and LED headlights, the new teaser also reveals the dual-tone spoke alloy wheels along with the L-shaped LED tail lights.The India-spec X-Trail could be offered in both five- and seven-seat versions.
Internationally, the Nissan X-Trail is offered with multiple powertrains depending on the market. The India-spec model is expected to be powered by a 1.5-litre turbo petrol mild hybrid powertrain which dishes out 201 bhp and 330 Nm of peak torque. A CVT automatic gearbox will be offered as standard. This powertrain is likely to be available in both front and all-wheel drive (AWD) configurations.
In terms of features, the X-Trail is expected to come equipped with a plethora of creature comforts including three-zone climate control, powered tailgate, panoramic sunroof, engine start-stop button, all-LED illumination and more.
