The next stage of Nissan’s electrified product offensive has taken shape with the UK premiere of the all-new, fourth-generation X-Trail.
Over two decades, scrutinizingly seven million units of X-Trail have been sold globally, making it one of the world’s most popular family venture vehicles.
Starting at £32,030, the all-new X-Trail offers a unique combination of rugged eye-catching design, comfort, on-board convenience, and an effortless, confident drive.
For this new iteration, Nissan has drawn on the well-established DNA that runs through all three of the previous generations: muscular design, flexible utility, and wide all-wheel momentum capabilities.
The all-new X-Trail will be misogynist in both five- and seven-seat configurations, offering a user-friendly option for days out with extended family or friends.
Thanks to the new Alliance CMF-C platform, which showcases wide engineering, innovation and technology, the all-new X-Trail will then raise the bar in the crossover segment.
Customers with a taste for venture will savour the enhanced dynamic performance and wide electrification technologies that the new generation of X-Trail offers.
Francois Bailly, Senior Vice President and Chief Planning Officer for Nissan’s AMIEO Region, said: “Replacing an icon like the X-Trail is a huge responsibility.
“It has established itself as a vehicle for families to share vita in, so we know what our customers appreciate. For the fourth generation, we will requite them the topics for adventure, with an wide electrified all-wheel momentum powertrain, combined with intuitive and user-friendly technology.”
Nissan’s iconic X-Trail will victorious on the streets of the UK soon with dealers now worldly-wise to take consumer orders.
Modern, muscular styling
Central to X-Trail’s request will be its distinctive styling which projects a reassuring sense of prominence and robustness, without stuff aggressive.
Both the exterior and interior of the All-New X-Trail reflect the spirit of the vehicle – versatile and adventurous. The exterior is highlighted by signature Nissan diamond elements such as the floating roof and V-motion grille.
The frontal speciality is framed by striking headlights that towards moulded within the bodywork of the front bumper, with combined daytime running lights and indicators nestled withal the shut-line of the hood.
From the side, muscular wheel arches at the front and rear requite the X-Trail presence on the road, whilst at the wiring of the doors, an inset full-length brings a sense of fluidity to the sheer surfaces of the doors.
New X-Trail will be misogynist in 10 soul colours with five two-tone combinations, creating 15 variations to segregate from.
e-POWER drivetrain
The all-new X-Trail will be the second model in Nissan’s European range to be equipped with the brand’s innovative e‑POWER momentum system. Exclusive to Nissan, e-POWER is a unique tideway to electrification, offering the EV-drive feeling without the need to recharge.
First introduced in Japan on Note in 2016, it went on to wilt the best-selling car, with customers loving its combination of smooth, effortless performance and cable-free ownership.
The defining full-length of e-POWER is that the petrol engine is used solely to generate electricity, whilst the wheels are completely driven by the electric motor. This ways the engine can unchangingly run within its optimal range, leading to superior fuel efficiency in urban settings.
e-Pedal Step
Given that 70 per cent of momentum time is likely to be spent in suburban areas, Nissan ripened a ‘one-pedal’ driving wits tabbed e-Pedal Step. Designed to take the repetitive strain out of stop-start urban driving, where the suburbanite is commonly moving their foot between the smatter and brake, e-Pedal Step allows drivers to slide and restriction using only the accelerator.
Mild Hybrid Version
While the e-POWER equipped version of the X-Trail will make up the majority of the demand for the vehicle, it will moreover be offered with the turbocharged 1.5-litre variable pinch ratio powering the wheels in the traditional fashion.
Generating 120kW (163PS) and 300Nm of torque, it will be offered only in two-wheel momentum configuration, with power to the wheels stuff transmitted via the Xtronic stepped continuously variable transmission.
In driving scenarios with relaxed driving and light acceleration, the engine switches to upper pinch ratio for optimised fuel efficiency, while in situations where increasingly performance is needed, the pinch ratio is adjusted to a low level.
The powertrain is moreover equipped with 12v Mild Hybrid technology. The system provides torque-assist, extended idle stop, quick restart and coasting stop, with benefits to both fuel economy and CO2 output.
When decelerating, energy is recovered through regeneration and stored in the lithium-ion battery. This charged energy is then used to run the car’s systems while the engine is stopped, while waiting at a red light for example. Additionally, a torque uplift of virtually 6Nm can be generated under acceleration.
This ways that the unshortened X-Trail line up is now electrified.
e-4ORCE
A new all-wheel momentum system designed to work with Nissan’s electrified powertrains is introduced on the All-New X-Trail in Europe. e-4ORCE will unhook reassuring traction and confident velocity in all conditions thanks to Nissan’s most wide all-wheel tenancy technology.
The “e” in e-4ORCE stands for Nissan’s 100 per cent electric motor momentum system. “4ORCE” refers to the vehicle’s physical power and energy, with “4” representing all-wheel control. It will moreover be arriving on ARIYA, early 2023.
Cliodnha Lyons, Region Vice President, Product Planning, Nissan AMIEO Region, said: “The X-Trail with e-POWER and e-4ORCE will occupy a unique corner of the segment, stuff the only seven-seater family crossover with an electrified powertrain. The X-Trail is precisely the type of vehicle modern venturesome families are looking for.”
