The fourth-generation X-Trail (sold as the Rogue in the US) is the model Nissan needed to keep up in the mid-size SUV segment. Built on the new CMF-CD platform shared with the Mitsubishi Outlander, with the new 2.5 L petrol engine and the all-wheel drive system that drops the previous-gen CVT in favour of a proper torque-converter setup.
What you are buying
A 2.5 L petrol making 135 kW and 244 Nm, paired with an Xtronic CVT, driving the front wheels or all four with the AWD option. Five seats standard, with a seven-seat option in some trims. The Ti spec adds the panoramic roof, the larger screen, leather seats, and the upgraded ProPILOT driver assistance.
Cartell Assessment
The X-Trail Ti is the safe mid-size SUV that does everything competently. It is not the most exciting in the segment, but the cabin is properly resolved, the AWD trim handles light off-road duty cleanly, and the Nissan service network is well established.
AU Outlook
X-Trail Ti AWD pricing in Australia sits in the high-$50k drive-away range. The petrol ST entry is around $40k. Cross-shop is the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid and the Mazda CX-5 Akera. Note the e-POWER trim brings the hybrid drivetrain reviewed separately.
