Nissan X-Trail SUV (2007-2014) review - CarBuyer 

Thanks for this info, happy to hear (i'm 6'4")

I agree, it's surprisingly spacious for its size!

Im also a tall guy(193cm)and I'm looking for a reliable SUV.What are the common problems of this car?can you help me with a review.?

These 2.0 litre dCi REnault engines have proven to be incredibly reliable with many people getting moonshot mileages out of them. How did you break the engine??

My only take away from this comment was, “omg… 2007 was 17 YEARS ago!!”

it drives nice though im currently hiring a brand new one with only 2300 miles on the clock

I agree.. i have the first gen. Its really good off and on road. Driving off road in the country side, i never hit its under side of its front bumper when im traversing a rough terrain. its more of an SUV than a crossover. Unlike the new one, the front bumper will definitely will hit the ground unless you some modification. I love mine its really good for out door activities.

actually it can't tow much

Is it diesel or gasoline, CVT or Manual?

how about the fuel consomtion?

my mum has a 2009 and I love it. tomorrow I am buying a 2010 and couldnt be happier!

​@@josedrumerwhat's the fuel consumption like

crap@@PorkysNewTeeth could only make like 310kms per tank I sold it and now I have a 2023 tucson turbo. the xtrail was fun tho. excelent strong car with lots of space

Or Canada

agreeee!

maybe she was drunk.

She is tiny though, and she meant against the competition. The competition also don't have that old fashioned boxy design so I'd expect the X-Trail to have a lot more leg room than that.

Billy Johnson the new one is not boxy. ..unfortunately, yet even less spacious interior..IMO

srinivasan krishnamoorthy X-TrIl owner here and I can tell you the boot is pretty big. Double if you can fold the seats.

contact me whenever youre interested in selling it

The car's not bad either!

I think she’s referring to the fact that the engine does the same horsepower and pound feet of torque

@@carsandrides732 Well I guess than that was a joke, or that's what I want to believe

You never know, maybe she knows cars that have 2! Lol 😆

True

I completely agree with you about the Juke and the Qashqai, they are two of the ugliest cars out there at the moment.

How much you pay? I saw one for £4600, 1 owner with all service history, great condition, but 160k miles.

I have just emitted a massive thunderclap fart. It's all those pickled mussels I eat.

with a very good oil, CASTROL TITANIUM, you will have more horses and better motor else!! This kind of motor need the best one.

It's not spacious ? It seems big enough ...

A model she may be but she's also a top class racing driver.

good to know..thinking of buying one myself

@Black Brain Absolutely. I have had one for 7 years now and travels to far places. Just don't skip on maintenance!

+Shem Mac yeah man it bigger by a long shot. One of these was in a car yard next to a Landrover Discovery, a Prado a vitara and Escape and a Freelander and an Outlander and it was bigger and better layed out by far which is why I want one of these SUV's.

@@Palpac Do the seats fold flat? Or do they fold up behind the front seats like on the outlander?

The 2.0 petrol or 2.4?

Torque is what gets you down the road my friend. And petrol versions (unlike the diesel variants) come with the horrid CVT.

yes

I'm glad it's your money...

Ouch 😅 what made you sell it?

It has a spare? I brought 2008 and can’t find it!

so should be a perfect car for some one less than 6 foot then ! how about the maintenance ? Is it as good as a toyota ?

It is definitely better than RAV4, and about the maintanance, nothing I can really say, the car has been working just fine for 5-6 years now. Also, I have been driving in different cars now, and what I noticed is that the engine is a little bit louder than competition (we got the 180bhp diesel, manual). No biggie though ;)

Michal Jurík thanks for the info , I always had the confusion between Rav4 CRV and XTrail. I like the optional 4x4 in xtrail whereas the rest are just AWD. Honda ruled out because no diesel variant. Btw how is the space at the back ? I hear people claim it's not big enough though the video shows very roomy. May I know which year model you are having ? Sorry for too many questions :)

No worries, I am glad to help. Of the three you mentioned (CRV, RAV4 and Xtrail), the Nissan is undoubtely the roomiest- tallest and widest. We have the 2007 model, but now there is the new Xtrail; don't know about that one. I sat in all of them, and in my opinion, the CRV is just too small- more like Qashqai. Off-road capabilities are as well better on the Nissan- higher ground clearance and great 4x4. Regarding the space in the back, none of these are very spacious- I am really tall (just got new car- Skoda Superb, which has tons of space all around). Xtrail is alright in the back regarding leg room, the head room is not so good for tall people. Cannot say about the other ones; the older Rav4 was a little bit better regarding head space in the back. Once again, new the Xtrail might be better in all of these fields. Would be my choice no doubt!

Michal Jurík I got the 2010 model which is this generation. I now regret buying it since the new generation looks more exciting. I don't know why they don't offer rear AC in my region (Middle East) where it is highly needed!! Yet the video shows that they do provide Rear AC vents in europe. That sucks.

It is

Alexandre Lebeau Thanks for that info mate, I wasn't sure.

from 07 was a Renault engine
