The debut of a new generation of Japanese SUVs "Nissan Ixtrail" took place last fall as part of the international Frankfurt auto show. According to manufacturers, the novelty will go on sale by the summer of 2014. In the meantime, motorists are waiting for the SUV to appear on the Russian market, we will devote a separate review to it.
"Nissan Xtrail": reviews and design review
It is immediately clear that the car has lost its former brutality and began to look like a standard SUV.
Yes, this is not the same Nissan Xtrail anymore. Reviews from motorists say that the old series was much more attractive and at least looked like an all-wheel drive SUV. Now it is a glamorous crossover for driving exclusively on paved surfaces. However, despite such a reaction from the public, experts predict a successful future for the novelty. And there are strong arguments for this. Firstly, the appearance of the Nissan Xtrail has become more modern and even innovative. The lines of the body, bumper and hood cannot be called obsolete, which means that the novelty will be in stable demand for the next 3-4 years. And looking atsuccessful sales of past generations, it is safe to say that the new Nissan Xtrail 2014 is one of the most successful developments of the Japanese concern this year.
Salon
The inside of the crossover has been radically redesigned. Almost everything has changed inside. Now the novelty is equipped with many additional electronic devices, including an on-board computer and a navigation system.
In addition to the classic 5-seat body, there is also a new 7-seat modification. However, the 7-seater saloon is not much more spacious than the 5-seater Nissan Xtrail. Expert reviews say that the length of such an SUV (and it does not differ much from a short base) allows only children to fit in the third row. There is a catastrophic lack of space for an adult here. But there is no need to blame the salon for this. Sitting in a crossover, you understand that its interior has been brought to perfection. It looks so stylish and expensive that sometimes you confuse it with a luxurious Mercedes GL-class. Only genuine leather and high-quality plastic are used here as finishing materials. The luxury of the interior is stylishly emphasized by chrome-look inserts.
"Nissan Ixtrail": reviews of technical specifications
Under the hood of the novelty is a 1.6-liter diesel engine with a capacity of 150 horsepower. Paired with it is a six-speed "mechanics" or a stepless variator Xtronic. Of course, there will be gasoline versions of the units, but aboutThe manufacturer hasn't said anything yet. It is predicted that there will be several installations at once, and at least one gasoline engine will definitely be on the new Nissan Xtrail SUV.
Price Reviews
Specific prices for the new generation of crossovers, the manufacturer has not yet disclosed. However, there will definitely not be sharp jumps in cost, at least with this generation of Nissan Ixtrail. Expert reviews say that the novelty will cost no more than 1,000,000-1,500,000 rubles. The price directly depends on the configuration. The appearance of the Nissan Xtrail SUV in Moscow is expected in the middle of this year.
