Nissan X Trail

Click below to read car reviews of the Nissan X Trail. At Review Centre we have thousands of reviews of cars including other Nissan makes and models, both new and used, like the Nissan Skyline, the Nissan Micra and the Nissan Primera.


The Nissan X-Trail was introduced in late 2001 and is regarded as a good competitor for your attention in the so called soft-roader category. Honda CR-V and Landrover Freelander being a couple of the other main players. In the 4 x 4 comfort stakes the X-Trial rates highly in most areas and also receives excellent feedback for performance and handling. Our reviewers are generally satisfied with the X-Trail although several indicate a recurring problem with engine cut out which may be of concern.
