With the arrival of the life cycle of this generation of models, Nissan X-Trail and the US version of Nissan Rogue will also usher in a new generation of products. After more than half a year of warm-up, Nissan Motor released the American version of Rogue a few days ago. According to the plan, the domestic X-Trail will also usher in a new generation this year.
My first impression of X-Trail must be the image of a concrete off-road urban SUV formed by the previous two generations of models. The tough appearance and an independent four-wheel drive operation knob made the X-Trail stand out among the urbanized products at that time, especially the searchlight on the roof, which is really a good design.
Of course, the hard-core image of the first two generations of X-Trail did not bring it too much sales in the era of urban SUVs where the mean was considered beautiful. On the contrary, the third-generation X-Trail, which has become bigger and more comfortable, Successfully brought X-Trail into the mainstream market.
Now, X-Trail has ushered in the fourth-generation model. When the fourth-generation model debuted, the market vane of SUVs in this city has changed again. Therefore, on the fourth-generation Qijun, the hardcore Qijun back then is back.
Judging from the information released by the US version of Rogue, the new generation of Nissan X-Trail has obviously added more hard-core elements to the overall shape. The whole vehicle has become more handsome, and the shape has also become more square. In terms of the design of the bottom part, just like the traditional hard-core off-road vehicles, the new generation of X-Trail has also raised the body slightly, changing the heavy and bloated image of the traditional urban SUV.
One noteworthy detail is that the wheel mouth of the new generation of X-Trail provides the wheel with a large enough upstroke compression space, and the image of the wheel mouth is no longer a simple circle. This also means that the suspension stroke of the new generation of X-Trail will be larger than that of the previous generation model, and the increase of the suspension stroke means that the off-road passing performance of the new generation of X-Trail will be better.
As for the details of the design, not surprisingly, the new generation of X-Trail adopts the split headlight design created by JUKE. After comprehensively and thoroughly breaking the focus effect of the headlights, the technological sense of the front of the car has been refined. Of course, from a personal point of view, it may take some time for the market to adapt to this image.
Inside the vehicle, the design of the new generation of X-Trail is an addition to the comfort and spaciousness of the previous generation model, which enhances the sense of luxury. The interior atmosphere, fabrics and sense of technology have all been comprehensively improved. The zero-gravity seat is also retained as always. With such an interior atmosphere, the product power of the new generation of X-Trail will not be discounted.
In terms of power, the new generation of X-Trail continues the combination of the current model’s 2.5L naturally aspirated and CVT gearbox, and the four-wheel drive system is also consistent with the current model. Well, I’m afraid this will be a little lacking in highlights. What do you say?
