The X-TRAIL's 132kW, 2.5 litre petrol engine has just about as much grunt as you could ever want in a Compact 4WD. X-TRAIL’s latest generation engine is one of the largest in its class.

Compact, lightweight and designed for high power engines, gearshifting feels sweet and responsive due to its double cone synchronisers. You’ll find it beautifully light and easy to use.

An advanced E-Flow lock-up torque converter enhances the efficiency of the transmission and improves driving performance. Extending the lock-up area helps deliver improved economy.

Continuous Variable Valve Timing Control (CVTC) delivers great on-road acceleration, overtaking performance and top speed, together with excellent fuel economy.

Nissan Induction Control System (NICS), boosts torque at all speeds by the use of a variable induction valve.

The QR25DE engine has a compact balancer shaft that significantly reduces noise and vibration, giving an exceptionally quiet, comfortable drive.

The system opens and closes the throttle electronically instead of using a conventional cable.

TCS operates at all speeds and limits drive-wheel slip (wheel spin) under most conditions, improving driver control of the vehicle in slippery conditions as well as on dry surfaces if throttle is over-applied.
