Nissan X-Trail

The Nissan X-Trail is a compact or mid-size crossover SUV produced by the Japanese automaker Nissan since 2001. It is now considered a mid-size crossover SUV for its length gain in its third generation.

Nissan X-Trail design concept is located in the "city four-wheel drive". This is the result of Nissan's constantly subdividing markets and adjustment. From the design point of view, this car is a compromise of the market. At the annual British Fleet World magazine, X-Trail for two consecutive years won the best four-wheel drive vehicle title.

X-TRAIL "--- the" X "represents a 4 × 4 vehicle challenge." TRAIL" is on behalf of the wheel track, the rough road and off-road terrain. These two elements combined, “X-TRAIL” representative novel 4 × 4 car. “novelty” of the whole pattern is that ALL MODE four-wheel drive system, which is controlled by computer, in the city, rain and snow poor road conditions, and the like under extreme circumstances can be chosen 2WD, Auto and 4WD lock mode, etc., methods of operation is relatively simple. it sounds good, but there is a deficiencies, which is that a real-time four-wheel drive off-road system without preparing low gear. Although reducing costs in the fuel economy, but without independent suspension and afterburner box design, It has essentially different with the traditional hardcore four-wheel drive, that is, in a real bad road conditions, disadvantages will emerge.

Trail's dashboard design is personalized. On the whole panel, it is relatively far from the sight of the driver, you must move your head a little to see it clearly. It might be a "ingenious design " to prevent drivers maintaining a single position. X-Trail performance is satisfactory. X-Trail has more advanced technology and equipment, such as advanced uphill start assist system, Hill Descent Control system, B-LSD and instantaneous yaw control system, vehicle dynamic equilibrium system (VDC). With intelligent all-wheel-drive system that matches the pattern is the world's leading Nissan Xtronic-CVT continuously variable transmission. Good operating smoothness and fuel economy; gearbox oil maintenance-free life, low maintenance costs.

X-Trail adapts a new chassis and suspension system, rear suspension with advanced multi-link independent structure, comparing to the link pillar structure of the first generation model, handling has been significantly improved; ground clearance is up to 200 mm or more, not fully take into account the urban and rural roads, and also offers excellent off-road capability. The suspension can be effectively filtered out bumps. However, during high-speed cornering, body appears tilt inevitably.

Nissan X-Trail also has a unique "ZONEBODY" regional body structure; the body structure will be divided into the whole body energy absorption and safe areas. The impact of the damage can be minimized, providing strong security for the occupants.
