New Nissan X-TRAIL pricing revealed

The fourth-generation 2022 Nissan X-TRAIL will be priced from $36,750 plus on-road costs when it arrives in Australia from around October 2022.

This represents an increase of $6085 over the previous price-leading X-TRAIL variant powered by a 2.0-litre engine, or $4085 compared to the previous base-grade 2.5-litre version.

Pitched as a family-friendly rival to the likes of the Toyota RAV4 ($34,400) and Mazda CX-5 ($32,390), the new Nissan X-TRAIL will be available in either five-seat or seven-seat configurations across four model grades including ST, ST-L, Ti and Ti-L variants, the latter topping out at $52,990 plus ORCs.

All variants get a significant uptick in equipment levels and safety systems. LED headlights, daytime running lights and tail-lights are all fitted as standard, along with adaptive cruise control, traffic sign recognition, rear cross traffic alert, an electric park brake and paddle shifters.

Family-friendly features like such as 90-degree-opening rear doors, sliding rear seats (ST-L and above) and four USB ports are also included, but key features like a power-operated tailgate, automatic wipers, 12.3-inch central touch-screen and digital driver’s display are offered only in the up-spec Ti and Ti-L variants starting at $49,990.

The new X-TRAIL is part of Nissan’s core SUV rejuvenation, which will see all-new versions of the QASHQAI small SUV and Pathfinder large SUV arriving in Australia from around October as well.

Nissan’s fourth-gen X-TRAIL will be powered by a 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine (135kW/244Nm) that delivers an increase of 9kW of power and 18Nm of torque compared to the previous 2.5-litre engine, together with an increased towing capacity (from 1.5 to 2.0 tonnes).

The price-leading 2.0-litre engine has been deleted from the X-TRAIL range and a new hybrid powertrain will join the fun down the track.

Based on the same CMF-C platform architecture as the Mitsubishi Outlander, the new Nissan X-TRAIL is set to veer down a different hybrid path to its PHEV cousin, with Nissan officially confirming a fuel-sipping e-POWER version that’s widely expected to leverage the same plugless hybrid powertrain (140kW/330Nm) seen on the QASHQAI will be also be coming to Australia.

Nissan’s e-POWER powertrains differ to most conventional hybrids because the electric motors exclusively drive the wheels, providing EV-like propulsion, as the petrol engine serves exclusively as a battery-charging generator. It’s understood Nissan’s first X-TRAIL e-POWER hybrid will be on sale in Australia in 2023.

The entry-level Nissan X-TRAIL ST is priced at $36,750 for the 2WD five-seat version, rising to $39,790 for the seven-seat AWD variant, and comes with LED lights front and rear, plus roof rails, rear parking sensors and camera, blind spot warning and intervention systems, lane departure prevention and autonomous emergency braking (AEB) with vehicle, cyclist and pedestrian detection.

An analogue instrument cluster is joined by an 8.0-inch central touch-screen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay functionality, while 17-inch alloy wheels are included.

The Nissan X-TRAIL ST-L is priced at $43,190 for the five-seat, 2WD model, rising by $3100 to the $46,290 for the AWD seven-seat version. It gets Nissan’s much-vaunted ProPILOT semi-autonomous driving system that adds lane keep assist, along with heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, tinted windows, a 360-degree surround-view parking monitor, synthetic leather trim and 18-inch alloy wheels.

The up-spec Nissan X-TRAIL Ti is pegged at $49,990 for the five-seat AWD and is where the big digital screens come in to play. We’re talking about an ultra-wide 12.3-inch central touch-screen with sat-nav, joined by a 12.3-inch digital driver’s display, a 10.8-inch head-up display and a digital rear-view mirror.

Wireless phone charging joins the fray with the Ti model-grade, as does wireless Apple CarPlay, leather-accented seat trim, a panoramic glass sunroof and 19-inch alloy wheels. Three-zone climate control, a power-operated rear tailgate, auto wipers and adaptive headlights are also in there.

Top-spec five-seat AWD Nissan X-TRAIL Ti-L variants start at $52,990 and get everything mentioned previously in addition to premium Nappa leather seat upholstery, a Bose 10-speaker sound system, rear sunshades, remote engine start and a heated steering wheel.
