Just look at the face of the Nissan X-Trail recently revised this face. "Almost" does not change from its predecessor.
Even so, it turns out grille has been changed. Although you have to think hard where the location changes. Similarly, the light clusters which appear more luxurious. For the type of CVT 2.0 is still added bonus Xenon lamp. Also changed the front bumper with a black diffuser and air outlet grille on it.
In addition, 17 alloy rims with new design replaces the old 16-inch model. The design is futuristic and gives the impression of 3D while spinning. At the rear, the design of the lights on the pillars above slightly changed the design, looks more sturdy and prominent, with a row of LEDs beautiful.
Cabin memorable, elegant impression burst with color black domination. Even some of the dash and door panels that had been generalized to black silver. Others on the instrument panel design is more attractive and informative, as well as air-conditioned glovebox and a USB connection.
Okay, then what about the experience berkendaranya? Because only a facelift, no touch on the drivetrain and suspension. Slam soft suspension that became the trademark X-Trail still feels comfortable on the road. Fun, nimble control we can still feel the same.
Application of the transmission belt of steel making machine feels slow response. Moreover, if we drive with eco-style. It took moments before the car can move faster. Apesnya if you are just moving at a red light. We guarantee a car horn from behind will bark.
But that does not mean he is without power. Treat the car more aggressive, then the logic control will change the response of the engine and transmission. Engine performance was more contained, the transmission to a higher round, and with the migratory patterns more readily.
Evidently, the acceleration figures are inscribed counted satisfactory. He was able to complete the acceleration 0-100 km / h in 11.54 seconds. Faster than the Honda CR-V 2.0 5-speed automatic is 12.39 seconds. Even 0.41 seconds faster than the Chevrolet Captiva 2.0 Diesel has 320 Nm of torque.
This is evidence of Nissan's expertise in gathering machine. CVTC technology with a compact balancer shafts in the engine 1997 cc 4-cylinder blends nicely with a smart steel belt transmission which has a 6-speed manual mode.
It should be noted, the power generated only 138 dk, losing much of the CR-V that reached 150 horsepower. Although the X-Trail superior torque with 198 Nm vs. 190 Nm. Another positive outcome. Highway fuel consumption of the X-Trail reaches 14.7 km / liter, while for the city in the range of 8.5 km / liter.
It is rather obvious why Nissan did not think too much about the engine and suspension in this facelift model. Driving experience is still delicious served his predecessor. While the proposed revisions sweetener display to remain competitive.
