    About the Nissan X-Trail

    Last updated Dec 18, 2024

    The Nissan X-Trail will enter 2025 with minor equipment enhancements at no additional cost, while the flagship model will see a modest price reduction.

    Since the fourth-generation X-Trail launched in Australia in 2022, Nissan has made minimal changes, with prices remaining largely stable apart from a $500 increase in July 2024.

    For 2025, the entry-level Nissan X-Trail ST now includes approach unlocking and walkaway locking as its new feature.

    Higher-spec X-Trail ST variants receive more extensive upgrades. They feature a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen, wireless smartphone mirroring and charging, and satellite navigation. Previously, these features were exclusive to the N-Trek with its rugged design and the Ti variant, which now also gains a hands-free power tailgate from the top-tier Ti-L.

    The flagship X-Trail Ti-L benefits only from enhanced proximity entry and wireless Android Auto, but the e-Power version's price has been reduced by $800.

    These equipment upgrades come as Nissan aims to climb the sales charts in the highly competitive mid-size SUV segment, which is dominated by the Toyota RAV4 and includes rivals such as the Mitsubishi Outlander, Mazda CX-5, Kia Sportage, and Hyundai Tucson.

    We believe the 2025 X-Trail will be in good supply for the foreseeable future.

    2025 Nissan X-Trail Interior

    The X-Trail’s interior is practical and well-constructed, featuring high-quality materials throughout. The design is modern and generally appealing, although the two-tone black-and-brown treatment on the dashboard and doors is a bold choice. The colours don’t quite complement each other, and while the contrast is noted, an alternative colour scheme would be welcomed.

    Opting for the Ti variant offers an attractive black and pale grey two-tone interior, though practicality may be a concern with light colours, especially for families with young children.

    The cabin materials elevate the X-Trail as one of the better-appointed in its segment. Soft-touch surfaces adorn the sides of the centre console, front door tops, and the centre armrest, while hard plastics are confined to the lower parts of the dashboard and doors. The interior includes tasteful stitching details, inserts resembling grey open-pore wood (albeit glossy), and brushed metal-look trim on the doors and centre console.

    Gloss black trim is used sparingly but includes sections of the steering wheel, which can be prone to smudges, dust, and scratches. Blank switches, often a reminder of not having the top-spec model, are minimal and discreetly positioned to the right of the steering wheel.

    The overall build quality feels robust, except for the gear shifter, which lacks a premium feel. The centre stack maintains a minimalist aesthetic while retaining physical climate controls, a practical touch.

    The front storage options are excellent, with a practical shelf beneath the centre console that can accommodate handbags and door bottle holders that can fit 1.5L bottles. The centre console bin features a Mercedes-Benz-style double flap opening with ample space and includes a moulded plastic tray, which is helpful for coins.

    In the second row, there’s generous space in all dimensions, with only a minor driveline hump that doesn’t significantly affect passenger comfort. Amenities include two USB-C outlets, map pockets, air vents, and a fold-down armrest with cupholders. The second row has two ISOFIX and three top-tether anchor points for child seats.

    The third row, however, is strictly for children. If you are about 180cm tall, the headroom may be lacking, and even with the second row adjusted forward, seating can be uncomfortable with knees pressed against the seatbacks. Accessing the third row is also cumbersome, making it unsuitable for elderly passengers, especially with child seats installed in the second row. There are no child seat anchor points in the third row, limiting its usability for the youngest passengers.

    No air vents are in the third row, similar to the Honda CR-V, and amenities are limited to cupholders. Nissan states a 465-litre cargo capacity for seven-seat models with the first and second rows in place, measured to the roofline, but does not provide figures for the cargo space with the third row in use or with the second row folded down. With all three rows up, cargo space is limited to a small duffel bag or a few grocery bags. The third-row seats can be folded by pulling straps, and a space-saver spare wheel is under the luggage area floor.

    2025 Nissan X-Trail Infotainment

    Given the trend towards larger touchscreens, the 8.0-inch unit in the ST-L can appear relatively modest. The camera resolution has improved over previous Nissan models but still lags behind competitors like GWM. However, the infotainment system is user-friendly, with clear graphics and the inclusion of both USB-A and USB-C ports.

    One minor inconvenience is the absence of rain-sensing wipers, a feature reserved for the Ti variant.

    Another issue is with the instrument cluster. The analogue gauges are visually appealing, and the digital display between them is easy to read. However, the screen defaults to a maintenance menu upon startup, even if you’ve set it to display the digital speedometer. Engaging cruise control also overrides the speedometer, requiring manual adjustments to restore it. Although you can configure the display to show both the speed readout and cruise control simultaneously, the settings are somewhat buried. The digital instrument cluster available in the N-Trek and higher trims is significantly more user-friendly.

    How does the 2025 Nissan X-Trail drive?

    Our expert take on Nissan X-Trail drivability.

    The standard petrol-powered X-Trail is fitted with a conventional drivetrain, and the e-Power is slightly more complex. Its petrol engine is mated to a motor generator and an inverter, which charges the lithium-ion battery pack that feeds the electric drive motors.

    2025 Nissan X-Trail vs other SUVs to consider

    The new Nissan X-Trail shares its underpinnings with the Mitsubishi Outlander, and is therefore a close rival for it.

    It also takes on the Toyota RAV4, Mazda CX-5, Honda CR-V, and Volkswagen Tiguan in the hotly-contested mid-sized SUV class.
