Nissan X-Trail (2022-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Hugely practical	e-Power model is not as economical as you might hope
Lots of safety equipment	No plug-in hybrid option
Comfortable on long journeys	Some rivals offer more space in the third-row seats

Quick Summary

The Nissan X-Trail (2022-present) is a family-focused SUV, available in both five and seven-seat configurations, emphasising interior versatility and extensive standard safety technology. It features a unique e-Power hybrid system, where a 1.5-litre petrol engine acts as a generator for the electric motor(s) that drive the wheels, offering a smooth, EV-like driving experience without plug-in capability. This model prioritises comfort and practicality, making it a strong contender in the competitive SUV market.

With a generous 575 litres of boot space in five-seat mode and wide-opening rear doors for easy access, the X-Trail excels in practicality, though third-row access requires some dexterity. Its ride is calm and comfortable, even on larger alloys, with light and predictable steering. While the e-Power's real-world economy might not always hit official figures (typically 36-42mpg), competitive pricing and strong residuals make it an attractive option. The infotainment system is functional, and it boasts class-leading safety equipment across the range.

Best for: Families needing versatility (5/7 seats), buyers prioritising comfort and safety, those wanting an EV-like drive without plugging in, buyers looking for good residuals.

Not ideal for: Buyers expecting top-tier infotainment graphics, those needing more third-row space than some rivals, or drivers prioritising absolute best fuel economy from a hybrid.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the X-Trail if: You're a family needing versatile seating (5 or 7 seats), you prioritise comfort and safety, you want an EV-like driving experience without plug-in hassle, or you're looking for good residuals.

Consider alternatives if: You expect top-tier infotainment graphics, require more third-row space than some rivals, or prioritise the absolute best fuel economy from a hybrid.

Competitive Position: The Nissan X-Trail (2022-present) is a compelling choice in the family SUV segment, particularly for those seeking a versatile five or seven-seater with a strong emphasis on comfort, safety, and practicality. Its unique e-Power hybrid system offers a refined, EV-like driving experience, differentiating it from rivals. While its real-world fuel economy might not always outperform some competitors and the third-row access isn't the easiest, its competitive pricing, strong residuals, and comprehensive standard safety features make it a very sensible and well-rounded option for families.
