2005 Nissan X-Trail X review from Colombia
"Good all around performer. Love the interior and exterior design much better than the Honda CRV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
The X-Trail has a good engine and is quick off the mark. The handling is good although I would like it to be a bit softer. The brakes are awesome and is the best feature along with the centered dash which is very ergonomic and easy to see. Thus far I am getting about 25 km/gallon in city driving although I have stepped hard on it to test the engine a few times.
Seats are great and the AC is excellent. Finish on the car all around is very good. I think an automatic transmission with 5 speed will be better, but the 4 speed is not bad at all.
Lack of interior illuminations for some controls like lock, right front window is unacceptable and the gas opening latch is hard to get to unless you open the door.
A good all around SUV. I have not tested the 4 x 4 system yet.
