What engine does the Nissan X-Trail use?
2 Answers
The engine of the X-Trail has excellent power performance. It operates extremely quietly, with fast throttle response. As the foot pressure increases, the RPM rises rapidly, providing sufficient power in all RPM ranges while maintaining low fuel consumption. The Nissan X-Trail uses two types of engines: 1. 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine: Paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission, it has a maximum power of 113KW, maximum horsepower of 154PS, and maximum torque of 204N·m. The fuel supply method is all direct injection. 2. 2.5-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine: Paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission, it has a maximum power of 137KW, maximum horsepower of 186PS, and maximum torque of 246N·m. The fuel supply method is all multi-point electronic injection.
I've driven the Nissan X-Trail and noticed it offers different engine options across various model years. For example, early models commonly featured a 2.0L or 2.5L naturally aspirated gasoline engine, delivering smooth power delivery in city driving with moderate fuel consumption and simple maintenance, making it ideal for daily commuting. The newer generation upgraded to a 1.5L three-cylinder VC-Turbo engine, where variable compression ratio technology enhances efficiency and acceleration at high speeds while saving fuel. The e-Power hybrid version is also popular, as the engine only generates electricity to drive the electric motor, offering quiet operation and fuel economy. Overall, the X-Trail's engines are highly reliable, with no major issues within ten years. As an owner, I recommend the 1.5L version for its high cost-performance ratio and eco-friendliness, handling both family outings and long-distance trips with ease.
