What is the Emission Standard of the X-Trail?
3 Answers
The emission standard of the X-Trail is China V. Below is an introduction to the X-Trail: 1. Dimensions: The X-Trail is a compact SUV under Dongfeng Nissan. The vehicle measures 4675mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1722mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2706mm. It is equipped with a 2.5L inline-four engine featuring CVTC (Continuous Variable Valve Timing Control), delivering a maximum horsepower of 180 HP and a maximum torque of 245 Nm. 2. Design Style: Inheriting Nissan SUV's consistent styling, the X-Trail features bold lines and is paired with 215/65R16 tires, giving the vehicle a spirited and robust appearance. 3. Interior: The interior is exquisitely designed with a clear and intuitive barrel-style instrument panel. It includes a digital 6-disc high-fidelity theater CD+AUDIO sound system, intelligent remote key system, intelligent voice navigation system, ASCD cruise control system, rearview camera, side-view system, multimedia entertainment system, anti-glare interior rearview mirror, and exterior temperature display. 4. Powertrain: The X-Trail is powered by a QR25 engine with a displacement of 2.5L, equipped with a CVTC system, producing 180 HP and a torque of 245 Nm. It inherits the traditional advantages of Nissan engines, operating extremely quietly.
As a driver with ten years of experience in Japanese cars, let me tell you that the emissions of the X-Trail really depend on the year. Models before 2015 are mostly China IV, those from 2017 to 2019 are generally China V, and the new models now are all China VI. Two years ago, when I helped a relative pick a car, I specifically checked—the 2021 X-Trail lineup is all China VI b, which is much stricter than the China V standard. If you're looking at used cars, you need to be extra careful—some cities don’t even allow China IV cars inside the outer ring roads. Last month, my friend’s 2013 model got stuck during a transfer because the emissions standards were strictly enforced. My advice? Just check the emission info on the nameplate on the passenger door frame—it’s clearly stated there. If you can’t be bothered to check, just pull a report from the DMV—that’s the most accurate.
After 15 years of car repair experience, I've found that determining the emission standard (Guo Ji) for the Nissan X-Trail mainly depends on its production date. Last year, I handled a 2016-registered 2.0L model that still had a National IV (Guo Si) yellow label on its dashboard. Now when the new owner comes for maintenance, I notice the chassis is equipped with a particulate filter - a clear National VI (Guo Liu) configuration. I must remind you to pay attention to regional policy differences. For instance, Hainan province banned the transfer of National V vehicles last year. The most reliable way to check emission standards is to input the vehicle's license number on the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website - it's far more accurate than checking configuration sheets.
