What is the power of the X-Trail?

The maximum power of the new X-Trail 2.5 configuration parameters is stated as 137 kilowatts, while the internally stated net power is only 126 kilowatts. Introduction to car power: Car power refers to the work done by the car per unit of time. Power refers to the work done by an object per unit of time. The greater the power, the greater the torque, and the higher the pulling force of the car. Maximum power is commonly used to describe the dynamic performance of a car. Maximum power is generally expressed in horsepower (PS) or kilowatts (kW), with 1 horsepower equal to 0.735 kilowatts. Power is a physical quantity that indicates how fast an object does work. In physics, power P = work W / time t, and the unit is watts (W). Power units: Power units include kW, PS, HP, BHP, WHP, etc., as well as CV, which was previously used in Italy. Among these, kilowatts (kW) is the international standard unit, where 1 kW = 1000 W. If 1000 joules of work is done in 1 second, the power is 1 kW. In daily life, power is often colloquially referred to as horsepower, with the unit being 'horsepower,' just as torque is called 'twisting force.' In cars, the largest work machine is the engine, and the engine's power is calculated from torque.
The power output of the X-Trail is generally around 181 horsepower, which is the typical performance of its 2.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. I find this figure quite practical because when driving this car, the acceleration is smooth and fuel-efficient, making it very suitable for daily commuting. If you're concerned about torque, it's around 240 Newton-meters, making hill climbing effortless. Moreover, the power design of the X-Trail takes into account both city and highway driving, with fuel consumption well controlled, averaging about 7.8 liters per 100 kilometers. With regular maintenance, the engine is easy to maintain and rarely encounters issues. Power isn't always about higher being better; 181 horsepower already meets the needs of most families, providing stable and safe driving.
