Where is the keyhole of the Nissan X-Trail?

X-Trail's key ignition hole is located on the driver's side door. Key ignition method: When the remote key is out of battery, press the remote key close to the one-button start button, and the vehicle can be started by pressing the button. Generally, the car may display key error or key not detected alarm reminders, which can be ignored in such cases. Keyless start method: When the driver approaches the car with the key in their pocket, the key and the car begin to exchange preset command information via radio waves. Subsequently, the car's locking system, security system, and engine control system are all activated.
The keyhole of the Nissan X-Trail is hidden under a small cover on the driver's side door handle. Gently pry open the cover to reveal it. Having driven several generations of the X-Trail, I noticed that older models had an ignition keyhole near the steering wheel, but newer versions have switched to keyless start. Nowadays, the mechanical key is mainly used for emergency door access, such as when the remote key's battery dies. The absence of an ignition keyhole in the car actually makes things more convenient—just carry the smart key, press the brake, and hit the start button. Some owners keep the mechanical key in the glove compartment as a backup, but it's advisable to carry it with you, as anyone might encounter a situation where the car doors suddenly lock.
