- Nissan X-Trail has underwent a facelift so subtle, you'd be excused for not noticing any change. There are some small cosmetic tweaks, but the main change are the new engines (because emissions). You can order your 2020 Nissan X-Trail with a 1.7 litre 150 hp diesel or a 1.3 160 hp petrol motor. Nissan axed the the 1.6 and 2-litre diesels, as well as the 1.6 163 hp petrol engine. It's more than enough on a school-run. The Nissan X-Trail is relatively affordable, spacious inside, and can be ordered as a 7-seater.

Thanks for the review - i found it very helpful
Nice to see you have started the new year in a jolly laid back way. Don't shout at me but : happy new year Marek. 😨😏🚀
I own this car for almost two years. I am more than satisfied with it! Truly now, are you kidding with your review? The car is excellent in any condition I ve had. It is well build and is one of the best family car. Ok, it is not very fast, but you don’t buy it for racing (unless you are an idiot).
Ps: before xtrail I had two BMWs The car has nothing to envy!
If you think to buy it, just Buy it! It worth every cent
Right now i have 2015 f10 serie and 2019 1,6d Xtrail.
It is completely different cars...xtrail is much better for space, as a driver you have a better overview of traffic and steering is very light, but BMW is better in any other way.
It is soundproof, much better to drive (even though, Nissan is actually easier to park in the city), iDrive is unbeaten when it comes to infotainment and it is just a car that you feel so much better sitting in...
Of course, purposes are different (that's why we have 2 so different cars), but if I would need to choose only one, Nissan Xtrail wouldn't be a choice.
Does it have fitted Renault engine? Did you have constantly mechanical problems or breakdowns?
Do you drive off road or just asphalt ?
I have this car 2018, 2.5 l engine. And iam so happy with it. Fuel consumption is great. I ve driven it sometimes in the sands (off-road) and it just did well with me. For two years and a ½ no breakdowns 👍
I have one as well since 2019 and is an excellent car, for me is fast enough, maybe it has a slow acceleration when stop, but when driving the acceleration is quicker 😎
Now that's what I call a great review.....warts and all. Well done Marek :-)
I'm not gonna even test drive it it after watching this! Marek is a great time saver to eliminate candidate cars to buy before even seeing it
One of the best motor reviews I've seen recently.
Enjoyed Marek talking about turning the heat down to 16.5, sat there in his thick hoodie and Arctic-proof jacket 😂. Great, helpful review.
It was cold during filming. The script was written regardless of clothing.
I rented an X-Trail for my holiday weeks ago. I guarantee that this is the most honest review for this car, especially its power and cornering.
Thanks!
Sarcastic and down to earth reviews are the most sutisfying to watch. That's why I'm still subscribed. Creds for showing bad quality aspects of the car. I think it is imported as a honest car reviewer to pay attention to this kind of stuff. Also we, your watchers as potentional buyers appreciate it. Best wishes for in the 2020!. PS: any chance of reviewing a PHEV from top/most popular brands any soon?
Yes :)
Before the refreshed 2020 model, my parents bought a 2018 N-Connecta X-trail with the 1.6 DIG-T with a 6 speed manual and 2WD, I also didn't knew about the shark fin antenna wasn't sealed properly as I was completely perplexed so this review really helped me out about the antenna thing 😂.
Jokes aside, did they have any leaks or is it me just worrying too much?
@@MarekDrivesENG I tried to jiggle the antenna gently but no water was gushing out, as I was watching the video especially this particular car the black inner line was lifting up, I don't know if it's an issue with the car your testing or it probably that the seal wasn't sealed properly but it still is worrying.
We have a 2018 version and its perfect. 2.0 motor and an automatic gear shift. Great even when wanting to drive fast
I've got a 2.5l version
If you still have it, how is the CVT automatic gearbox after a few years? Any problems?
That blank stare at 2:43.
Thanks marek, I have a. 2.0 2017 Trail , was thinking or moving to the 2020 , I’m looking elsewhere now!
good job m8
Very nice suv nissan x trail I have the rogue it drives great in good on gas
The new generation of this car (Nissan Rogue as called in USA) is currently being tested. It will have a new modern interior befitting today's standard
With electric seats you can get an exact position which is important to little people like me, sometimes I find I need a position halfway between the notches on some cars without.
nice vid and review man :)
I bought this one, but 2.5 liters petrol. Not bad
Some good inf o . Thx
Sounds like a bit of a hater. Probably works for a rival company. I Love my Nissan Xtrail
Do the test of the facelifted Kadjar.
With the new engines and a bit more modern cabine, it’s great value for money.
True I have a 2015 X trail manual , owned since 2016, cheap to run & buy, no issues.. Wife has Kadjar auto, great car.
Germany 2018 xtrail hat 1.6 Petrol shifter 2020 has a 1.8 Petrol with an automatic.
My wife is seriously thinking of buying one.
Family consisting of one wife and one baby girl, sometimes a granny traveling with us. Had a debate beforehand with my mates, who urged me to go for a 5 series touring, but I still chose a sedan. Nothing has beaten it yet, it's comfy enough, sporty enough and the boot swallows entire planets. Economy is OK as well, getting 6.2 l/100 km with an average speed of 56 km/h.
Touring would beat it. 570 l with seats up. ;-)
Nothing as in I didn't encounter a situation in which I needed to leave stuff at home because it wouldn't fit. Of course the touring is better at carrying stuff, but I personally don't fancy it.
You remind me of Clarkson but it’s obvious that you’re not trying to be like him. BIG THUMBS UP. 👍👍 Excellent review 👏👏
I am fat, and ageing fast, so who knows how I'll end up :)
Marek Drives 😂🤣 Keep up the good work. 👍👍
When I hear Nissan I remember Almera, Primera. Quite decent cars for their days. Now I hear about poor sound insulation, questionably quality. Strange, because it's 2020. By the way during winter water under so called sophisticated antenna can freeze and then antenna may fall off:)
The car is not made for villagers in Poland that flash lights to overtake
Thanks Marek great honest review. I’ll look at the XC60 and the Discovery sport I think.
Definitely more up-market, than the X-Trail.
@@MarekDrives XC60 looking like the favourite as I’ve had a 2012 V40 kept it nearly 5 years and did 108000 miles, probably the nicest saloon I’ve ever had. The x trail also looks too much like the qashqai.
Anybody with a 2019 1.3 Auto Petrol? Thoughts?
I like comfortable cars, but also with good drive. Watching this review, I think X-Trail is not for me. I had Golf 7,now I drive C-Trek, which is Volkswagen Bora AllTrack in China. Thanks Marek. Dislike is for the car, not you.
Looks pretty nice, but it does not stand out. I like station wagons best.
My car its a diesel 1.7 motor and automatic gearbox it's a good car
wait r u polish because I am but I live in ireland,ale super
I owe 2016 xtrail. The nissan platform is old and thus heavy. New platform version of xtrail shold be lighter and yes seats do not have memory function and It sucks.
I had the misfortune of owning a 2017. I wish I had seen your review before I made a purchase! Nissan placed all the switches in the last place anyone would expect, by the driver's knee, or hidden under the door pulls. Ours had a mysterious suspension squeak after about 6 months, and then it disappeared just as mysteriously a few months later. The factory battery expired exactly at the 2 year mark. That's about the time the transmission started to whine. Sometimes the driver's window wouldn't roll down. All we had to do to stain the cloth seats was look at them.
I suggest a new motto for Nissan: "Engineered to last... long enough"
Suspension squeaks could be a result cold weather. Original Bilstein shocks on my MX-5 NC start squeaking as soon as it gets below 7 degrees Celsius, and they go on like that until late spring, when it gets warmer again. I had two of them replaced due to a recall on a different issue, but the new ones squeak as well. The weather's too cold for the princess :)
As far as everything else you're describing, it sounds like a real piece of junk. Thanks for sharing!
Hello Marek,is the 1.6 tekna petrol engine renault or pure nissan motor?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_MR_engine#MR16DDT
Look its a biggish car for the money and it does have its merits but if i had a choice it would be the Mazda cx5
Bro we buy the new Nissan xtrail in pearl white
I guess it depends on how many kids you have and how u like to drive. For me the Civic was a great family car, 17000 Eur with all bells and whistles i need, lots of room in the back, lots of room in the boot and pleasant driving experience. With 2 kids i would always go for a hatchback style car, i just don't like SUV's but understand the appeal for some people.
Carlos Ghosn, the former Nissan chairman who fled Japan while facing four criminal charges, has vowed to clear his name and said his detention was the result of the actions of "a handful of unscrupulous, vindictive individuals at Nissan" - I think that those individuals were X-Trail owners.
LOL
Most efficient heater... you mean the heat system is not working!
It's a great car! I have Nissan Xtrail 2014 S and I've been using for 6 years now. And still runs smooth, super reliable car. I've installed Android head unit on it and I like it. If you want to see my Android head unit, check my video.
cada año va recuciendo te tamaño el xtrail , una pena
nissan europe is with renault engines diffrent then nissan america and australia.
Latest generation of diesel engines need premium fuels to perform properly.
When the DPF is regenerating, fuel consumption increases and performance falls. Unfortunately there is no warning from the dash to alert you to the fact the DPF is regenerating..
5 litres per 100km is easily achieved with BP Ultimate in this car.
I will buy new Nissan X-trail
Marek będzie focus :) czy wygonili cię z salonu forda?
Ford Polska jakoś nie uważa za stosowne ze mną współpracować.
Oh dear! What a lovely looking load of rubbish from Nissan. Good honest review though. Considering this model has been with us since 2013 and what a looker it was when it first came out. It’s the big sister to the Qashqai and that still look fresh. Ok it’s age has stood up well but just you wait and see what Nissan part of Renault’s replacement for the old Xtrail will be like. 2020/21 Nissan Xtrail will be great if they don’t scrimp on their engine output. I’d love to see a V6 3ltr diesel transplanted in the engine bay but I’d have more luck pissing in the wind seeing that happening. Come on Nissan, give VW Touareg a run for their money in the power ratings.
Hi marek can you do a review on the new 2021 nissan x trail thanks Lee.
I think we're going to get it in Poland Q3 2022 or later.
“Mach one in his rep mobile” 😂
Just seems badly built and without real selling points. I guess the price is a selling point but you can buy a 1 year old demo car for the same and it's gonna be better.
I was excited about this car until I stumbled upon your review, is it that bad, it sounds like you hated it with passion..
I fucking laughed at this 7:50 - 8:00
haha, tailgating champion in his what mobile?? Oh man, that was funny.
Rep-mobile :-)
@@MarekDrives haha, what's a rep mobile? OMG I watched the polish version to see if that was a translation
Sales rep car. As in a very popular fleet car. Sales reps around here are notorious for driving like dicks.
I guess a nondescript rental car would be the best way to picture a rep-mobile (as in the most bland fleet car you can imagine), but we're still missing the "driving like a dick" part. Hence I went with the tailgating champion. Which is something I stole from the Pan-Arabia Enquirer t-shirt :)
i prefer an suv to a minivan. suv's can go off road
one of my biggest mistake of my life,2 years ago i decided to buy one of this car now i have put it on for sale i have found it unreliable and boring after couple years of driving it
Does it have fitted Renault engine? Did you have constantly mechanical problems or breakdowns?
@@khalilayman288 it has Renault batter, in period of 2 years battery failed satnave failed stop/start failed front camera failed twice car dead on the road it came to complete stop then engine restarted it self I have place an order for Peugeot 5008 last week just waiting for delivery avoid Nissan cvt transmission is terrible and electronical its worse then mechanical
Same scenario, also got mine two years ago, a very bad idea! After this one, no more Nissan (Renault) ever..
@@alexanderriess9209 Rubbish car it is, I have feeling we've been robbed by carlos ghosen Lol
Hooman Hoomani I have had one for almost 2 years, putting 15k miles a year, NO problems. At all.
It’s really very annoying seeing that all the car companies reducing the cost of making a model in order to increase their profit. And in the end the result is an ugly car, poor quality everywhere and accessories from the past decade. And I haven’t mentioned the price that is totally absurd
My main car is a Skoda Superb 190 DSG sportline hatch but due to a tech fault. I was to day given the Xtrail Nconnecta ( I think) in diesel. I thought previously that xtrails were full of tech , looked good and drove good. Hmm in my opinion , no. It wallows , lacks power , the steering is poor and the cabin is way too low rent. Small screen with a total lack of modern function. The car does look good but its miles away from anything out of the VW range including Skoda. Sure , if you drive slowly and carefully it does the job. A poor cousin of the previous models
that 1.3 engine doesnt sound great
No blue colour red colour will be Nice ok😀
They sold you a donkey mate. You should have realised when the steering wheel was on the wrong side. Johnny plonker!
In the US and Canada, the rogue still sells very well. I drove one as a rental car and it's awful.
I get these (and smaller Rogue Sport) as rentals all the time. I don't think they are awful at all. They are not class-leading in any respect, but given their discount (usually thousands of dollars) to Honda and Toyota, I can see why people buy them. The ride is smooth and quiet and the interior is roomy. Enthusiats whine about the CVT, but if you don't drive it like an idiot (it is a family CUV, not a BMW M car afterall), it's completely transparent.
That happens when you buy a Renault.
Wow, this must a complete _SLUG_ with those tiny motors you get in Poland. Here in North America, we get 2.5L petrol with about 170-180hp: no speed demon but fine. And our motor still gets >30mpg (less than 8 litre/100km). Where are yours manufactured? Here they are made in USA, not in Japan.
I assume it's made in one of Nissan's Far Easter plants.
When you say >30mpg, do you mean city or highway? Because driving at a constant speed for a couple hundred miles you're going to get much better result in this one.
Marek Drives 30mpg combined city and highway. I’m not surprised your tiny petrol has better economy.
It's not that simple. Smaller engines tend to do well in a limited rev/speed band. A larger displacement engine is usually significantly more efficient at high speed. Which begs the question, do we need large displacement engines at all (besides specific tasks, where power and torque are needed, like maybe in pickup trucks and off-roaders)? In most cases the speed limit is 120-140 km/h, so a V8 or V12 basically idles at that speed :)
Your 2.5l petrol is naturally aspirated which means it has absolutely no torque below 4000 rpm. It's also paired with the rubbish CVT transmission (which has reliability issues). I'd take turbocharged gas or diesel engine with some low end grunt and manual transmission any day.
Also fuel consumption numbers are completely incomparable between both continents, Europeans accelerate harder, they have to accelerate more often, highway speeds are also higher. The most popular number for US X-Trail in spritmonitor.de (German/cross European equivalent of fuelly.com) is 10,5l/100km which translates to 22,4 mpg US. Meanwhile for European X-Trail 1.6T 163HP (1.3t just came out) it's between 7,6 and 8,1l/100km which means 29-31mpg and that engine pulls quite nicely.
Marek Drives Definitely true in Europe where one is not getting up to 100kph except to cruise on the motorway for 3 hours. The U.S. is just BIGGER. Here it is common for a trip to involve “city” stop and go traffic as well as the need to quickly accelerate to 120kph and then back down to 0 and then back up again. Those tiny motors are not ideal for such use which is why we have a 2.5L petrol in the same car where you can accept a 1.5L diesel.
Sarcastically: Renault 44 kEuro....
@@christianronn5301 Ir`s a same this days....Even Lada belongs to Renault-Nissan
From start to end you haven't said anything good about this SUV, why make a review if you hate it, it might be another company's gain
I said what I think is good and bad about this car. It is possible that what I think is good is - in your opinion - just as bad, but that's not my fault you think this car is crap and I cannot convince you otherwise.
3:08 what a garbage ... 2020 no usb ... 20+ year old audi have cigaret lighter port in back
3:21 what???
Why u don't tell obvious cliche about defects?
Shit reviewers say "its pre-production car, your will be fine". # end of sarcasm.
GJ, great review.
Garbage transmission on an otherwise good car, a friends work had 5 with a 100% failure before trade in time.
Took my Subaru Forester to the garage last year for a set of New tyres , got chatting to the mechanic and he said he'd had a NISSAN rep in that day .....I asked what was he driving ? .....the mechanic said a Subaru Outback. ...
...when you test cars but don't know shit about cars...
It looks like chicken cage
boot
Don’t but , waste of money
Well we understand why this car is so cheap.
Resume: I don't like this SUV.😆
Duster is a better car
It's smaller, and has no 7-seater option. It's different. Also, I don't think the current engine lineup is enough to achieve the 95g CO2 average, so the Duster is likely to become very expensive very soon.
Acording to this test this car is overpriced pos. In 2020 package.
I do not understand how this model can compete with VW, KIA, Peugeot or any other. It is so behind in all aspects and has just no purpose to exist in the market at all. The last hope for Japanese quality seems is lost as well. I guess manufacture is relying on some group of buyers that have huge inertia in decision making, have no access to youtube, or try to be original making inadequate choice.
What a depressing vehicle. Who buys this mediocre thing and do they live long enough to talk about it?
I'm looking for a car, what is the perfect car do you recommend?
Man that's ugly
To be honest it is the least favorite car that I’ve ever driven, just nothing special about it really
Sounds like a bit of a hater. Probably works for a rival company. I Love my Nissan Xtrail
