Spy shots of the fourth-generation Nissan X-Trail have leaked online, which completely reveal its exterior and interior styling. The SUV will be showcased globally later this year.
The leaked images reveal the two-tier split-LED headlamps setup, a larger V-motion grille and a new bumper. Overall, the fascia is that of a butch SUV. Around the back, it features new LED taillights and a tweaked bumper. The boxy exteriors give it a muscular stance.
The cabin is an all-new affair with a new dashboard layout that is highlighted by a large free-standing infotainment system. It also gets a fully-digital instrument cluster and the front occupants also have an option of wireless charging. Other features include a panoramic sunroof, paddle-shifters and multiple driving modes.
As far as powertrains are concerned, we expect the fourth-gen Nissan X-Trail to continue with the existing petrol and diesel engines. Nissan is also expected to offer a hybrid powertrain at a later stage.
Nissan is undecided on whether it will launch the new X-Trail in India. The Japanese carmaker briefly introduced the second-gen X-Trail in India between 2009-2014. If launched in India, the Nissan X-Trail will rival the Skoda Kodiaq and the Volkswagen Tiguan AllSpace.
