Nissan will commence reservations for the X-Trail in India on 26 July 2024 for a token amount of Rs 1 lakh, ahead of the launch in August. The mid-size SUV has split headlamps, a dark chrome-finished V-Motion grille, rounded wheel arches, LED daytime running lights, 20-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, and wraparound taillamps. It comes with a 360-degree camera, traction control, automatic wipers, and hill-start assist for safety. In India, Nissan will offer the X-Trail with a seven-seat configuration. The third row has 50/50 split-folding and reclining options, while the second row features 40/20/40 split-folding, sliding, and reclining choices. Given that the X-Trail will be a CBU, you can expect it to cost higher somewhere around Rs 40 lakh (ex-showroom). Read on for more details.
