#262 of 331 7 SEATS by wheelz4 Jan 14, 2004 (6:53 am)
Looks like Nissan is making the re-designed Pathfinder their 7 seater along with the gargantuan Pathfinder Armada, as even the Murano, which is larger than the X-Trail, is only a 5 seater. Anyway, The X-Trail will fill the sub-$30,000(CDN) void in Nissan's lineup that currently has no car-based compact SUV's, sport wagons, mini-minivan's or sport hatches of any sort.
#263 of 331 Dated? by ropedart Jan 15, 2004 (11:46 pm)
OK the trans is good but really it does look dated next to the CRV. I don't even like the look of the front of the CRV (looks like the Civic front end which is no accident). The rear of the CRV looks much more refined than the X-Trail's. X-Trail interior is interesting. The model fills a gap in Nissan for sure but needs a big styling update. Why has the Pathfinder gone so cushy? Remember the first one?
#264 of 331 Pathfinder by artdecho Jan 17, 2004 (6:15 am)
Actually, the Pathy has gone back to a truck frame instead of unibody, but yeah, it does look a lot more upscale. I guess if you don't want cushy, buy an X-Terra, and if you don't want a two ton gas guzzling truck, then maybe an X-Trail will do. It IS pretty conservative looking...I'm hoping it looks a bit better in person. I like the Element-like scrubbable interior...power and torque look good...hope the fuel economy is up there.....

I bet you $100 ($76 CA) that the C-Note will get a name change if it gets beyond the prototype stage!   I guess everyone saw the 150,000 unit prediction for global X-Trail sales the other day? (Yahoo) Sounds like a lot, but it's only 10,000 units more than last year's production.   Steve, Host
#267 of 331 Nissan X-Trail (we're getting it.....and you're not!) by wheelz4 Feb 13, 2004 (1:11 pm)
Sorry to rub it in.....Maybe Nissan USA will see the light eventually. X-Trail info is up on the Nissan Canada website. http://www.nissan.ca/en/ms/futuremodels/xtrail/index.html#mainFla- shContent I'm going to see it in person at the Toronto Auto Show. As long as they price it competetively, I think it will be a winner.

#268 of 331 Roof Rack by ropedart Feb 16, 2004 (11:21 pm)
Did you catch the new roof rack shown on another site? Its thick and got lamps in it. I must say Nissan sure does implement nice macho racks. The rack and tires make a SUV. The Xterra signature is that rack its got. Xtrail looks good in silver but its still a generation behind in Nissan styling. If this works out in Canada the next gen Xtrail should do well in the states.
#269 of 331 Yi yi yi! Now Canada gets it! LOL. Well thanks Nissan of by cb70 Feb 29, 2004 (10:55 am)
America, I bought a VUE anyways. Good news for you Canadians, too bad they wouldn't have the diesel/6 speed option that they have in Europe though. One of you Canadians want to do a road test and report back to us Red Headed Stepchild Americans on how well you liked the X-Trail?
#270 of 331 Hey, cb! by wheelz4 Mar 01, 2004 (6:49 am)
Haven't seen you around these parts for awhile! Will definitely do an X-Trail road test when they become available......don't know an official date yet....they're just saying "spring 2004" at the moment. I wonder if Nissan Canada really WAS listening, or it was their intention to bring it here all along. Anyway, hope you're enjoying your Vue.....hope you didn't buy the one with the CVT!
#271 of 331 I bought the V6 AWD. by cb70 Mar 01, 2004 (9:34 am)
CVT has had way too many problems for me to consider. The V6 gets good mileage for a 6 cyl 22-25 mpg in the summer. Maybe I'll buy a used X-Trail from Canada in a few years. My sister lives in Seattle so I could always take a trip to Vancouver from her place, eh?
