2017 Nissan X Trail 2.0 Litre Diesel In Copper Blaze, Chili Pepper, Titanium Olive Colors – Video
Keen to compete with other large family SUVs, Nissan has launched a more powerful engine for the X-Trail. The new range-topping engine sits above the existing 1.6-litre diesel, and is a 2.0-litre unit offering up 175bhp.
The 2.0-litre four cylinder diesel engine is an engine offered in other markets, but has been upgraded to meet Euro 6 standards. Vice President of Nissan Europe East, James Wright claimed that the addition is about offering “something richer” in the current SUV lineup as that’s what buyers are demanding. He cited the fact that over 40 per cent of X-Trails sold are top-spec Tekna grades and come fitted with four-wheel drive, therefore costing over £30,000. The next logical step, therefore, was to introduce a range-topping engine and boost sales further.
