What is the new Nissan X-Trail differ from his classmates Hyundai Santa Fe and Toyota RAV4? Updated Nissan X-Trail - Competitors do not sleep what is new in the sets and prices for the X-TRAIL after restyling.

The Nissan X-Trail of the previous generation has highlighted among fellow crossovers with a brutal "off-road" appearance. But the new one ... what he differs from his classmates Hyundai Santa. Fe and Toyota RAV4? All Machines are all-wheel drive, with gasoline four-cylinder motors with a capacity of 171-180 hp and automatic transmissions.

In AM also seems to new X-Trail below the predecessor? Optical illusion! It became higher (+10 mm), wider (+30 mm), rang out at 75 mm at a wheelbase, although the length has grown only five millimeters. However, rounded shapes and the dropping line of the hood revere the true dimensions.

From the utilitarian SUV Nissan X-Trail turned into a fashionable crossover - with a well-minded gambling chassis

The shape of the rear lights brings thoughts about more road crossover Lexus RX series

0 / 0

And inside? The interior is more interesting and more contemporary, but ergonomics are not without flaw. I sit down behind the wheel, the seat until the stop is back, the beam up ... closed. In my height, 190 cm, I would like to push the chair for a couple of centimeters. And the angle of inclination of the steering wheel change to the more "vertical", and then you have to reach for a long part of the rim.

Front panel and doors are separated by soft plastic, in the list of options - the most modern equipment

But the chair with the loud name Zero Gravity is good. No wonder of the Keio University of Tokyo worked on their profile - and not in vain they applied here the same approach as in the development of the seats of spacecraft: the pressure on the back of the hips to the shoulders should be distributed evenly.

Mitsubishi Outlander, Renault Koleos, Subaru Forester., Volkswagen Tiguan. and Nissan X-Trail

The prices of our heroes will spin around 1,800,000 rubles (at the time of the preparation of the publication. - Ed.). Engine power - about 170 hp All cars are in rich equipment and are ready to put all their trumps into the move.

Not cathet

I am ready to write about it another year or two. If you need - ten. But sooner or later I will make the manufacturers to wake conscience and endow all the windows automatic mode, and not just the driver. We are with you for this full right. Especially buying a car for the money.

The sake of justice should notice: My shouting of the soul concerns all the "Japanese" in our test. However, in Mitsubishi, such an act of crumbling annoys the most. They also saved even on the backlight of the keys - only one was highlighted, and barely noticeable white stripe.

It is in the salon "Outlander" the savings are felt especially clearly. On the chairs - not inspiring confidence of rough skin. Plastic racks and ceiling finishing material - it's easier to nowhere. Finally finish the echoes of the Japanese pedigree in the form of a handbrake located on the side of the passenger. And even a fatty plastic of the top of the panel is not able to save the situation. Too budget!

And not too convenient. Need not only to handle parking brake, but also to the selector of the variator, the lever of which walks along the serpentine groove. And the rear passengers will certainly subscribe to the absence of upper deflectors by blowing. And let it be on the sofa at least three times spacious (the stock for the legs in Mitsubishi and the truth is large) - the all-consuming raid is cheaply depriving me of the opportunity to make a choice in favor of this car. Is that Outlander will be incredibly good in motion and it will be able to kill skeptics in me!

According to the first sensations - did not kill, but wounded.

You are driving in a soft, but good chair, break down on the road - and the mood is improving. An inline 2,4-liter "Four" works on conscience, and the smoothness of the course on a flat asphalt is good. And although the efforts and reactions on the steering wheel are not the apotheosis of the refined, the "Out" is managed, and the variator is classically clicking imaginary transmissions. One problem: All of the above refers exclusively to a measured city ride.

On the country highway, where the asphalt came down with snow, the carriage turns into a pumpkin. The direct 167-strong motor is sitting on the ears, barely tachometer arrows approaching the red zone. On the road waves there is a longitudinal squabble, all the cracks and cracks are broadcast on the steering wheel. And the brakes are not a fountain: the effort on the pedals is insensitive. In general, not asphalt manners takes Mitsubishi. It remains off-road.

I translate the transmission to 4WD mode and go to storming a snowy virgin. For the distribution of the moment there is a multid-wide coupling with electronically control and the ability to lock. However, in a conjunction with a variator, stupidly smearing the powerful thrust and a priori prone to overheating, such an arsenal does not promise anything outstanding. And indeed: it was worth a little relax - Outlander sat down on the thresholds. And the legs sweeping. Snowy recesses on this machine is better stormed by move. Stop it - writing disappeared, and no blocking will save.

In general, I did not understand the motives without a small thirty thousand buyers. Is that a trunk? Mitsubishi has the most voluminous in the test. Or is it in price? In today's times, even a minor difference allows you to close your eyes to many shortcomings.

Right rhombus

Just do not think that I am abnormal and evaluating cars exclusively on trifles. Although Renault Koleos bribes exactly this: the level of study of parts by elderly, the Franco-Korean crossover is already superior to the most modern rivals.

Incinual access through any door? You are welcome! While the super-modern X-Trail in the maximum configuration is content with sensors on the trunk doors and two front doors.

And in the interior Renault there is cool solutions. For example, the central box-armrest with a removable zero and a panoramic mirror to observe children on rear seat. And it does not matter that the removable part of the armrest resembles a kitchen trash can, and the mirror takes the units. After all, these things themselves are important, but the care of the buyer.

And yet in well-equipped and decorated high-quality light skin salon "Koleos" are detected for disappointment. Age does not hide and do not hide in a giant gluke, capable of shelter hardly a shoe box. The base of the gear lever, the climatic unit from the QASHQAI of the 2006 Sample and the Music Steering Remote Control - all this, especially on the background of artifacts such as an electronic handbrack and the "dead" zone control system.

The engine is started with a button. The same 2.5-liter row "four" in a bunch with a variator is placed under the hood of the former "X-traile". You chew on the pedal - and Koleos rushes forward confidently, but a little yielding in the dynamics of Mitsubishi. Later you understand: the case in noise insulation. Renault is not slower, but noticeably quieter: the motor noise in the cabin is less, the sand and stones are not so distinctly drums on the arms - because not so sharply notice the speed set.

Better and smooth stroke. KoleOS swallows potholes without choker and even sharpened under comfort. Active drive is not his horse.

At the turns of the steering wheel, the crossover reacts sluggishly, the rins of the body in turns are great - do not wait for the pleasure of fast driving.

The rear passengers will also hardly dance from happiness - even a well-sound audio system Bose will not help. Despite the decent base (more than the new "Nissan"), Koleos is closer than other dough participants. Driver's knees with growth of 190 cm, which sits down "by himself", rest in the back of the front armchair. Can the passenger discontent be compensated by a spacious trunk who lost in our measurements only to Outlenderovsky? Decide yourself.

I turn off the stabilization system and turn on the virgin in the hope of going further than on Mitsubishi. The geometric parameters of the passability of the "Koleos" are not bad, but the implementation of the full drive is standard: a multi-disc friction clutch with the possibility of forced blocking.

Alas, walking through the fields were short. Ten minutes ago, Renault froze with overheated variator. Nor alive, nor dead. And although soon the variator cooled and again was ready for the empires, my attitude to the "Koleos" remained cool.

Impossible Figure

Suggest me! It is impossible to look at the head display of the test "Forester" without tears. This is the collapse of common sense on the Android platform: Colorful graphics in the spirit of the early Chinese "iPhones", a monstrous analog squeak when you press the buttons, the confused menu ... We and our colleagues tried to connect three different smartphones through Bluetooth, but in vain - 3: 0 The benefit of the absurd. And what is the point of combining this monster with Harman / Kardon acoustics? No sound.

And now you can exhale with relief: this musical "happiness" is not in any basic complete set "Forester" - dealers install it for an additional fee. My advice: Spend your blood on something else.

The rest of the interior of the Forester is very decent, with a minimum of cheap solutions. Here are comfortable chairs with sufficient (European) pillow length and backrest height, cool steering wheel with steering wheel petals. That's just landing is high - in any case, for a car with a sports image.

I waited from Subaru refined "sport", including the opportunity to grasp the earth, - and instead got a bar stool and an unconquisited stabilization system. To be accurate, the ESP allows you to slightly stall, but as soon as we break the car with a pull and unscrew the steering wheel to a large corner, it in a panic enough brake discs, and antiscolic system Does not open gas. Safety? Understand. However, Forester turned out to be too family. However, it may have worked the syndrome of overpriced expectations. After all, "Forik", despite the presence of strict electronic nites, is very good.

Two and a half atmospheric opposite liters are carrying and sounded to envy classmates. The handling is wonderful, although the ratio of feedback on the steering wheel is still not enough. And, which is very surprising, in some incomprehensible way, the perky setting of the chassis is combined with a good smoothness of the course.

Forester entered the top three on the asphalt and became the second on loose snow. If the variator, Subaru probably inclined to overheating, would have ever concerned for leadership - on part of the clearance and entry / exit angles, he is a favorite, and a multid-wide friction clutch is also responsible for the time distribution. No matter how hard we planted "Lesnika", he did not succumb. CHRAND GROWN, confidently and brazenly. Exactly until the variator reported his poor well-being. And let Forester did not refuse to ride at all, as Koleos did, had to give a transmission to relax.

Forester came out controversial. Good but strange. And the most expensive.

Speed \u200b\u200bvector

On the first day of testing behind the wheel of Tiguana, I moved from Subaru. And the first fifteen minutes of the path was stupid smiling, weakly believing in what is happening.

Strocious! "German" went ninth year, and he is in two heads perfectly Renault, Subaru and Mitsubishi.

The interior is a fairy tale! Once again I am convinced that Asian manufacturers are far from Europe in this area. Tiguan even smells cool. The quality of brown leather on harsh, but flawlessly molded seats causes the least doubt, and Unnamed "Music" plays not an example of better Subarovsky android in a bundle with Harman / Kardon acoustics. On the steering wheel - gorgeous tender skin. Only in order to feel her palms every time, I am ready to abandon the Japanese with their eats. In addition to the boring architecture of the panel, seriously and to make face.

And how to explain the "spatial paradox"? Despite the shortest wheelbase, in the rear sofa "Tiguana" is spacious than in the "Koleos".

Only the trunk "Tiguana" does not withstand critics: 284 liters "under the curtain" - nonsense for the mid-sized crossover.

And how are things on a snowy virgin? What is capable of Haldex coupling connecting rear axle when slipping the front? I did not wait a lot. Least ground clearance, the longest beak of the front bumper ... Tiguan looks some kind of toy and does not inspire confidence on the capping. But, to the amazement of our test group, it was he who was the most talented in deep snow.

The classic "automatic" in such conditions feels where better variator, and the maximum torque is available from 1700 revolutions helps to work wonders. Volkswagen is confidently chosen from any situation and playing new gauze in the field.

For me, Tiguan remained unconditional favorite of the test. Finally, additional trunk You can install on the roof, and travel the threesome on the rear sofa is doubtful pleasure in any car.

Good day. In today's article we will talk about weak spots Nissan X-Treil (Nissan X-Trail) of various modifications. Traditionally, for our site, the article will have a lot of photos and videos.

The history of the model.

Nissan X-Thil is manufactured since 2001 by Nissan in Japan, Canada, Russia and the UK. During the release, the car changed 3 generations, each of which was distinguished by the platform, and survived several small restyings. Since platforms are different, weak points for each generation will be their own, and we will consider them separately.

Separately, I would like to emphasize that Nissan X-Trail, of any generation, is not an SUV is a regular parquet and place to him on asphalt!

Main drive for this machine - FrontThe four-wheel drive connects automatically when slipping one of the wheels and by and large is a driver assistance system. So-called Rigid blocking inter-axis differential, connects rear axle multi-disc friction coupling, and works at speeds up to 30 km / h, and after the system switches to automatic mode.

In general, the car wins on Subaru Forester, Toyota Rav4, Honda SRV, but hopelessly behind Land Rover Freedlander and (it's a downstream in the transmission).

The first generation of Nissan X-Treil (Nissan X-Trail T30).

The first generation of the car is based on the modernized Nissan FF-S platform, previously on this platform, Nissan Almeria and Nissan Primera were produced. Produced from 2002 to 2007. A distinctive feature The car is an uncomfortable location of the instruments (in the center of the panel).

X-Trail T30 is encountered with 2.0 liter gasoline engines. (140 hp), and 2.5 liters. (165 hp), as well as with a diesel engine of 2.2 liters. (114 hp)

If you get an export x-trail from Japan, it is somewhat more interesting - the 2.0-liter gasoline engine in the atmospheric version develops 150 hp. 150 hp and 280 hp in the presence of turbocharging.

In 2003, the first generation was restored, while the bumper was changed, the interior decoration, and the power of the engines increased slightly.

In the case of Russia, the choice of car on mechanics with a 2.5 liter engine is optimal. His fuel consumption is almost the same with version 2.0 (and in the urban cycle it will often be lower), and transport tax It remains at an acceptable level. Spare parts are as common.

Diesel is more economical than gasoline versions, but has problems with service, fewer diesel engines.

Most recently, Nissan Corporation thoroughly changed the approach to the X-Trail model by making it an ordinary large fleet. Prior to this, the car represented a rather interesting and even unique version of transport in the market, but his appearance Godlessly outdated and lost the relevance every day. For this reason, the corporation undertook to prevent problems with relevance. In 2017, the Nissan X-Trail model will be restyled. The company again puzzled quickly out of the fashion of some solutions of the appearance of the car, starting immediately correct all the possible disadvantages. In particular, the update will affect the design of the car. It is important to take into account that the transport has not been completely changed so long ago, and again dramatically change his style would not be the most reasonable solution. Such sharp throwing rarely work on the hand image of the concerns.

Today, the car and without updating it seems fairly modern, but a quick change of priorities in the exterior of the car completely changes the approach to the production and Japanese crossovers. The competitors of the X-Trail are updated one by one, and it causes a certain cavering that soon the new Parquarter will again become unclaimed due to a rather old design. But with updates almost every 2 years it becomes impossible. Today, the corporation almost completely revealed the cards on the new crossover and told everything you need to know about the novelty. Of course, the surprise of potential buyers will be much smaller than at the time of the transition of the non-coarse male crossover In the category of ultra-modern urban particle posts. Today we'll talk simply about cosmetic changes, some features of technology, and also compare the car with its main rivals and analyze the price features.

Appearance X-Trail 2017 - All major changes here

Despite the fairly fresh development, Nissan has already begun to lose certain features of modern design. In particular, the optics was not so relevant, the features of the unpleasant remnants of the past corporate style of the company were discovered somewhere. The main changes will be in these areas. The company decided to bring its cult crossover to modernity and made a number of important changes. Among the main reformations should be allocated features:

• fully changed the appearance of the front headlights, they began to more correspond to the style of the machine, acquired a unique form that does not repeat any other company's development;
• a coarse wide chrome line on the grid of the radiator remains and reminds of the origin of the machine, the form of the bumper and the lattice itself is slightly changed in accordance with the optics;
• the back of the car was touched by less, there are also changes here, the lanterns have become more compact, there was more rudeness and confidence cars in their superiority;
• the salon on the first photos of the novelties is quite beautiful, there are few changes here, but they are, especially changed the multimedia system, an approach to the design and decoration of the interior;
• in expensive equipment, much more leather inserts will appear, several changes the form of the central console, the functions of controlling the possibilities of the machine will become more convenient.

Such reformations clearly have a positive effect on the perception of the car, so the manufacturer has achieved some success with its restyling. But it is not necessary to talk about global changes. The modern buyer is spoiled by a rather fast change of priorities on automotive market. Let's hope that the model will retain its relevance during the wave of restyings of rivals in 2017-2018. While the machine looks very nice.

Technical part - What will be under the hood of Nissan?

The technique of significant changes in the car is not foreseen. Transportation already turned out to be quite modern, suggested even such versions of technical equipment, which are not at competitors. Nissan X-Trail 2017 After restyling promises the very characteristics that have been at the machine to change. For the buyer, this means proven technique and not too much price change. The main features of the technical part of the car are as follows:

• basic motor - 2-liter gasoline unit with potential in 144 horses, there are versions with mechanics and front-wheel drive, as well as with a variator and front or fully drive;
• the second unit is an excellent 1.6-liter turbodiesel who comes to Russia with mechanics and a four-wheel drive, the engine offers 130 power horses and excellent traction;
• a top 2.5-liter gasoline unit with a capacity of 171 horsepower, equipped with a capacity of 171 horsepower cVT variator and a full drive system, with excellent complete set;
• the suspension was developed only a few years ago, when the car completely changed and experienced a number of important changes in the technical part, and the steering was also changed;
• actual electronics systems on board offer quite serious advantages in the operation of the car, there is no doubt that this transport will be relevant.

For technical considerations, it is difficult to call Nissan X-Trail with a crossover from life. It is not advanced, as it does not offer any unique and excessively expensive complete sets. But at that time, he far did not become the lagging link in the line of progress of modern japanese cars. For a potential buyer, this car is completely all that can be represented. The choice of technical solutions and complete sets is quite large.

What's new in the sets and prices for the X-Trail after restyling?

In the car there are many pleasant little things that will really please the potential buyer. Restyling practically did not affect the configuration, but it was not necessary. A completely modern crossover was one of the most interesting in his ruler. The car still during the change of generations received a lot of changes in terms of technologies for comfort. To date, the main advantages of the car in terms of configuration are as follows:

• a huge selection of versions that please their superiority even in comparison with the most popular competitors, the car pleases the buyer with wealth of equipment even in the database;
• the cost of the X-Trail in the database is unlikely to exceed the figure of 1.5 million rubles, the current versions start the cost from 1,409,000 rubles, and restyling does not rise too much;
• excellent climate control and 6 airbags are pleased with the buyer, cruise control makes movement for distant distances comfortable enough for the driver of the car;
• there is heated seats, the column is adjustable in all directions, for variants, a helping system is provided when the start on the rise will also delight and an excellent stabilization system;
• full music is excellent, the multimedia installation management system has changed significantly in the restyled version, it has become more convenient and received many important changes.

The car has changed, but at the same time remains the same. The cost has not changed too much, not the greatest changes occurred in the technical part. The appearance also did not affect too frankly. Therefore, we can say that the purpose of this restyling is to bring all parts of the car into a modern appearance. And it pleases the potential buyer, as the owner this car - This is a mature and consisted person who does not need serious changes in style.

Compare with competitors - Main information about rivals X-Trail

You can find tens of crossovers that are somehow included in the Nissan competitive zone. Cars have a roughly similar price tag, many of them are produced in Japan, developed at the same time as Nissan. For this reason, the car will be very difficult in such an environment. Moreover, the X-Trail is not the cheapest representative of the class. Let's look at a few avid rivals of the car:

1. Subaru Forester. This Japanese is a bit less less than Nissan, but it is also designed for lovers of rough parkelors with a good past. Auto personifies excellent travel opportunities and is one of the main competitors of the model under consideration today. Price from 1,659,000 rubles.
2. Kia Sorento - Korean Giant in the class of crossovers is also included in the Nissan competitive environment. This car offers a huge interior and several magnificent engines, luxury lovers buy it. The cost of Sorento today from 1,625,000 rubles.
3. Ford Kuga. It is impossible to do in the class of medium-sized crossovers without Americans. Cuga offers powerful engines, a classic pleasant shape and very modern style. The car is technologically superior to many rivals. Worth it minimum version from 1,399,000 rubles.
4. Mitsubishi Outlander - Updated Outlander pleases with new style, excellent changes in design and beautiful technical equipment. Also quite good are the configuration of new items from Japan. At the same time, the cost of the car has not reached a little to the mark of 1,500,000 rubles.

As you can see, Nissan has become one of the most affordable, as well as the largest representatives of the class. His technical part Not inferior to one opponent, there is a choice of excellent solutions with an equally democratic price tag. None of the version of the car do not have to overpay more than 2,000,000 rubles, except that you get a huge amount additional equipment. This speaks about the excellent possibilities of transport and excellent preparation for sales.

We offer to look at the video review of the X-Trail model in anticipation of the novelties:

Let's sum up

High-quality cars have quite high demands in terms of design, equipment, complete sets and price tag. Today the buyer is spoiled by a huge amount of cars in any class. Machines are pleased with their quality and endurance indicators, fuel consumption indicators are improved, definitely grow technical capabilities vehicle. And Nissan X-Trail tries to manage to manage to change the priorities of buyers at an incredible pace. The crossover continues to be updated and keep the brand, so that his purchase at any time will cause only positive emotions from the owner.

According to the technical part of the changes in restyling, 2017 is not, but the appearance has changed quite thoroughly. However, today's X-Trail version is not outdated and irrelevant. If you want to save on the purchase, it is worth going to the salon and buy the current generation of the car. Soon in the salons will begin to appear updated versionwhich clearly change the price tag a little. Otherwise, the machine is pleased with its capabilities and provides only positive emotions from exploitation. What do you think about the current update of Nissan?

When new car It appears on the market, he has to compete not only with "youth", but also with cars that have long won the love of buyers and changed not one generation. So Skoda Kodiac has such an opponent - Nissan X-Trail, which has been produced since 2001 and is now represented by the third generation. So will the Czech beginner be able to overcome his mastty opponent?

Exterior and dimensions

The current generation of X-trail - T32 - released in 2013, and the restyling version of the car is not reached by Russia. Therefore, it is not necessary to talk about ultra-modern design. When changing generations, the brutal appearance of the H-Trail beloved by many of the brutal appearance with geometric shapes and chopped lines gave way to a quieter urban exterior. Although the crossover on the CMF platform and turned out to be rather rude and "off-road" against the background of competitors, most of the model fans remained disappointed - the truly male appearance of the Japanese, brightly manifested in the second generation, in 2013 it turned out to be lost.

Skoda entered cunning - the coding was originally designed so that his design was liked to everyone. It looks solid and powerful, but at the same time elegant thanks to Famoths with imitation of Czech crystal, dynamic hood lines, balanced proportions. Of course, it did not cost without controversial damn - someone does not like the location of the fog, someone is a form of a radiator lattice, but in general, most experts and simple motorists, regardless of gender and age, evaluate the appearance of "bear" positively. And this is the right stroke with a marketing point of view, because Skoda Kodiak, unlike Nissan X-trail, is not a male, namely, a family car.

Visual comparison Skoda. Kodiaq and Nissan X-Trail

In terms of colors, the X-Trail looks against the background of Kodiaq is poor - the Japanese has only 7 body color options, and only one is more or less bright - blue. From Cech, and there is both red, and 2 blue, and several shades of brown and green.

As for the dimensions, it is impossible not to note the main advantage of the Kodiak - the presence of a 7-seater version. Nissan produces x-trail in Russia only with 5-seater. If you compare 5-seater cars, Czech is longer than the "Japanese" by 57 mm (by a wheelbase - by 86 mm) and wider by 62 mm. He is experiencing more than the minimum trunk volume - 720 liters vs. 497, but about the carrying capacity and not to speak - 675 kg against 435 kg! Nissan is slightly higher and easier, boasts to higher clearance. Although here you need to take into account that in the Russian version of the coding will be equipped with a package for bad roads, and its road clearance will somewhat grow.

Interior

Options for the interior decoration at both cars are not too much - fabric and skin of standard colors: beige and black in Nissan, beige, black and brown at Skoda. Both cars are positioned by manufacturers as the most spacious and comfortable and comfortable even for people tall above 180 cm. But, of course, the Czech crossover wins here at the expense of the initially large dimensions. Especially this will immediately feel high passengers of the second row. In addition, the third row of seats can be installed in the coding, which makes it functional. Yes, and you should not forget about a huge trunk.

Comparison of Codiac salons and x-trail

For buyers Nissan X-Trail or Skoda Kodiaq. Numerous additional options are available that make the interior of the machine more comfortable and beautiful. Both machines have a panoramic roof, climate control, parking sensors, a multimedia system with a wide functionality (including navigator) and other pleasant "chips." There are also unique options, for example, atmospheric LED backlight at the codiac.

Technical equipment

Nissan X-Trail is available in Russia with three versions of engines:

• 2.0 144 hp (petrol);
• 2.5 171 hp (petrol);
• 1.6 DCI 130 hp (diesel).

Drive options - two: full and front. PPC - 6-speed "mechanics" and CVT variator.

Kodiaq, according to preliminary data, in the first year after entering russian market We also sell with three engines:

• 1.4 TSI 150 hp (petrol);
• 2.0 TSI 180 hp (petrol);
• 2.0 TDI 150 hp (diesel).

At the same time it is planned that all the motors will be available only in combination with the "DSG robot" and a complete drive. In European markets, codiac is also available with gasoline engine 1.4 TSI 125 hp and Diesel 2.0 TDI 190 hp, with MCPP 6 and front-wheel drive. Perhaps these versions will appear in 2018 after the start of the local assembly of the Czech crossover.

Engine data applicable to the Russian market.

Challenges

For all dynamic indicators, Skoda Kodiak exceeds its competitor, even though the X-trail is a top gasoline engine with a large volume (but at the same time have a smaller power). "Czech" and accelerates faster and reaches a higher maximum speed. According to the economy of fuel consumption, the advantage is again for Kodiaq, especially in the city cycle.

Fuel consumption and dynamics (gasoline)

Since only all-wheel drive versions of Skoda Codiac are offered for the Russian market, the corresponding (4x4) options for Nissan X-trail are taken for correct comparison, although the latter can be bought and monophod.

Fuel consumption and dynamics (diesel)

Prices for Nissan X-Trail and Skoda Kodiaq

In Russia, Nissan X-Trail is sold at a price of 1,449,000 rubles (for front-wheel drive and gasoline engine 2.0 144 hp with 6-MT in the XE configuration) up to 2,047,000 rubles (for all-wheel drive and gasoline engine 2.5 171 l . With the CVT variator in the Le Top configuration). For Diesel, at least 1,739,000 rubles will now have to lay out. The price at Skoda Czeskaya assembly codiac starts from 1,999,000 rubles (in the configuration of Ambition Plus with a gasoline engine 1.4 TSI 150 hp, a robot DSG-6 and a full drive). For the diesel version will have to lay out at least 2,309,000 rubles (two-liter engine), and the most dear version 2.0 TSI 180 hp DSG-7 4x4 in the top style setting Plus will cost 2,615,000 rubles. After the start of the localized assembly and withdrawals on the Russian market of basic engines and the sets, the starting price for the codiac will significantly decrease and according to some data will be about 1.5 million rubles. It will happen in 2018.

Output

Nissan X-Trail - the car is more male than family. It is not all necessary for everyone in terms of appearance, besides, it is only available in the 5-seater version. But it is sold in Russia with diesel engine from mechanical box gears (1,739,000 rubles), and in the range of complete sets there are both rich and simple options. The X-Trail is already going to Russia in the industrial complex "Kamenka" under St. Petersburg, which makes its prices are quite accessible - a little more than 2,000,000 even in the most expensive configuration.

Skoda Kodiak looks more modern and more attractive competitor, there is in the 5- and 7-seater version. Czech crossover boasts a huge trunk and a spacious lounge, it is more powerful, but more economy engines. But it will be more likely to cost it, and its local assembly starts not earlier than the middle of 2018.
