What could Nissan PH reveal at PIMS 2024? | Autoindustriya

I'd love to see the X-trail e-power on our shores, but hopefully around 1.7M for the mid variant.

Nissan ... a company going down the drain ... ever since that Ghosn fiasco ...

magkano kaya ang presyo ng X-Trail (Rogue) e-power?

[Verbl Kint]

Here's the PR teaser from Nissan PH:





The huge SUV in the middle is probably the new Patrol which has been announced overseas. The sedan could well be the Nissan Z (maybe the Nismo variant?).

The interesting ones are the other crossovers, which many car journos are guessing to be the X-Trail e-power and the Nissan Magnite (probably to compete with the Toyota Raize and the excellent Kia Sonet).

The X-trail e-power is interesting because it will use a similar serial hybrid powertrain like the Kicks, where the ICE basically acts as a generator for the electric motor. In Europe, there are two variants: a front wheel drive with 200hp and 330Nm of torque, and a dual motor version which can do 0-100kph in a little over 7 seconds.

What I think will make the X-trail a hit are not just the powertrain, but the fact that it is a hybrid 7-seater. Well, in Europe, at least.






I'm guessing we will be getting the front-wheel drive option and the top of the line will likely be the same price, or thereabouts, as the Zenix. The base variant will hopefully be about 1.7M.
