Under the hood is the innovative e-POWER propulsion system of the brand, made up of a high-performance battery, an integrated motorization with a gasoline engine, a power generator, an inverter and a 150 kW (204 hp) front electric motor. The unique element of the e-POWER system is that the gasoline engine is used solely to generate electricity, while the wheels are driven all the time by the electric motor.

In fact, the system works even under apparently favorable conditions.

With the e-4ORCE system, the driver can accelerate with confidence knowing that the right power is distributed almost instantly to the wheels based on available grip. By specifically managing the power and braking performance of each wheel, the e-4ORCE system sends power to the outer wheels in a turn, thus ensuring agility and stability, which makes the vehicle follow the line of trajectory planned. This advanced traction management is constantly active, providing stability and traction in all driving scenarios, such as wet, muddy, icy or snowy roads.

The X-Trail also stands out for its versatility and rear seat access, for example, thanks to the opening of the rear passenger doors to almost 90 degrees. In addition, the second row of seats splits in a 60:40 configuration and features a fold-down center armrest that makes it easy to transport long items, such as skis, without the need to fold down any of the second row seat sections. And the sliding of these rear seats maximizes boot space while allowing easy access to the third row in the seven-seater version.

When both rear seats are not in use, the resulting boot space places the X-Trail among the best in its class for luggage space, with a total capacity of 585 litres, an increase of 20 litres, thanks to best-in-class floor length and wheelbase as well. Improvements to the trunk utility make it easier to load luggage and store small items. In addition, the modularity of the boot offers 16 different layouts for optimal use of space.

In the five-seater version, the flexible luggage platform system is maintained and improved for the new model, with remodeled platforms, upholstered on one side and plastic on the other for easy cleaning.
