In a bid to expand its Indian lineup, Nissan has revealed the fourth-generation X-Trail in India. The automaker is all set to launch the X-Trail SUV in the coming days. The new model will not be manufactured in the country and will be brought via a completely built unit (CBU) route. Nissan has announced that the India-spec X-Trail will be retailed in limited numbers.
The Nissan X-Trail will join the famous Magnite Compact SUV in the brand’s lineup. After its official launch in India, the flagship model will rival the likes of the MG Gloster and the Toyota Fortuner. The new SUV was rolled out in international markets in 2021, where it is now available in five- and seven-seater configurations. However, the X-Trail will be launched in the Indian market for the first time. The India-spec SUV is based on the CMF-C platform. It is available in three-row guise and boasts an upright and square outlook.
