Great car!!
I am so happy we brought this car second hand from Nepean motor group! Its so smooth to drive, feels safe, easy to park and great size for our family of 5!
We have 3 car seats that fit comfortably across the middle row, plus the option of the two extra seats in the back.
Purchased in December 2021 at Nepean Motor Group for A$22,000.00.

Air con gone and not covered by nissan
I have had this car since brand new kept up all servicing etc with Nissan. I complained two years into having the car that the air con kept cutting out but they tested it and said it was fine. Now had the car 3 years and air con gone again and surprise Im now out of warranty and not covered.
Nissan want to charge me for a diagnostic report, but I dont trust them based on the previous service on the air con.
I will never buy a Nissan again which is a shame because I loved my car.
Its comfortable and great to drive but not so great when its hot and I have three going kids in the car crying from being too hot.
Purchased in March 2021.

Not entirely happy
This is my second car, having driven a 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer for 12 years before now. I loved the look of the older more box shaped xtrail, and had driven my aunt's 2003 model with the sunroof. I didn't want to shop around, I just wanted an xtrail. I found a 2015 model that was practically new with full service history, low km's and low price. Fairly happy with it except for one major problem... the vision is so terrible. There is a reversing camera but trying to change lanes on a busy highway is slightly terrifying. All cars have blind spots,...Read more
so you turn your head to make sure there is nobody beside you, but the 2015 xtrail has such tiny windows at the back and sides that it is very hard to see. I have tested the vision at day and night and I am shocked at how poor it is. My other serious dislike about this car is the Speedo is not correct. Apparently this is something some new cars feature to lessen speeding tickets? If I am travelling at 80km/hr according to the car, I am actually only moving at 75km/hr. I thought I was being paranoid about it until I tested it and found out this is a thing. I think it is absolutely ridiculous. The sound system is terrible and it was so hard trying to listen to music for the first few months (I got used to it eventually, unfortunately) Also the Nissan Connect app is crap. Do not recommend. Also a real hassle to get the cars ownership details updated with Nissan when you buy it secondhand (must be done to use nissan connect app) I do like the airconditioner chilled cup holders. And the underseat aircon. The removable floor bits in the boot and the ability to fold seats forward etc is all fine. The "net" over the boot is annoying and useless. I like the extra cup holders and the adjustable back seats. Very confortable to sit in the back on a long drive. I am not entirely disappointed. It has electric windows and cruise control which as luxuries to me.
Purchased in April 2021 for A$19,000.00.

Really good family car
I've owned my 2014 Xtrail from new and can say it hasn't missed a beat mechanically. Which is great, because I intend to keep driving it for the next 5+ years if possible. Servicing by Nissan has always been around $300 - which is as expected.
As to the car itself, we're a family with three growing boys and wanted seven seats to help cart around their friends on short trips - to and from friends houses and sporting events. The additional fold-down seats are really only good for short trips - there's barely any leg room, even with the middle s...Read more
eats pushed forward. Otherwise, when the back two seats are down, there's plenty of room in the middle seats and plenty of luggage space. Extra-wide-opening rear doors are a great help to get the kids and their various possessions in and out. The front seats are really comfy and I enjoy the feature of heated seats in winter. The leather seats are easy to clean and come up a treat with a bit of hot water and detergent. However, the gloss finish on the dashboard attracts dust like nothing else. I've taken to keeping a dust-mitt in the centre console for regular cleaning of the dash. The reversing camera is really-handy - Nissan have super-imposted a graphic of the car (top-down) when reversing, so it looks like there's a camera hovering above the car. Very clever and makes reversing very easy. It's reasonably economical to drive - we spend about $30 a week and that's going about 250km each week. Would I buy again - yes.Purchased in September 2021 for A$38,000.00.

An absolute gem of a car
This car is incredible. Beautiful to look at, amazing to drive, easy on fuel, reliable, roomy, safe and cheap to maintain. The interior is comfortable and easy to clean. The push button start and keyless entry is lush. I'm so in love with this car and will recommend it over and over again.
Purchased in February 2021 at Westpoint Autos for A$15,500.00.

First SUV and couldn't be happier after four years' ownership.
I bought my X-Trail ST 2WD new, in 2014, when I became a grandfather and wanted a bit more space and metal around my precious granddaughter. I had previously owned performance cars, most recently a Mazda MX-5, so this was a major change for me.
I chose the CVT auto having owned a CVT-equipped Honda motorcycle and enjoyed it. I find the step-less auto relaxing and unobtrusive, especially on hilly roads where the CVT doesn't hunt up and down gears.
I have been very happy with my purchase, which came after evaluating most other SUVs in its c...Read more
lass, including the CX5 (class leader according to the press at that time). 100% reliable, roomy, well-equipped for the price and surprisingly economical (average 7.7L/100kms to date), I find myself frequently telling my wife and son how much I like this car. Coming from a petrol-head like me - (and longstanding car enthusiast) that is high praise indeed. I usually start to eye up other cars and think about a swap as the third year of ownership approaches. This time around however, I have no such inclinations. Already more than happy with the superb value for such a competent car (I paid $29,990 drive away), I see no reason to trade it in. This is perhaps the most all-round economical car I have owned in thirty years! Oh and the 2WD has proven to be quite capable on dirt, too. My hobby is photographing motorcycle trials and the events often take place miles from anywhere, at the end of some rather rough gravel roads. The extra ground clearance that an SUV provides has been a boon and i haven't yet needed more traction. When the time comes to trade it in, I will mostly likely head back to the Nissan dealer ...Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Love it!
Use daily for work and also road trips. Never had any issues. Drives smoothly. Lots of space in the back and in the boot. You can barely notice the transmission changing gears. The NissanConnect app is very poorly designed but the features it purports to use are ones we wouldn't use anyway.

My 2nd X-Trail and I love it!
I had a Nissan X-Trail 2012 and traded it in for a small car due to its high petrol consumption and high service cost. At this time I did not know that one can service a new car at a mechanic other than the dealer itself without losing the warranty. The day I handed my keys over, I already regretted it because I really loved my car. Having had the small car for 4 years, I needed to get an X-Trail again and so I did: A used 2016 ST 4x4 with only 3,500 km on the odometer for a very good price. The only bad decision was that I took the "Cosmetic P...Read more
ackage" which includes Windows tinting, colour protection and small chip and scratch repair for a small amount per job. This was an extra $ 2,000.00 and definitely NOT worth it! Shortly after picking up my X-Trail, I went on a trip from Mornington, VIC to Hahndorf, Barossa Valley and Adelaide, SA. The car was excellent in every aspect! We were 2 people, therefore more than enough space for our luggage. Driving mostly on freeways and highways, the best petrol consumption was 6.4 litres/100 km and 91 Octane petrol is enough (I had a German car before and needed to put 95+ petrol in the tank which was getting very expensive). Driving short distances - I'm talking about 2-5 km back and forth (moving house last week) is a different story: The fuel economy was at about 14 litres/100 km, but no one usually does this (?). I cannot complain about anything so far and it's been 7 months since I bought this car.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Great Economical SUV
This car is being used everyday for our family. Really good value for money with enough room for 7 people. Eco mode option is very useful to save petrol these days. Enough power to carry 7 people. Reversing camera is very useful for parking. Looks great inside out. Very happy with the performance so far.

Cheap and cheerful
Picked up a 2016 base model 2 liter manual for a good price. Up to 17000kms.
Motor underpowered needs reving to go anywhere. Problem is greater with a/c running. Clutch makes clicking noise after 5k. Gearbox notchy supposed to get better with age. Ride can get jiggly over smaller bumps.
Fuel Economy is ok regularly get under 8L/100kms around town. Using castrol edge 5w30 full syn.
Seats are comfy for normal driving and everything works so far. Easy access in engine bay for servicing etc.
Also my Chinese smart phone won't connect to Bluetooth. Samsung works fine.

Inferior paint on body of car
I prev had an xtrail for 10 years, so for me it was a no brainer, as mine still looked brand new after 10 years, and drove excellently. This time I bought a 2016 model. Both my prev xtrail and this have had paint protection done pre delivery. Now, not quite 2 years later, having done only 11,000ks, and always garaged, my car has chips in the paint in quite a few places. It seems that if anyone accidentally nudges my car with their door, they take the paint back to bare metal. Seriously feel like they left a few coats of my paintwork when manufacturing. So devastatingly, disappointed. Would not buy another xtrail unless this was proven to be rectified.

Great Car!
Use this car all the time - from commuting to work to family road-trips. It has a great interior look with leather seats which are very easy to clean especially with our dog constantly shedding her hair. The front seat warmers are a cute feature i use a lot more than I originally expected i would.

Perfect for me
I purchased my Xtrail in Dec 15 and have not had one ounce of trouble with it. I’ve driven it from Perth to Sydney and back again 10 months later towing a box trailer. Fuel economy is fantastic and the interior features are great. For a seven seater it is ideal for my young family. Leg room is great in front and back.
The only issue I have is that the headlights are not bright enough being 60W high beams. The interior lights are not real bright either but these can be changed to led’s.
Getting close to 840km per tank gives exceptional fuel economy

Great SUV with lot of features
I have this car since 2016 October and I use to commute to work and long distance trips. My car is standard (ST) and still has lot more features such as reversing camera, key less entry,greate trip computer similar to high end cars. Before I bought this car I drove several car and I noticed that power steering in this car is really precise and smooth. It's also comes with 7 seater which can be used for kids occasionally ( child seat cannot be installed in last 2 seats). I love the button on front door handles, so you don't have to press car key...Read more
button to lock the car all the time. Only draw back I see in this car is it takes little longer to come to the speed ( in comparison to my pervious V6 car). Cruise control is very precise and it shows the speed you setup in the trip computer. I haven't used this for rough terrain so I don't know the performance of it. However it is a great car for your daily used. great fuel conceptions when you do long trips. Reversing camera is really clear even at nightsSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Good family car
Drives smooth and decent amount of power, little road noise. Interior is a bit on the cheap side compared to similar classed vehicles such as the Hyundai. Get roughly 600km from a tank around the $75 mark to fill. Overall great family car for long trips lots of room for the kids, boot room little on the small side for SUV.

Fantastic car
Handles great, very quiet, smooth ride. decent amount of leg room in both front and back, however find there is a large blind spot either side of the windscreen. Fuel economy hasn’t been great, definitely not what they advertised - which was a selling point for us. Very comfortable to drive

Fantastic family car
Great family car - very roomy. We purchased the Standard 7 seat version. The 3rd row is definitely designed for small kids as an occasional seat. Not a lot of leg room or boot space once 7 seats are in play...but has come in handy plenty of times. Reverse camera is new to me and something i now couldn't go without. I do wish they included the reversing "beeping alarm"with the camera. It's a bit hard to judge the distance to objects on the screen. Very happy with the car though and an affordable 7 seater

Love love love it!
We upgraded from a 2013 pulsar - the x-trail 4WD handles fantasticly, is so spacious and comfortable to drive, I can do a 350km on the highway and only use quarter of a tank of fuel. I am so impressed, wish I had have bought the top of the range is my only regret.

Good Value 7 Seater
We bought a ST 7 seater as our first ever new car. Have had the Blu Tooth Stereo replaced under warranty because it stopped being able to connect to a phone. The functionality of the rear 2 seats of the 7 Seats that fold down when you dont need them is great. The CVT transmission works well although we are looking to sell shortly so long time reliability should not be an issue. A great looking car with great seats. I like Nissans fixed price service. Very comfortable on long trips. Update. We ended up selling privately this year as soon as the Warranty ran out. We lost $11000 in 3 years and 2months but due to the great Nissan 1 % finance offer we did well having never spent on Repairs or Tyres.
