2015 Nissan X-Trail (Nissan Rogue)

[sachiel]

Thanks sachiel. Will check p.tamo dealership din. Di ko pa sure how much discount i-offer ng shaw eh sabi kasi nun agent kpag may bank na ko ska daw sila magoffer.

How much po ba usually discount na offer for xtrail?

I haven't tried asking for discount for Xtrail but for the new Navarra, it's P20k. I'm sure you can still haggle for more discount. Maybe Whistler can share his experience.

I asked Nissan Shaw a few weeks ago. Wala daw discount for X-Trail. Kahit cash basis wala parin daw discount.

Try asking in other dealers. I've never heard of no discounts when buying cars no matter old or new. Even the new Navarra with the introductory price has discounts.

Although there are such things as no discount for specific variants like what happened to the Ranger Wildtrak 4x4 and MU-X LS-A AT with their huge DIs.

We reserved our unit last October pa. That's why we got the introductory price of 1.550M for the 4x4. But that offer for 30K off expired in December last year. I don't think there are discounts to be had right now for the 4x4 units, as they've brought in so few of them there's even a waiting list. Maybe for the 4x2 there could be wiggle room for a little discount. I'm told the 4x2's are more readily available. If you can wait they eventually will give discounts.

The Navara's intro price right now is around 50K less I would guess vs the actual SRP. Not sure when that offer will end but eventually they will give discounts, just give it time. They tend to stick to the SRP when they know the unit is good and brand new to the market.

After two months of waiting, we were told that our 4x4 will arrive next week. Our dealer said that the waitlist will be fully served this month, at least those who signed last January. It didn't help that the color we chose is pearl white, which has the longest line.

We didn't get any discounts but the 3year LTO came free along with tint & matting.

Congrats! IMO Pearl White is the best available color. We just didn't get it because our other car is already white. Get ready to turn heads when you pass by.

We just got our Pearl White unit today. What a beauty! First impressions:

- The eco mode really works! Acceleration is almost non-existent in eco mode hahaha

- Zero gravity front seats feel good. Was stuck in traffic for close to an hour coming from the dealer, & those seats are truly comfortable.

- When not on eco mode, acceleration is brisk, & the engine note is quite loud. I didn't rev too high though, I still follow the old school break in method.

- My unit came with a free tonneau cover, something I didn't expect since its a 7 seater.

- I'm still figuring out how to operate the radio hahaha. Need to read that thick manual.

Is it already possible to replace the 4x2 model's standard HU to something similar to the 4x4's with around-view cameras? Or even just front and back cameras/sensors?

What's the actual city FC of the 2015 X-trail? How about highway FC? Thanks.

What's the actual city FC of the 2015 X-trail? How about highway FC? Thanks.

According to the trip computer, on average I get 10.5L/100Km mixed, about 40% City, 60% highway (no expressways). In extra City (crawling EDSA at rush hour) the worst I got was 18L/100Km. But that was really bad traffic, 80% of the time in 1st-2nd gear (if this was an a/t). Fuel is Shell Vpower Nitro +.

I'm expecting this to improve a little as it's only got 2,000Kms on it.

My X-Trail 4x4:









I had a great time driving it for the first week since I got it last week. My impressions:

Handling and Drive: The Eco mode is truly Eco, there is no forward thrust from standstill. This helps in stop and go traffic. Once Eco mode is turned off, the engine is quite preppy and the engine note can be heard when the rpm goes over 3,000. Handling is pretty good, I can feel the Active control stuff during cornering. Only Cons: The steering is uber light, I prefer steering that gives me more feedback.

Comfort: The front seats are indeed comfortable, with great lumbar support. Ours comes with the leather seats, and I must say that the seats are very comfy. Even the second row is comfortable. The front cupholders are also cooled by aircon vents. Noise levels in the cabin is subdued, no road noise enters. It makes me feel like I am in a luxury executive sedan. Not MBenz level, but more like Volvo-ish.

Capacity: The long wheelbase is a big plus, with ample leg room for all rows, including the third row. This SUV can seat 7 adults for short trips. Third row is a bit hot though, they don't have their own aircon vents. 3 pt seatbelts in the 3rd row is a plus.

Fuel Economy: I logged in 6.7KM/L in purely Makati City Driving. This includes numerous idling times since I would tinker around the interior with the aircon running. This is pretty good considering the 2.5L engine and that it is still in the break in period.

Other perks: I get a huge kick out of the Around View Monitor. In reverse, the screen shows the rear and then the Bird's Eye View, which is very useful. PresS THE "DISP" button and the view changes to the front right fender for parking blindspots, and then put the tranny to N or to D, the view shows the front camera. The cameras are quite discreet. Took me a while to find the front camera.

Overall Assessment: Its a nimble car, sized just right for a family of 6 doing mostly city driving. Engine is peppy enough, comfort levels are above average.

Add-ons and other accessories: In the first week I drove it I changed the horn (from tweety bird to something more respectable), and changed the halogen bulbs to NightBreakers. The stock halogens were quite dim. I'll use it for a few months first before going the retrofit route. I also got the deep dish mats from Lamsen. Would most likely get rain visors and change the stock speakers as well.

For now, the X-Trail is sleeping in the garage, grounded by the "no-plate no travel" policy. Luckily, big brother Sorento can pitch in for the meantime.

Your review is 100x better than topgearph's

Wala ba talagang discount sa bagong XTRAIL?

[blooperoo]

Dealers are offering discounts as stocks of 4x2 (CBU-Japan) arrived. Saw the display in Glorietta and they are offering a 40k discount on the 4x2. 4x4 not readily available daw. Anybody here have any updates on their 4x2? Thinking of getting one specially now that there's a discount and there's one month free amort of BPI. For those who have the 4x2, anybody had: fogs installed? (Lamson is selling them for 9k but switch is push button, not the stalk. Maybe later on it would be easier to find the stalk switch); replaced the head unit? And installed a back up camera? (Saw a 7" OEM unit online made by Bosch around $500); installed parking sensors?; replaced horns? Installed step boards? (BMW type) thanks in advance.

I also hope they can change the seats of the 4x2 to leather even if full price. The 19k for the 4x4 is "subsidized daw" by the plant as per the agent of Nissan (formerly UMC on pasong tamo)

And thanks MrGunn for the review.

Question to X-trail owners: There were some areas of the interior (steering wheel, etc.) where they put in questionably tacky-thin plastic. Doesn't bother you even a tad bit?

Nissan Shaw has a display unit of the 4x2 in leather seats which is quite good when I sat on it. Better than the one in Mantrade. They installed it themselves as their accessories dept is shared with Chevrolet, the problem is I forgot to ask how much. You can inquire with them. As far as the head unit, the casa still don't allow mods as it is a CBU unit. That's the bad part of integrated units.

How is tne new nissan xtrail?

[mle61]

i asked in Alabang and leather seats cost 50k+ naman daw. i test drove the 4x2, ok naman. light steering and soft suspension. medyo plastic-y nga yung feel ng interiors pero i think you'll get over it.

Nissan Mantrade charge an addtional P19k for leather seats of the 4x4 version before but they don't do leather for 4x2. Nissan Shaw is the only one I saw a 4x2 with leather seats. Plasticky ba? Mas plasticky Forester and CRV for me.
