Nissan X-Trail Manual Transmission

[BigHead]

Good day mga chiefs

I just have some quick questions.

Did Nissan Phil. ever come out with a "manual tranny" version of the infamous Nissan X-Trail? or "automatic tranny" only?

Also, is the typical fuel consumption of the "auto-tranny" X-trail really as bad as they say? I read somewhere that it usually runs roughly 6-7kms/liter on regular and bad traffic, and only 8-9kms/liter on highways.

Is there anyway to improve the engines overall performance and make it more fuel efficient?

Lastly, the X-trail is not a full-time 4x4 right, cause you can actually switch from 4x2 to 4x4 when needed?

As always, your wise inputs are greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

manual transmission is not release locally. unfortunately nothing can be done about the fuel consumption.

Thanks for your input chief, that is indeed a very very sad fact.
