The Nissan X-Trail: 25 years of trailblazing

A quarter of a century and more than eight million vehicles sold worldwide: the Nissan X-Trail continues to blaze its own adventurous trail while staying true to its rugged, go-anywhere identity.

The Nissan X-Trail: 25 years of trailblazing

The Nissan X-Trail has been helping drivers find their next adventure for 25 years. From family road trips to off-the-beaten-track weekends, it’s a name that’s become synonymous with capability, versatility and getting out there.

The history of the Nissan X-Trail

First launched in 2001, the Nissan X-Trail arrived during a time where SUVs were seen as either solely a solution to transporting big households or a bulky off-roader that looked out of place around town. The Nissan X-Trail quickly changed these perceptions, carving out its place as a car for people with active lifestyles. Rugged yet refined, it offered the confidence of a traditional 4x4 with the efficiency and everyday usability families needed.

X marks the spot

It’s a formula that’s travelled far. Now sold in 95 countries, the Nissan X-Trail has been leaving its footprints across the globe – from city streets to mountain passes – becoming one of Nissan’s most successful SUVs worldwide. Here in the UK alone, more than 167,000 drivers have chosen the Nissan X-Trail since 2001 – at Arbury, we’ve been delighted to match adventure-seeking drivers with their perfect new and used Nissan X-Trail.

Hybrid X-citement

Fast forward four generations and more than eight million global sales later, the Nissan X-Trail story continues. Today’s model blends that same adventurous spirit with modern technology, including Nissan’s innovative e-POWER hybrid system and e-4ORCE all-wheel drive for smooth, dependable adventures in all conditions.

The Nissan X-Trail has helped lay the path for Nissan’s modern SUV family. Its success paved the way for models like the Qashqai and Nissan Juke – but the Nissan X-Trail has always stayed true to its own identity: bigger, bolder and built for the road less travelled.
