The 2024 Nissan X-Trail has officially been unveiled in India, ahead of its launch. The mid-size SUV returns to India after a long hiatus of 10 years, this time in its fourth generation. Similar to its first innings, this time too the SUV will be sold in India as a completely built-up (CBU) unit, which means we can expect premium pricing. With the X-Trail, Nissan India will finally be able to add another product to its line-up, which for the past year only included the Magnite subcompact SUV.

In addition to 7 airbags, the SUV will also get ADAS with 360-degree cameras.
In terms of safety features, we already know the SUV will feature advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) including 360-degree view cameras. Other bits include 7-airbags, ABS with EBD, traction control, tyre pressure monitoring system, and more.
While the launch date is yet to be announced, we expect the SUV to go on sale in India by the July end or early August. Given it comes via the CBU route, expect pricing to be in the region of Rs. 40 lakh to Rs. 45 lakh (ex-showroom).
