X-trail Ti-L e-Power – Nissan X-Trail now comes with a hybrid engine, called e-POWER with e-4ORCE. It’s a little different to other hybrids though.
The e-4ORCE refers to twin electric motors that drive all four wheels. That is similar to other e-based hybrids
Where the difference comes in is that X-Trail Ti-L e-POWER refers to a 1.5L turbocharged petrol engine that charges the small 2.1Kw/h battery.
The difference with this hybrid is that the SUV always acts like an electric vehicle, with instant torque available, but without the associated heavy batteries, recharging issues, and range anxiety.
Smaller batteries means less environmental damage as well.
We drove the top spec X-Trail Ti-L e-Power model this week. Its packed with features such as
- a heated steering wheel,
- Bose® 10-speaker sound system,
- quilted Nappa leather-accented~ seats with memory seat function,
- rear sunshades,
- hands-free rear tailgate,
- heated rear outboard seats,
- remote engine start and more
Pricing for the X-Trail Ti-L e-Power model is from $57,190 plus the usual costs.
