Nissan X-Trail released in Japan
#2
You'll notice that Nissan cranks out new SUV's all the time, but we have to wait forever for the new Z. I wish everybody would stop buying SUV's so that car companies could devote resources to cars I want to buy.

basically the X-trail I understand is a cross between the silvia (SR20DET equipped car - turbocharged 240sx for us here in the US) and the nissan x-terra (we have here in the US).
so its just a x-terra with a souped up engine!

X-Trail gets my juices flowing...
... even though I generally HATE SUVs. I'll give you a little background info on this X-Trail.
It's a RAV4-sized mini-ute, but if you can navigate the Japanese site (took me forever to find it) you will see that it has
SR20VET with 280ps at 6000-ish rpms
It's transverse mounted methinks, so that will go into a FWD vehicle (just like the AWD DETs go into FWD Sentras and G20s).

I can't believe Nissan would offer the SR20VET in that little piece of crap. Nothing personal, maybe just my taste, but that thing looks like a Honda CR-V. Suzuki Samuri, anybody?
Inside looks very nice, though.
If it comes to the US, I'd be surprised if they offered anything more gutsy than the 240SX KA24DE engine (~155 HP). They hate Americans!

A lot of cars will be using the VQ in the future. For an SUV, if it had to be a 4-banger, I'd prefer it to be the KA24DE than the SR20DE. SUVs are supposed to tow and haul soccer kids, not race :-)
