Nissan X-Trail
Considered the originator of the crossover segment, the Nissan X-Trail launched with the somewhat boxy looks typical of its class in 2001.

Sharing an engine line-up with the Qashqai in the latest generation, it’s available with petrol and diesel engines, and as a manual or an automatic. Plus, there’s the option of two-wheel or four-wheel drive. A spacious family SUV with some off-roading credentials, the X-Trail is not afraid to get its wheels dirty when the need arises.
