New Nissan X-Trail 2020 pricing and specs detailed: Minor update for Mazda CX-5 rival arrives

The X-Trail has been treated to a small update for MY20.

Nissan Australia has released a minor MY20 update for its X-Trail mid-size SUV, with some variants ushering in additional standard equipment in exchange for price rises.

Excluding the sole N-Sport version, all X-Trail variants are $150 more expensive, with the range now kicking off from $30,040 plus on-road costs and topping out at $48,490 (see full pricing table below).

To compensate buyers for their extra spend, the mid-range ST-L and flagship Ti and TL versions have gained rear parking sensors, although the entry-level ST and TS variants continue to miss out on the safety feature. No other changes have been made.

As before, the Mazda CX-5 rival is available the choice of five or seven seats, and front- or all-wheel drive, depending on the grade.

Three four-cylinder engines are on offer: a 106kW/200Nm 2.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol, a 126kW/226Nm 2.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol, and a 130kW/380Nm 2.0-litre turbo-diesel.

The former is mated to a six-speed manual, while the latter two are matched to a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT).

Head of Editorial
Justin’s dad chose to miss his birth because he wanted to watch Peter Brock hopefully win Bathurst, so it figures Justin grew up to have a car obsession, too – and don’t worry, his dad did turn up in time after some stern words from his mum. That said, despite loving cars and writing, Justin chose to pursue career paths that didn’t lend themselves to automotive journalism, before eventually ending up working as a computer technician. But that car itch just couldn’t be scratched by his chipped Volkswagen Golf R (Mk7), so he finally decided to give into the inevitable and study a Master of Journalism at the same time. And even with the long odds, Justin was lucky enough to land a full-time job as a motoring journalist soon after graduating and the rest, as they say, is history. These days, Justin happily finds himself working at CarsGuide during the biggest period of change yet for the automotive industry, which is perhaps the most exciting part of all. In case you’re wondering, Justin begrudgingly sold the Golf R (sans chip) and still has plans to buy his dream car, an E46 BMW M3 coupe (manual, of course), but he is in desperate need of a second car space – or maybe a third.
