Nissan X-Trail Hybrid (JDM-spec)
Gets standard Forward Emergency Braking
Nissan is introducing a hybrid version of the X-Trail
crossover in Japan which will effectively go on sale May 13.
It looks virtually the same as the regular model but comes
with vertical LED fog lights and "pure drive hybrid" badges while the central
display between the two instrument gauges now shows typical hybrid information.
The X-Trail Hybrid uses a four-cylinder, 2.0-liter engine combined
with an electric motor, a lithium-ion battery pack and an XTRONIC transmission.
The conventional engine delivers 147 HP (108 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 207 Nm (153
lb-ft) of torque at 4,400 rpm while the electric motor generates 41 HP (30 kW)
and an instant torque of 160 Nm (118 lb-ft).
Compared to a regular X-Trail, the Hybrid model has 75%
fewer NOx and NMHC (non-methane hydrocarbons) emissions and has a fuel
consumption of 20.6 km/L (48.4 mpg US or 4.8 liters / 100 km) in the JC08
cycle.
It comes as standard with a Forward Emergency Braking system
which will be offered on all JDM-spec Nissan models starting this fall. Other
changes compared to a regular X-Trail include a regenerative braking system,
aerodynamically-optimized floor and low-rolling resistance tires to cut fuel
consumption even further.
Prices kick off at 2,804,760 JPY (about $23,400) for the
two-wheel drive version and rise to 3,240,000 JPY (about $27,000) for the 4WD
model in Black Xtreamer-X guise.
