![]() Nissan responded to this just as it did to the tidal wave of competition thrown against the five-seat-only third generation Qashqai model that shares virtually all of this car's engineering. So many in fact that by 2017, quite a few rival brands had piled into this SUV market sub-segment with fresh products aimed at meeting this demand, examples being the Skoda Kodiaq, the Peugeot 5008 and the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace. An awful lot of family buyers, it seemed, liked the idea of a mid-sized Qashqai-class crossover, but needed one with a little more space and the option of a third seating row. If you included the US market (where this car was badged as the 'Rogue'), by 2017 over three-quarters of a million X-Trails were being sold globally every year, which back then made this easily the brand's best selling vehicle worldwide. Which proved to be an inspired piece of product positioning. To leave space for that car, this third generation X-Trail, launched in 2014, was made a little bigger and given a 7-seat option. Back then, this model line competed in the section of the SUV market that Nissan by 2017 was covering with its hugely successful Qashqai. Brands who'd anticipated this phenomenon found themselves perfectly placed to take advantage of it and Nissan was one of them, having campaigned with the X-Trail crossover since 2001. In 2017, this was a model that found itself plumb in the middle of the new car market's trendy sweet spot, with sales of SUVs by then out-stripping those of every other segment. To consolidate its position, this third generation model was usefully improved three years after launch to create the car we're going to look at here. And back in 2017, this was the world's best selling one, the Nissan X-Trail. In this updated form, it was smarter, more sophisticated and better connected too. X-Trail buyers though, get significantly more space, with the option of seven seats in a model that's slightly tougher and more suitable for more adventurous families. The post-2017-era facelifted version of Nissan's third generation X-Trail matured very nicely as a family-sized SUV that sat just above the brand's popular Qashqai in the company's line-up and borrowed much of its technology from that best-selling car.
