2021 Nissan X-Terra made its debut in Middle East

Nissan has unveiled the updated version of its Terra SUV which is based on Navara pickup, for the Middle East. The badge has been changed to X-Terra and it gets a comprehensive redesign, which is expected to hit the ASEAN markets as a facelift of the current model.

Getting inside the car, one can notice pronounced changes as it now gets a completely new dashboard. If we look closely then it can be said that it has taken a lot of inspiration from different models such as the Micra, Leaf, and Almera. The interior now completely differs from Navara as it comes with a robust horizontal design along with upscale looking switchgear.

Talking about the exterior, it has received a completely new front fascia that gains inspiration from the Patrol and Navara. It also flaunts C-shaped LED headlights along with quad ice cube-like projectors, larger V-motion grille, vertical fog light surrounds, an upturned center air intake, and fake front fender vents.

The rear has also received styling changes such as reshaped taillights, reprofiled bumpers,  an arch-shaped chrome strip, sporting wider reflectors, and more. The brand also offers seven different color schemes and 17-18 inches alloy wheel options for the model. 

Under the hood, it gets a QR25DE 2.5-litre four-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol engine, which is capable of putting out a maximum power of 165 hp at 6,000 rpm and a peak torque of 241 Nm at 4,000 rpm. It comes mated to a seven-speed automatic gearbox and the carmaker claims a fuel economy figure of 11.4 km per litre.

Other features offered in the update include a USB-C port, Qi wireless charging, climate controls for each seating row along with a Bose sound system option, and an optional HDMI-equipped 11-inch flip-down monitor. It comes equipped with standard safety features such as lane departure warning, autonomous emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alert, blind-spot monitoring, and a 360-degree camera system. It will go on sale across the Middle East from December 2020.
