On September 30 last year, AM Mirror purchased a new generation of X-Trail VC-Turbo 300 CVT 4WD Extreme Edition model, and at that time, it also released a car pick-up video and later a vehicle first insurance video. Now, the vehicle has traveled 9100 kilometers, before running to 10,000 kilometers, let's talk to you about the actual use of this car.
It is worth mentioning that at the end of 2021, we also drove a new generation of Qijun to Beijing-Changbai Mountain self-driving tour, and then drove it from Beijing back to Dandong, Liaoning Province for the Spring Festival. Many long-distance car experiences have given us a deeper understanding of the quality of this car.
Why choose the new generation of X-Trail
In fact, the choice of the new generation of X-Trail is not an accidental behavior, when the family did need a larger space SUV to meet the daily travel and work needs. Just before that, we also participated in the test drive of the new generation of Qi Jun and left a good impression. At the same time, the first car in my life is also Nissan's Xuanyi, there is no problem in use, worry-free, fuel-saving, leather, durable is my impression of Nissan. So, when I needed an SUV, I chose the new generation of X-Trail.
Domineering appearance strong through ability
Let's take a brief look at the exterior and interior of the new generation of X-Trail. In terms of appearance, the new generation of X-Trail adopts the "V-Motion 3.0" design language, and the grille of the front face is much larger than that of the previous generation model, making the entire front face look more domineering. In addition, the starship-style split headlights are highly recognizable after being lit during the day.
On the side of the body, a double waist line design is adopted, and the black wheel arch shape is matched with the black lower edge design to prevent scratching. The new car is 4681/1840/1730mm in length, width and height, with a wheelbase of 2706mm, and a 19-inch two-color five-frame wheel, the proportions are very harmonious. In addition, the new generation of X-Trail has a leading 212mm minimum ground clearance, coupled with the second generation of 4X4-i intelligent all-mode four-wheel drive and the second generation of B-LSD electronic limited slip differential, even if it encounters some ordinary SUVs can not pass the bad road, can also pass smoothly. This am car mirror has a deep understanding, some time ago when changbai mountain self-driving tour, at that time encountered a road with thick snow, the new generation of Qijun can easily cope.
Another point that has to be said is that the space performance of the new generation of X-Trail is also quite good, my children especially like the spacious rear space of X-Trail, no matter how to lie down when traveling for a long time, it is comfortable, and the space in the trunk is also very good, which is a weapon for returning home for the New Year.
The interior is highly tech-conscious and the configuration is smarter
In terms of interior, the new generation of X-Trail has a stronger sense of technology and a smarter configuration than the previous generation. Moreover, the physical button design of the interior is very in line with the current logic of the use of Chinese people, and it is very easy to use. In addition, the new generation of X-Trail is also a plus in terms of seats, after all, the "Nissan sofa" is not a waste of time, and the front seat of the vehicle is also equipped with electric adjustment, the main driver's seat and waist support adjustment, so that even if it is a long drive, it will not feel tired.
In terms of intelligent configuration, the new generation of X-Trail also adopts a 12.3-inch full-color LCD instrument, a 12.3-inch 6-core HD central control screen and a 10.8-inch double-layer curved HUD head-up display system, thus forming a three-screen linkage. Among them, the 12.3-inch central control screen adopts the new Nissan Connect super intelligent connection 2.0 car machine system, which is also very convenient to use, supporting voice interaction, Car Networking, OTA upgrade, 360 ° panoramic image, front and rear reversing radar, car home interconnection, remote start and other functions. Among them, the remote start function is a good configuration, especially in the cold winter, start the air conditioner in advance, and the personnel can have the warmth of spring on the car, which is a very comfortable experience.
In addition, the new generation of X-Trail also has a good performance in the intelligent safety configuration, equipped with ProPILOT super intelligent driving and NISSN i-SAFETY intelligent active safety system, in addition to equipped with lane keeping assistance system, parallel line assistance, lane departure warning system, road traffic sign recognition, active braking, fatigue driving reminder, full speed adaptive cruise, automatic parking and other conventional functions, but also equipped with intelligent car following, smooth braking, identification of stationary vehicles, over-the-horizon collision warning, High-level functions such as throttle mispression correction.
Moreover, it can also open the enhanced ProPILOT super intelligent driving through the multi-function steering wheel, which can adapt to cruise in the speed range of 0-144km/h, effectively alleviating driving fatigue.
Powerful and more fuel efficient
In terms of power, the new generation of X-Trail adopts Nissan's unique VC-Turbo ultra-variable engine 300 variable compression ratio 1.5T turbocharged engine, the maximum power is 150kW (204 horsepower), the maximum torque reaches 300N·m, such power data can be fully comparable to most of the 2.0T engines on the market. At the same time, the engine can also adjust the compression ratio range according to the amplitude of the throttle, switching continuously from 14:1 to 8:1, and the efficiency can be increased by 30%. In layman's terms, when the vehicle is running smoothly, the power output required may not be too high, and the compression ratio of this engine is 14:1, which is more fuel-efficient. However, when the vehicle is in the acceleration overtaking, the compression ratio of the vehicle will automatically adjust to the state of 8:1, and the power output will be more powerful. Coupled with the CVT intelligent stepless gearbox with a high transmission ratio of 8.2:1, the engine can always maintain the highest thermal efficiency, and the CVT gearbox can also intelligently adjust the speed of the vehicle according to the power output of the engine, so that the vehicle can always maintain the ideal power output area at the same time, but also take into account the fuel economy.
After more than 9,000 kilometers of AM car mirrors, its fuel consumption data was obtained: the average fuel consumption of 100 kilometers of such a large SUV model was about 7L, and now due to the transportation of children to and from school, the traffic jam is more serious, and the average fuel consumption of 100 kilometers has risen to 8.2L. Previously, in the section of the national road where there was no congestion but only some traffic lights, the AM car mirror often consumed a single driving fuel to less than 5 liters of 100 kilometers, such as 4.8 liters. This performance is very satisfactory.
AM Mirror Summary:
After 5 months, more than 9,000 kilometers of actual measurement, the performance of the new generation of Qijun can be said to be unexpected, whether it is intelligent configuration or power performance is very good, of course, the appearance and interior I also like very much, but this depends on personal aesthetics. And before everyone was more criticized three-cylinder engine, the performance is not bad, even better than some four-cylinder engines, the reason why everyone expressed such a strong rejection of the three-cylinder engine, is nothing more than that in the past few years, some car companies in the technology is not mature, the launch of some models, resulting in some problems, so that everyone formed a non-positive cognition.
And this VC-Turbo super variable engine 300 variable compression ratio engine, in fact, Nissan spent a lot of energy to develop, in order to cope with the increasingly severe car emission requirements, which is the same reason that we are now vigorously promoting new energy vehicles. When new energy vehicles first began to be listed a few years ago, everyone was also quite rejected, but now? Sales are getting higher and higher. Therefore, we can try to look at the problem with the perspective of development, continuously improve cognition, and do not be limited by the inherent ideas, after all, science and technology will develop, technology will only become more and more mature, the new generation of X-Trail is a good example.
