Rezorn86 3rd Gear July 22, 2014 Share July 22, 2014 (edited) previously Nissan remove xtrail cos they wanna focus on qashqai. but after qashqai come out with a +2 vesion, it makes abit of confusion. this year end like that, they decide to bring in xtrail to replace to qashqai+2. this cvt is diff from teana n sylphy, it does come with manual mode with 6 speed. any update for this launch event? how come nissan removed X-trail from product list? is it Qashqai/Murano the only suv of nissan in Singapore? NA, CVT quite disappointed US has release the new murano liao http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzGg6in3uZQ&list=UU6S0jAvcapqJ48ZzLfva12g Saw the new Qashqai this morning.. great looking front and rear lights.. I was looking at it from my rear view mirror and admiring it's front view. I did went to see the Murano 2weeks back however i found it very lacklustre. Nissan cars doors felt very light and don't have the conti "tut" sound. Very dated interior..Just my opinion..

Fuelsaver Supercharged July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 Test drove new qash today. Built in Uk according to SE. Drive - 1st gear move off felt slow but once moving is spirited if u floor pedal. Steering felt weighted n stable. Despite 19" rim, didn't felt as bumpy but don't over pump tyre pressure. Cornering should feel stable due to chassis control function. Seats quite firm but ok comfy. Media / Sound system - better than last version, vocal n music detail clear n bass thumps though w bit of hollowness, no mid adjustment only treble n bass. No GPS, DVD, touchscreen n rev cam but have Bluetooth n steering ctl. Built - soft touch dash w gear lever area orange ambient lighting, factory fitted leather seats, driver elect seat, pano moon roof, led n hid, rim design, color choice r to my liking. Didn't like long antenna; 6" or sharkfin type b nice if avail. Similar priced competitor = tucson n forester. Both have better sound quality, forester room size, pickup n handling best. Qash best exterior n interior looks n finishing. Tucson led light brightest. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to press also. yes, no diff from previous. hard to press & hard, unlike murano's. overall, i c some cost-cutting here n there like those i've mentioned, yet still call premium. one more thing, noted in the engine bay, rubber hoses line with another layer of cross-woven material, wc should further prevent them from hardening / leaking. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SE told me if fit will be done locally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yaloryalor 5th Gear July 25, 2014 Share July 25, 2014 20 region. Low so can max profit n can sell 135k. 135800 less 1k. The profit so high means they have potential to lower their margin. I kanna before, bought my Lancer CS3 at 81K with COE about 34K then 1 or 2 years later COE dropped only $20K but new car price dropped about 30K!
