I had a really good closeup look at the X-Trail last week. It sure has a lot of very very nice features. You know the "little things"...
For example of the "little things" the door bottom has a "lip" which extends down over the rocker panel so the actual rocker panel never gets dirty. So when you clime out of the thing and your pants touch the car they don't get all dirty.
Another nice thing is reclining rear seats. And room enough under the front seats so that a rear seat passenger can literally stretch right out.
It is about the same size as a Honda CR-V inside but nicer appointments. So on the small size.
There are reports of great gas mileage too. But the thing does not have enough torque to pull anything
I need more oomphf.
