It’s style by name and style by nature for the new special edition of the X-Trail crossover which features many of the car’s most desirable accessories. Using the range-topping Tekna grade as its starting point, the long list of additional equipment includes alloy sports pedals, chrome door sills, chrome mirror caps, a chrome finisher on the lower boot and striking 19-inch Black Ibiscus alloy wheels. In addition, there’s extra protective trim on the boot lip and a practical boot floor mat.

The high level of specification included on Tekna trim means a wide range of Nissan’s easy-to-use infotainment technology is already featured on the car. It’s accessed via the intuitive NissanConnect seven-inch touch-screen. Also standard is a comprehensive suite of real-world safety systems, including Nissan Safety Shield with Around View Monitor, Forward Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Warning and Traffic Signal Recognition. Nissan’s innovative Intelligent Park Assist is also fitted.

Leather upholstery on the seats, which are electrically adjustable and heated for the driver and front passenger, is included, plus there’s a leather steering wheel, leather gear selector and satin-finish roof rails.

The X-Trail is the most versatile crossover in Nissan’s range and is available with either five or seven seats, and is equipped with an innovative Luggage Board System as standard. This enables owners to adjust the boot shelves and dividers to create 18 different cargo-carrying configurations. For genuine every day practicality, there’s a one-touch automatic opening power tailgate.

The Style Edition is available now, priced from £29,405 and offered with the 1.6-litre dCi 130 diesel or 1.6-litre DIG-T 163 petrol engines. Both come with engine start/stop to minimise emissions and fuel use, and there’s a choice of two and four-wheel drive, along with manual or Xtronic transmissions.
