Not that I know of, Nissan Xtrail is handled by NMPI which consists of most sedan fleets and gas powered. While UMC is the one handling the diesel engines. Besides, there will be conflicts if in any case UMC releases XTerrain which has diesel engine.
sayang no, sana may diesel version din dito. super mahal na talaga ng gas. sa europe, most cars have diesel variants. yes may diesel xtrail, Rav4, civic, corolla, etc. dun. kaka inggit.
malabo yatang ilabas yung diesel X-trail dito, although if nissan does, malaking advantage yun. the 2.2L diesel in the X-trail is a really powerful unit
jeff, honda uses isuzu sourced diesel engines for their cars. so far sa europe pa lang ang alam kong may diesel civic. pati rav4, etc.
sa thailand pala nakakita ako ng isuzu car na re-badged civic, pero gas powered. isuzu trades parts and engines, platforms, etc. with isuzu kasi.
honda has already designed and is producing its own diesel engine in-house, the 2.2L "i-CDT" four-cylinder turbodiesel. sa european accord palang yata available itong makina
astig yung diesel ng new BMW 530d! i remember, this year daw ata ilalabas yung Xterra ng Nissan, its a diesel powered SUV, same size ng frontier pick-up. Pati yung bagong Revo (looks like a hi lux surf).... so malabo na ilabas yung diesel x-trail dito.
about the diesel cars, i learned how to drive using a Nissan Sentra DX diesel, 1.7L, matulin, bagal lang acceleration pero can do 140kph din, bilis pa akyat sa sta. fe compared to petrol powered cars.
