is it true that the local nissan dealership will be bringing in the nissan x-trail here next year?

what are your comments bout this suv?

so they say... pero alam ko confirmed na na dadalhin yung x-trail dito...

maybe as an AUV... in which case, a bit stupid... parang CR-V. pero mas maliit pa yata sa cr-v yung x-trail e

wag sana namang gawin all-show-no-go...*sigh*

form over function mentality sucks!

Heto po ang alam ko (which could be very wrong):

UMC will bring in the X-Terra. Whether they will classify it as ang AUV is still unknown.

NMPI (basta yung car-department ng Nissan) will bring in the X-trail to compete with the Forester and RAV4. Medyo upmarket kumbaga.

Grabe! Nissan here in the phils will be shooting themselves in the foot if they release competing vehicles :|

pajerokid,

Yung X-terra truck chassis and will most probably be diesel powered like most of UMC's offerings.

Yung X-trail car chassis and gasoline powered for sure (UMC ang may hawak sa lahat ng diesels). Baka all-wheel-drive pa.

Parang Urvan at Vanette lang iyan.

otep::: if di sila magka-presyo, thats good. But from what i read in car mags, medyo nag-ooverlap ata price nila depending on trim levels.

Actually im looking forward to the xterra

pajerokid,

Baka nga mag-overlap. Consumer's choice na lang kung car-based or truck based sila.

Pero malamang makakuha ng tax-break ang Xterra if they pull off what Honda did to their CR-V.

The X trail is only a couple of inches smaller all around than the CRV. Goodluck to Univeral Motors in making ten people fit hehehehe

pajerokid,

Yung Xterra ang malamang gawing AUV. Yung Xtrail ilalaban sa Forester at RAV4.

But I still doubt 10 people inside an Xterra.

teka, teka...i am confused na po...ano po ba talaga ang iintroduce dito sa pinas x-terra or x-trail? ano ba ang difference sa kanila?

***OTEP*** · #12 11-02-2002, 12:02 AM

splukutum,

Dalawa kasi ang Nissan dito sa atin, eh. UMC which sells the Patrol, Urvan, Frontier and other truck based products and NMPI which sells the cars and car-based utilities like the AD Resort and AD Max.

Malamang po pareho silang maglalabas.

Xterra = UMC
Xtrail = NMPI

**pajerokid** · #14 11-02-2002, 12:18 AM

i bet you also dont know that NMPI is not operated by nissan in japan but rather nissan in taiwan. thats why we get the verita here.... a taiwanese variant of the nissan march. trivia lang

imposible 10 ka tao sa XTerra , 5 adult passengers lang kasya nito at wala
nga itong hidden third row seat . Parang Rodeo , Passport , Pathfinder ( US ) ito di ba ?
