You've done a great job with this review. We have a 2010 XTrail STL that's done over 250000km but it's now getting on after 12 years of faithful and reliable service. We were very keen to get a T33 XTrail STL but the newer Mitsubishi Outlander was also on our short-list. We extensively compared the XTrail STL with the Outlander LS and LS Black Edition as well as the Aspire. Whilst the XTrail has the nice, easy to clean artificial leather seats with front seat warmers as well as the 360 degree camera, the all the Outlanders from LS upwards have built in satellite navigation, wireless phone charging, Apple wireless carplay, auto rain wipers, 5+2 seats when required and a larger boot space when the 3rd row seats are down. The LS black edition adds suede leather seats with front seat warmers whilst the Aspire adds a larger infotainment display, automatic tailgate and the 360 degree camera as also featured in the STL. What Mitsubishi has to offer over Nissan is the way more generous 10 year conditional warranty and 15000km capped price servicing which are much cheaper than Nissan's more stingy 5 year warranty and capped price servicing every 10000km. Whilst we really loved the STL, we managed to negotiate a good deal with our local Mitsubishi dealer on an Outlander Aspire that wasn't much more than the STL with that much better warranty and 15K servicing. If Nissan offered the same or similar warranty along with more affordable 15000km capped price servicing, it would have been much more difficult to decide which one to go for! Nissan really need to get more competitive regarding length of warranty and offering more competitive 15000km capped price servicing. We love the XTrail but we're now going to Outlander because we get more car for a similar price.

I’m in the US and this is badged as a Rogue. Nonetheless, the 2.5L engine (engine code PR25DD) in this example was only used for the 2021 model year and the Altima since 2019 thru today. Starting in 2022, the US-spec variant of the X-Trail replaced the 4-cylinder with a 1.5L turbocharged 3-cylinder petrol engine (engine code KR15) which is way more torquey, but we’ve seen some of these engines blowing up and punching a hole through the side of the engine block. They are great engines if you don’t push them too hard and you maintain them right. Thought I’d share because you guys are lucky to have the more reliable engine and I happen to be a Nissan technician, too.

Looking at drive mode selector...I guess it's ST not STL

It’s an ST-L front wheel drive. All Wheel Drive models in both ST and ST-L have the extra modes.
