The Nissan X-Trail has undergone a minor update ahead of its 2022 run, with the next-generation model set to launch later next year.
After an earlier update at the start of 2021, the diesel-powered TS has now been dropped from the line-up, replaced in the middle section of the range by the ST+, offering a stepping stone between the entry-level ST and the ST-L/Ti.
With Nissan offering its 2.5-litre petrol engine as standard, only the base ST can be purchased as a manual with a smaller 2.0-litre engine, priced well below the more powerful variants.

The entry-level ST remains unchanged in price while the other grades have received minor increases, as the new ST+ drops itself just above the base model.
Prices exclude on-road costs.
