The jury of the Women’s World Car of the Year (WWCOTY) 2023 has awarded Nissan X-Trail the title of Best Large SUV 2023 for its thirteenth edition. WWCOTY, the only international award made up exclusively of women automotive journalists, praised the new X-Trail for its spaciousness, effortless driving performance and electrified power train, e-POWER.
The new Nissan X-Trail is an electrified seven-seater SUV with e-POWER technology and a twin-motor e-4ORCE all-wheel drive system. It features a high-output battery and powertrain integrated with a variable compression ratio petrol engine, power generator, inverter, and 150kW front electric motor. This unique power train means that power to the wheels comes only from an electric motor, resulting in an instant, linear response to the accelerator.
The X-Trail is a successful global vehicle with sales in over 100 markets and has been enabling family adventures for over 20 years. It has been awarded Best Large SUV and has been shortlisted for the WWCOTY, Best Car of the Year 2023, to be announced on 8 March. Speaking about the accolade, Makoto Uchida, Nissan’s CEO, said:“ We took the voices of our female customers into consideration throughout the design and development process, so we’re particularly proud that the jury of eminent female automotive journalists from all over the world has recognized the X-Trail’s talents.”
