Jalopnik: x-trail

Nissan X-Trail Fuel Cell Jumps Nurburgring Shark

There is no good reason at all for Nissan to take their fuel-cell-powered X-Trail to the Nordschleife, but that's what they've gone and done. An 11-minute, 58-second lap time and putting a fuel cell-powered SUV on the 'Ring are both patently ridiculous. Enough. Nissan, it was great when you blasted round the 'Ring with the GT-R, but now you've just Fonzied yourselves. [EdmundsInsideLine]

Tokyo Auto Salon: Nissan Preview

The Tokyo Auto Salon is the place where stock cars become rock stars. Have ever seen a Nissan Fuga? Have you ever seen a Nissan Fuga lowered to the floor and painted like a neon blue tiger shark? Then you've probably been to the Tokyo Auto Salon (or walked around Tokyo on acid). As a preview for the show, Nissan has released images of obviously tuned models without detailed descriptions. But who needs details when you can have descriptive names like the Nissan X-TRAIL X-TREMER edition?

Other models Nissan will bring to the show include a modified Skyline Coupe, Xanavi NISMO Z Super GT2007 racer, Endless Advan Z racer and the Dualis Premium concept. We look forward to the X-TREME X-TREMIST EDITION. Le Blog Auto via
