Nissan X-Trail 2017 vs Mitsubishi Outlander 2015
| Gearbox: | Manual | Manual | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine: | 1.7 Diesel | 2.0 Petrol | |
| Diesel (Nissan X-Trail) engines typically outperform gasoline engines in terms of fuel efficiency and low-end torque. This makes them more economical and better suited for towing or long-distance travel. However, gasoline (Mitsubishi Outlander) engines mostly are lighter, quieter, and offer better acceleration and responsiveness, especially in smaller vehicles. For more information, see the article "Diesel or Petrol: Fuel Economy and Key Differences." | |||

| Power: | 150 HP | 150 HP | |
| Torque: | 340 NM | 195 NM | |
| Acceleration 0-100 km/h: | 10.7 seconds | 10.6 seconds | |
| Nissan X-Trail and Mitsubishi Outlander have the same engine power, but Nissan X-Trail torque is 145 NM more than Mitsubishi Outlander. Nissan X-Trail reaches 100 km/h speed 0.1 seconds later. | |||
Fuel consumption | |||
| Fuel consumption (l/100km): | 5.4 | 6.7 | |
| Real fuel consumption: | 7.1 l/100km | 8.1 l/100km | |
|
The Nissan X-Trail is a better choice when it comes to fuel economy. By specification Nissan X-Trail consumes 1.3 litres less fuel per 100 km than the Mitsubishi Outlander, which means that by driving the Nissan X-Trail over 15,000 km in a year you can save 195 litres of fuel. By comparing actual fuel consumption based on user reports, Nissan X-Trail consumes 1 litres less fuel per 100 km than the Mitsubishi Outlander. | |||
| Fuel tank capacity: | 60 litres | 63 litres | |
| Full fuel tank distance: | 1110 km in combined cycle | 940 km in combined cycle | |
| 1220 km on highway | 1100 km on highway | ||
| 840 km with real consumption | 770 km with real consumption | ||
| Nissan X-Trail gets more mileage on one fuel tank. | |||

| Ground clearance: | 210 mm (8.3 inches) | 190 mm (7.5 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Nissan X-Trail can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Nissan X-Trail version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. Choose from six 4x4 versions of Nissan X-Trail 2017 if off-road driveability is important to you. | |||
Engines | |||
| Average engine lifespan: | 420'000 km | 350'000 km | |
| Engine resource depends largely on regular maintenance and the quality of the oils and fuels used, but under equal conditions the average life of a Nissan X-Trail engine could be longer. | |||
| Engine production duration: | 10 years | 14 years | |
| Engine spread: | Installed on at least 6 other car models, including Nissan Qashqai, Renault Scenic, Renault Megane | Used only for this car | |
| In general, the longer and for more car models an engine is produced, the better its serviceability and availability of spare parts. | |||
| Hydraulic tappets: | yes | no | |
| The Nissan X-Trail engine has hydraulic tappets (lifters), providing quieter operation and no need for periodic adjustment, but they are more complex in design and can cause serious engine damage in case of failure. | |||
Dimensions | |||
| Length: | 4.69 m | 4.70 m | |
| Width: | 1.82 m | 1.80 m | |
| Height: | 1.70 m | 1.68 m | |
| Both cars are similar in size. Nissan X-Trail and Mitsubishi Outlander are practically the same length. | |||
| Seats: | 7 seats | 5 seats | |
| Trunk capacity: | 135 litres | 550 litres | |
| Trunk capacity with 7 seats: | 135 litres | no data | |
| Trunk capacity with 5 seats: | 550 litres | 550 litres | |
| Trunk max capacity: with rear seats folded down, if possible |
1877 litres | 1754 litres | |
| The maximum boot capacity (with all rear seats folded down) is larger in Nissan X-Trail (by 123 litres). | |||
| Turning diameter: | 11.2 meters | 10.6 meters | |
| The turning circle of the Nissan X-Trail is 0.6 metres more than that of the Mitsubishi Outlander, which means Nissan X-Trail can be harder to manoeuvre in tight streets and parking spaces. | |||
