• citroen says still look outdated and old to my taste (02 June 2010)
• Anonymouse says That'll be a long time coming, when Top Gear Philippines has the same resources as its foreign counterparts; that means access to race tracks to test a car's handling, long-term test drive fleets, and access to equipment to get accurate data for every vehicle tested. (02 June 2010)
• Anonymouse says To add, the article should say "UPDATED yet DOWNGRADED power ratings" ;p (02 June 2010)
• KRAM says nissan won't get it right unless they get the public's opinion. they should launch new products as soon as possible (a month to a year). hindi dapat 2-3 years ang launch. hindi naman bobo ang mga pinoy at dapat malaman ng NMPI yon. As for the mistake sa specs, nangyayari naman yan... (02 June 2010)
• Duesenberg35 says Go to Nissan website...same thing, it badly needs updating...anyway it reflects on their sales..lol (02 June 2010)
• jbits says SHIFT_brand hehe.. (02 June 2010)
• BOOGIECAT says Mas malala yung ginawang pasisinungaling noon ng Toyota Motor Philippines sa HP at Torque ratings ng previous generation Corolla Altis noon.145 HP DAW eh 118 HP lang pala!!At least ang Nissan aminado sa mistakes nila unlike TMPC na halos limang taon na sinasabi at nilalagay sa brochures nila 145 HP DAW ang 1.8 Altis noon!KAPAL!!Grabe ganda talaga ng new Nissan X-Trail!ITS BIGGER AND MUCH BETTER! (02 June 2010)
• Banana says Bigger and Better but it still looks the same... PASS! I am waiting for the RVR now that's more exciting! (02 June 2010)
• cristan says they should have updated it totally, it really does not look new to me! hey nissan people time to wake up!,.. or else your cars will be sitting ducks! @ topgear ph. - still the most reliable auto magazine in the country!God bless and more power! (02 June 2010)
• BOOGIECAT says Banana mahal ang RVR at ilalampaso lang ng Tucson at Sportage yan!LOL!!Why bother buying a SUV na worth 1.3 Million na ang engine lang ay 1.8 Liter MIVEC tulad ng RVR?PASS NALANG!!! (02 June 2010)
• Cali says To be fair to BC, its not just Nissan that introduces the nexgen vehicles late (New X-Trail released in 2008) the Lancer EX currently being sold here also was released the same year. Cruze since 2007, etc etc...BTW, the X-Trail was japans best selling SUV for the 2nd straight year in 2009, but is slighty behind the new Outlander the first qtr in japan.. (02 June 2010)
• KRAM says @ BOOGIECAT, ung 1.8l engine of the Altis ay configured kaya bumaba ang HP ratings (02 June 2010)
• BOOGIECAT says Mas suwerte pa tayo sa Nissan Taiwan-Yulon at nakuha na natin kaagad ang new X-Trail kaagad.The old X-Trail 2 Liter variant will still be available AFAIK! (02 June 2010)
• KRAM says Honestly, di ko maramdaman ang swerte natin pagdating sa Nissan products. just checked the taiwanese site of nissan; http://www.nissan.com.tw/. Luma rin ang kanilang X-Trail but meron silang Rogue, Tiida, GT-R at 370Z. E dito pati ung revised Urvan Estate wala pa rin. (02 June 2010)
• michael says @Cali yes,that is true,new cars are introduced to us a little late than other countries but the cruze was introduced in 2008,not 2007 and I think it's not acceptable that they bring the xtrail 2 or 3 yrs later than other countries. (02 June 2010)
• tim yang says this is just part of their marketing strategy. NISSAN SHIFT TO CONFUSE (02 June 2010)
• Banana says The new (old na sa totoo lang, new satin pero old na sa ibang bansa) Sentra 200 is getting cold shoulders, *****.com even gave it a ONE STAR rating! This will likely be the same case! (02 June 2010)
• BOOGIECAT says Wag kayong maniwala sa Motioncraps dahil biased yan sa Mazda na laging overpriced!LOL!!Di pa naman nila nasusubukan yung Sentra 200 eh binanatan kaagad,yan ang biased!!Mahal ang Nissan Rogue kaya di na dinala rito at FLOP yan sa Taiwan.Yung GT-R at 370Z eh sobrang mahal at magiging kapresyo din yan ng mga nasa grey market,Tiida?Mukhang Honda City na luma yan kaya di na dinala rito.KRAM BULAG KA LANG!Two years lang late ang Nissan X-Trail.Naalala ko halos two years din late noon ang X-Trail pero naging patok to sa market at nilampaso ang CRV at RAV-4! (02 June 2010)
• maranello_5775 says @boogiecat, the power output for the previous(and phased out current)1.8liter altis is corrected from 145hp to 132hp not 145hp-118hp,the 1.6 variant however were measured from 116hp to 109hp. I also heard that the figures were accurate for the previous gen ASEAN corolla altis but not for the current gen corolla altis because the engine was detuned for better fuel economy although it is the same ZZ series engine.By the way ZR dual vvti equipped 1.6 variants were soon to be launch here(facelifted altis)following the dual vvti equipped 2.0V grade. (02 June 2010)
• hhhhmmmm... says tao lang sila. nagkakamali hehe. basta mukhang luma pa rin ang x-trail! (02 June 2010)
• Juan Miguel Mendoza says at least mabilis. @ BC dahan-dahan ka sa pagsasalita mo dyan sa RVR. wla ako sa mood makipag-argue. buti nga pinupuri ko pa ang X-trail dahil sa bilis. isa pa hindi ordinaryong 1.8L MIVEC ang nasa ilalim ng hood ng RVR. hndi isang mabagal kumilos na 1.8L gasoline engine ang nasa RVR hnd katulad ng daing altis na sinasabi mong 118 HP lng. talagang salbahe talaga ang toyota. magsinungaling ba nmn. (02 June 2010)
• Nirvana says laging nasa balita ang nissan kaya lang puro kapalpakan ang mga pinaggagawa sa mundo mo cguro boogiecat mabenta ang xtrail hahahahah lakas ng sayad ni boogiecat saka nagsasabi naman ng totoo ang ***** kaya one star lang ang nissan sentra talo p ng mga chinese cars n 2 stars wala ng pag asa ang nissan mo boogiecat talon k n lang sa tulay isa lang hibang LOL!!! (02 June 2010)
• Juan Miguel Mendoza says Mas ok padin yung Mitsubishi compare sa nissan. No.2 ata kami sa ranking! Xtrail parang luma talaga. kitang kita na isa diyan di padin matangap. (03 June 2010)
• grabs says grabe anung malaking pinag bago ng xtrail? ang tagal tagal tapos ganun lang?? anung ginawa nila? nag bakasyon ng 5 taon tapos bag balik nila konteng remediyo, edit at pinalaki lang kaunti. Walang WOW factor tong X-Trail. (03 June 2010)
• Jaime says The Mechanical Engineering Lab in UP Diliman has a dynamometer the last time I was there. I wonder if they rent it out? (03 June 2010)
• josh says NISSAN!! bakeeeet! ba't mo pinabayaan sarili mo!! (03 June 2010)
• sachiel says Wala tayo magagawa kasi malakas pa benta ng Xtrail sa Australia and Africa. Pero tingin ko mas bebenta yun Qashqai dito compared sa Xtrail kasi mas bagay sa city driving yun Qashqai. Suprisingly, kaya pa ng 2nd gen Xtrail sumabay or in cases exceed the 3rd gen CRV kaya di pa rin outdated yun Xtrail till now. (03 June 2010)
• ANTI BOOGIECAT says ewwww (03 June 2010)
• Chandler says Nsan na ang Euro-diesel version ng X-trail!!! since 2002 binebenta ito sa UK tapos dito gasoline engine parin!!! (03 June 2010)
• Abno si BOOGIECAT says Besides ewwwww... it's peeeee eeewww. (03 June 2010)
• manong taxi says Gusto ko lang talaga sa NISSAN ay AIRCON :bd lahat naman siguro tayo agree sa aircon ng nissan pero agree din tayo na luma pa din itsura ng x-trail kamukha niya pa din ang model na unang lumabas dati dito sa pinas. (03 June 2010)
• Abno si BOOGIECAT says ako naman gusto ko sa Nissan ay si BOOGIECAT sarap asarin kasi mga comments niya kasinungalingan saya saya namin kung nababara siya at tinutukso, stress reliever siya sobra... (03 June 2010)
• BOOGIECAT says Nirvana HIBANG KA DAHIL MATATALO NA NANG BAGONG X-TRAIL ANG CRV AT RAV-4 MO!,Toyota na number one sa recall,yan ang PANIS!!HAHAA.JMM number 2 lang ang MMPC dahil most nang sales nila ay galing sa SOBRANG BULOK AT OVERPRICED na L300 at Adventure,alisin nila yan at pupulutin sa kangkungan ang MMPC(ibig sabihin yata ng MMPC ay Mitsubishi Maraming Panis na Cars!!)LOL!!Wag ka nang umasang matatalo ng RVR ang ang Tucson dahil walang diesel nyan at OVERPRICED YAN!!HAHAHAHA!! (03 June 2010)
• cars says nissan IS A DNA JAPAN CAR MANUFACTURER DI TAIWAN, CHINA, THAILAND OR ETC. OK (03 June 2010)
• Mamang Tsuper says On a scale of 1 to 10 I will give Nissan a 10 for the effort but only 5 for the Xtrail. It's good but kinda LATE. Let's see how it performs lalo na ngayong rainy season saka sira sirang kalsada. (03 June 2010)

(03 June 2010)
• Banana says @manong tsuper how can u give Nissan 10 for effort when they sell cars here 3-4 years after they have been released abroad? Buti pa Toyota and Honda halos paglabas sa abroad a few months later meron na tayo! Ford din, san na yung Fiesta ilabas nyo na!!! (03 June 2010)
• BOOGIECAT says Banana halos two-three years lang late ang sa Nissan pero mababago nayan lalo na priority na tayo ng Nissan Motor Of Japan.Ang Toyota at Honda naman eh sablay parin ang product lineup nila(nasaan na ang Toyota Rush at Honda Freed?!!!).Ang Mazda at Ford laging two-three years late din(yung bagong Mazda3 eh sobrang delayed na).Nirvana walang kwenta yang kalawangin na L300 at Adventure,mga UNGAS LANG ANG BUMIBILI NYAN TULAD MO!LOL!!Grabe panalo talaga ang new Nissan X-Trail! (03 June 2010)
• southboy says sana makina na lang ng navarra ang nilagay dito.. pag nangyari un.. sa kangkungan na lang pupulutin ang ibang suv.. at pang sabotahe pa yan sa much awaited (or mga mitsucr*ps lang??) na rvr.. but still, a 500% improvement in the interior of this xtrail.. (03 June 2010)

• Juan Miguel Mendoza says ok boogiecat ubos na pasensya ko. ang nissan x-trail NABUBULOK NA SA IBANG BANSA HABANG BAGO PA LNG SA ATIN! buti pa ang Mitsu, Honda at Toyota ilang months lng nadedelay(knock on wood). nandyan pa ang konting accent ng lumang x-trail. ang headlights pinalaki lng ng konti pati ang tailmps pinahaba lng. interior lng ang tingin ko na maayos dyan sa bagong x-trail. pasensya ka na boogiecat inubos mo na pasensya ko. buti pa si Ben10. @hhhhmmmm wag mo na pansinin si BC kaya nga maraming galit dyan. (04 June 2010)

• KRAM says @BOOGIECAT, ikaw ang walang kwenta at Bulag. Dahil tama ako sa sinabi ko, you are now stating that the Rogue was a flop in taiwan and the Tiida a crappy City look-a-like. What a disgrace?! Ipakita mo nga ang sales figures ng Rogue at magbigay ka ng proofs na magkamukha ang City at Tiida. Hindi ko talaga malaman kung bakit ang init ng mata mo sa Honda at Toyota (hindi nila kailangan iparating ang Freed at Rush respectively dito dahil magcre-create to ng competition within products at di naman ganun kalaki ang RP Market). May tanong lang po ako, bakit napakabitter mo sa Ford, Toyota at Honda, pinatay ba nila pamilya mo? Nawalan ka ba ng trabaho dahil sa kanila? Wala na kasi sa logic ang paninira mo sa kanila. Ako may dahilan kung bakit inis ako sa Nissan and that's because palaging late at delayed ang pagdating ng products nila dito (the X-Trail two years late, 2008; the new Teana two years din, 2008; the Senta three years late, 2007; Ung Urvan nga last year of production na, wala pa dito ung facelifted version; Ung new Serena, five years late; since 2005). (04 June 2010)
• kaycee says @KRAM - alam mo yung mga ABNO like BOOGIECAT wala ng nakikitang rason yan so no use asking. Yung ka abnormalan niya inborn na yan, nasa pamilya at dugo na yan. Alam mo yung mga special child na ng huhubad at naliligo sa public fountain? yan mismo si BOOGIECAT... Naiimagine ko na nga siya right now nasa fountain ng trinoma naka hubad nanaman... hay naku... (04 June 2010)
• KRAM says @kaycee hahahahaha :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) hindi na yata ako makatitigil sa kakatawa! (04 June 2010)
• xxx says http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJKn8pMHWjc&feature=related a review of the nissan xtrail india, it gets 7/10 exterior, 8/10 interior, 9/10 engine and driving (04 June 2010)
• toruk says @xxx- Hahaha India... eh sina samba nila kalabaw nila diyan eh... (04 June 2010)
• hhhhmmmm... says kram wag mo na lang patulan yang si boogiecat. desperado na kasi ang nissan kaya pilit niya itong binabangon hehe. galit yan sa honda kasi malakas ang sales despite na walang commercial vehicles sa line-up nila, saka prestigious. sa toyota siguro dahil number 1 sa sales. (05 June 2010)
• hay! says bago ba to!? looks old! (05 June 2010)
• Juan Miguel Mendoza says bkt nawawala na si Boogiecat? nabangungot dahil napanaginipan nya na mabenta ang x-trail? hehehehe. @boogiecat 1.8L DI-D turbo-diesel ang diesel engine ng RVR PERIOD! (07 June 2010)
• arville says Tsk tsk.. (08 June 2010)
