The third generation X-Trail was unveiled at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. Based on the jointly developed Nissan/Renault Common Module Family (CMF) platform architecture, the vehicle is a common successor for the second generation X-Trail and the Rogue that is offered in North America. It enables the model to be available in 190 countries around the globe, a projection Nissan made during its launch. It ditches the boxy SUV looks in favour of an urban crossover looks and softer lines inspired from the Hi-Cross Concept.
