Is there any difference between a diesel and a petrol, in terms of performance?


Not sure if this is the right forum, or if another was better suited.

I'm currently looking at two X-Trails. Both of them are same transmission (Auto), same engine size (2.5L), same year (2012)... The only difference between them is the fuel they use.

I'm wondering, is there any CITY DRIVING performance differences between the two engine types? Or is it worth saying that the vehicles would perform identically?

Thanks.

Re:


That doesn't sound right, so you will need to do a bit more research on the forum to familiarise yourself with the specs of the xtrails, as the diesel version doesn't come in 2.5 litre and the auto transmission is completely different between the diesel and petrol T31 xtrails.

Petrol T31 CVT xtrail is more suited for city driving.

Diesel T31 6 speed auto is more suitable for long distance driving or city driving with frequent highway mix.

The diesel xtrail has more torque.
