Face-lift for the T31 X-Trail (Series 3) - Including 2WD Version (Series 4)
Hi Guys,
Rumour has it that Nissan is planning to do a face-lift for the T31 X-Trail this year.
No details as to what the face-lift might include yet at this stage but I am in trying to find that out and will post detail here when known.

Re: Face-lift for the T31 X-Trail
Interesting, this may well be a series 3 or maybe a T32.
That means more accessories for us to fit to the series 1.
Keep digging Jalal.

Re: Face-lift for the T31 X-Trail
I think it makes sense for Nissan to update the T31. If you remember, the T30 was launched in 2001 (Series I) and the T30 (Series II) came out in 2004 (i.e. 3 years later), so if the same theory and time length is applied since the T31 launch in 2007, it is now indeed due for an upgrade.

Re: Face-lift for the T31 X-Trail
That wasn't really a Series II T31, it was just a variation of the Series I T31, just like it was the case with the T30 ST-R, ST-S and ST-X

Re: Face-lift for the T31 X-Trail
Hi Guys,
The rumour has now been confirmed and we can expect to see the T31 face-lift exy this year at the Sydney Motor Show in October as per THIS article.
More pics of the changes to the new face-lift exy which goes on sale in Japan on 17th of July this year can be seen HERE
The summary of the changes as follows:
Exterior
■Redesigned front grille, front bumper and headlights
■New LED combination taillights
■Redesigned 17-inch aluminum wheels, tire size changed to P225/60R17
■Choice of seven exterior colors, including Himalayan Khaki (Metallic) and Steel Blue (Metallic), among other exterior refinements
Interior
■"Vehicle Information Display" provided at the center of the meter panel - this display system is fitted with a drive computer function to indicate fuel consumption, cruising range, etc., a maintenance function to show the time to change engine oil and tires, and a warning information function to display various warnings
■Larger size meters
■Interior pillar color changed from gray to the same color as the instrument panel
■Cross seat material changed from space fabric to suede-like tricot
Mechanism and Equipment
■Newly adopted Advanced Hill Descent Control system (with a speed-setting function) for 4WD models - this system enables the driver to set his or her desired driving speed arbitrarily within the range from 4km/h to 15km/h, depending on the degree of hill grade
■Glove compartment with heat-retention and refrigerator functions adopted
■Three-point seatbelt and a headrest installed at the center of the rear seat as standard equipment
■Intelligent Key system + engine immobilizer provided as standard equipment (except for 20S)
■6-speed automatic transmission model added to the 20GT - features a highly distributed lean NOx trap catalyst dedicated to the diesel engine and a high-precision engine management system dedicated to the AT model
■18-inch aluminum wheels adopted on 20GT models
Full details HERE
Of importance to note that the diesel will now come in a new GT version!
Other big updates are the LED Tail Lights and am sure many of you are waiting for this. They look awesome!!
Also noted that Nissan decided to change the shape of the rear bumper (sand scoop) so hopefully this will address the earlier problem with the rear bumper being so low.
Exciting times a head.

Yes I'm in love with the taillights, looks like they will fit current model.
Look pricey though.

You just gotta have to wait until the Online Exy Shop sources them for a good deal
