Welcome to the Kia Sportage vs Nissan X-Trail comparison for 2021. It’s the last of the old X-Trail comparisons and the start of, at least a few more comparisons before we lose interest. The X-Trail has been one of the better looking SUVs on sale in the last 6-8 years. It was nice inside and outside for its time. A new one will be here next year, so how does it compare to the all new Kia Sportage?<\/p>\n

Kia Sportage vs Nissan X-Trail exterior: The Sportage is clearly an evolution of the basic Nissan X-Trail design – the more we look at it. We didn’t see at first but once we did this comparison it was unmissable The Sportage is a good looking SUV in its own way except for the seemingly unfinished rear end treatment. In comparison the outgoing X-Trail design is still OK to look at but it is dated compared to the Sportage.<\/p>\n

Kia Sportage vs Nissan X-Trail interior: The X-Trail interior is a decent enough place to be in but the design is as aged as it’s exterior. The entry level models are cheapish to be to in and the mid range better and the top range is OK but only in isolation. In comparison the new Sportage is surprisingly not that much of an upgrade in quality except in styling. All model grades look fresh and top rangers not too bad although not quite fitting the price tag.<\/p>\n

Kia Sportage vs Nissan X-Trail engines and technology: The most disappointing part of the all new Kia Sportage is the carry over engines and transmissions and the price rise. Safety features are dependent on model grade for either models and makes the X-Trail \u00a0 less value for money considering it is a run out model.<\/p>\n

Kia Sportage vs Nissan X-Trail drive : N\/A<\/p>\n

The conclusion to the Kia Sportage vs Nissan X-Trail is the Sportage. The Sportage is more expensive but it looks and feels the newer model. The X-Trail in it’s current guise is not the best model to buy regardless, due to faulty transmission baggage and miscellaneous reliability issues. Note: that it doesn’t mean the Sportage is a winner by default.<\/p>\n
