These where former arch rivals in the compact-medium sized SUV class however with the standard size creep for real all new models the Nissan X-Trail has grown in size and price. As a result it now competes in the category above the Mazda CX-5. So how do they compare?<\/p>\n<p>Nissan X-Trail Vs Mazda CX-5 exterior comparison: The X-Trail is clearly a derivative of the Qashqai or vice versa so it looks good but generic. The CX-5 still looks good for its age but its lines do look a little common due to popularity. In terms of size the CX-5 is not too big and not too small in parking lots and in terms of road presence, one of the reasons why it&#8217;s popular. The X-Trail is much larger these days that also appeals but we think to less people once they realise it is cumbersome to drive.<\/p>\n<p>Nissan X-Trail Vs Mazda CX-5 interior comparison: The X-Trail looks and feels good! Sure the design is generic but it works really well. In comparison the CX-5 has an equally nice interior and feels a little more upmarket thanks to the traditional instrument panel. Until they invent genuine 3d screens computer generated dials look flashy but there is something missing. Note that both models require the high end model grades to really impress and in that regard the CX-5 has the edge on the X-Trail for feeling upmarket.<\/p>\n<p>Nissan X-Trail Vs Mazda CX-5 engine and technology comparison: There is very little doubt that Mazda is the leading company for ICE &#8211; internal combustion engines. Despite so many pollution requirements they have managed to produce powerful and mostly non turbo engines that are fuel efficient. Our experience shows that 5 non turbo CX-5 is 3 litres less than the equivalent VW Tiguan turbo in the real world despite what the claimed figures say. We expect the same with the Nissan engines.<\/p>\n<p>The conclusion and winner of the Nissan X-Trail Vs Mazda CX-5 comparison is a draw. For the price in 2023 the CX-5 is the better and cheaper option for many model grades. The selling point of the CX-5 is the driving experience. It is more connected and adjustable handler than most competitors &#8211; this factor is the selling point. However the X-Trail has the hybrid engine option which makes it a winner in it&#8217;s own right. So it ultimately depends on what your priorities are when choosing either SUV.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<table style=\"width: 700px;\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><b>Nissan X-Trail<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><b>Mazda CX-5<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12057\" src=\"http:\/\/dixonarchive.com\/motorblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/22_xtrail_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"170\" \/><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7649\" src=\"http:\/\/dixonarchive.com\/motorblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018_cx5_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"170\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><strong>Engines<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">4 Cylinder Petrol (95 Octane)<br \/>\nDOHC EFI<br \/>\n2.5 Litre (2488cc)<br \/>\nClaimed 135Kw @ 6000RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 244Nm @ 3600RPM<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">IL4 Cylinder Petrol<br \/>\nDOHC EFI VVT<br \/>\n2.0 Litre (1996cc)<br \/>\nClaimed 114Kw @ 6000RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 200Nm @ 4000RPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">3 Cylinder Petrol Hybrid (95 Octane)<br \/>\nDOHC EFI Turbo<br \/>\nLitre (1497cc)<br \/>\nElectric motor 150Kw<br \/>\nElectric motor 330 Nm<br \/>\nCombined 157 Kw<br \/>\nClaimed 106Kw @ 4400RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 250Nm @ 2400RPM<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">IL4 Cylinder Petrol<br \/>\n2.5 Litre (2488cc)<br \/>\nDOHC Engine EFI<br \/>\nClaimed 138Kw @ 5700RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 250Nm @ 4000RPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">IL 4 Cylinder Twin Turbo Diesel<br \/>\nDI CR EFI<br \/>\n2.2 Litre (2191cc)<br \/>\nClaimed 129Kw @ 4500RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 420Nm @ 2000RPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">IL4 Cylinder Turbo Petrol<br \/>\n2.5 Litre (2488cc)<br \/>\nDOHC VVT EFI IC<br \/>\nClaimed 170Kw @ 5000RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 420Nm @ 2000RPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><strong>Weight<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">Kerb weight FROM 1536Kg<br \/>\nTowing capacity up to 1500Kg<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">FROM 1511 Kg<br \/>\nTowing capacity up to 1800kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><strong>Fuel capacity &amp;
