I adore my Nissan X-Terra for weekend desert adventures. It handles bad roads and rough terrain with ease. The ride is smooth even on rough roads, and there is more than enough space for camping equipment and family. The interior is plain but practical, and the vehicle is solid and secure. It may not be high-end, but it is great if you need a dependable off-roader for UAE travels. The X-Terra makes me feel safe when navigating tough trails, and it's been a reliable partner on many outings.

This giant SUV gets the proven 2.5L engine that produces 160hp of power at a peak torque of 241 Nm and mated to an automotive transmission. These specs make the Xterra a reasonably okay SUV at a price point of under AED 150,000. I found the cabin quite spacious, even though all the seven passengers are inside, and it is quite modern and also comfortable. However, I let it pass from my list of probable options because Xterra is way behind when it comes to the latest features and advanced technologies that are standard on all its competitive brands.

The Nissan Xterra has a powerful engine with optimum torque for highway merging and off-road adventures. However, it leaves something to be desired with its on-road handling. Its body-on-frame design is sturdy and its long-travel suspension enhances its off-road capability, resulting in an uncomfortable ride than traditional crossover SUVs. Also, it feels sluggish while handling tight turns, and the steering is a bit slow. Its safety features and infotainment system are also outdated than its competitors. Its performance trails behind most of the modern SUVs.

I always wanted a car with an exceptional design, and I found that in Nissan X-TERRA. Its 2.5 engine producing up to 165 hp power and 241 Nm torque, offers excellent performance and is very reliable. Since it is equipped with advanced technology, it is a perfect choice for those who prefer to go out with their family now and then. It has a brake-limited slip differential that allows me to power up the car whenever I drive it on a dune or a stiff road. Also, it has parking sensors and assistance to help me park the car with so much ease, which is another reason why I like the car.

I was looking for an all-purpose vehicle for daily commutes, extended road trips, and mild offroading, and after detailed research, I opted for the Nissan Xterra. I was fed up with the fact that modern crossovers and SUVs lack off-road capability and feel too car-like, but the Xterra doesn't disappoint me. I love the way it handles and performs. The interior feels basic, with minimal technology, thick cloth upholstery, hard plastics, and simplistic climate controls. It is also very affordable, making it a must-buy.
