Nissan Motor India has started deliveries of its flagship SUV in the Indian market, the X-Trail. The SUV was launched in the Indian market recently and it comes through the CBU route because of which it is priced on the more expensive side. It is being offered in just one variant which costs ₹49.92 lakh ex-showroom.

Commenting on the opening of the new touchpoints, Mr. Saurabh Vatsa, Managing Director, Nissan Motor India Pvt. Ltd.

In line with our commitment to enhancing customer experiences, we have expanded our network in this vibrant city. The new Jubilant Nissan touchpoints will further strengthen our presence in Karnataka and meet the growing demand for Nissan domestic and CBU products. We are on track to touch 300 touchpoints by the end of this fiscal and the delivery of the first 4th Generation X-TRAIL to a former X-TRAIL owner and Nissan afficionado is testament to our CBU business plans in India."
