Fuel economy is from Japan’s official tests and is usually better than you’ll see on UK roads. MLIT doesn’t list power or torque.

Each row is one version as MLIT lists it. A version can appear twice when MLIT gave figures on two tests that year. Low-emission stars and trim names aren’t shown. MLIT gives fuel economy in km/L; the mpg figures are our conversion to UK gallons. Japanese tests are gentler than real UK driving, so expect less.

Check an NT30 before you buy

Make sure the car is what the advert says: the chassis number on the V5C should start NT30-, and the engine and gearbox should match one of the versions above. Our free check reads the UK MOT history and compares it with the chassis code.

What engine does the NT30 have?

MLIT lists the Nissan X-Trail / Bluebird Sylphy NT30 with QR20 1,998 cc petrol.

What fuel economy does the NT30 get?

Officially between 13 and 13.2 km/L (about 37–37 mpg), depending on the version, on Japan’s own tests. Real-world figures are usually lower, especially against the older 10-15 mode test.

How heavy is the NT30?

Between 1,380 and 1,460 kg kerb weight, depending on the version.

Is CBA-NT30 the same as NT30?

Yes. CBA-NT30 is the full model type: the letters before the hyphen are Japan’s emissions code, which changed as the rules were tightened, and NT30 is the model code. The chassis number starts with NT30-.

About these figures

The model types, engine codes, capacities, gearboxes, drive, weights, seats and km/L figures are copied from MLIT’s yearly lists of cars on sale in Japan each March, so “listed” years are list years, not exact production dates. The English model names, mpg conversions, emissions code explanations and chassis number matching are ours. Lists before 2013 were printed as PDFs that we read by machine; where an older list gives an engine code that doesn’t match its capacity, we’ve used the figure the same model type has in other years. Check anything that matters against the car’s own papers. Spotted a mistake? Email [email protected]. All Nissan model codes.
