About Nissan Xterra

The Xterra’s V6 engine provides plenty of power for highway passing, off-roading, and towing. Rear-wheel drive is standard, as is a five-speed automatic transmission. There are four-wheel drive and a six-speed manual transmission options. The fuel efficiency is comparable to other off-road SUVs, but it is bad for the small SUV class as a whole. Expect to get 15-16 mpg in town and 20-22 mpg on the highway.

The Xterra has a harsh ride, slow-responding steering, and some body lean. However, unlike its crossover competitors, the Xterra’s body-on-frame structure makes it a better off-roader. The off-road equipment of the Pro-4X grade makes the Xterra even more trail-ready. With a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds, the Xterra is a useful carrier on the road.

The interior of the five-seat Xterra is filled with harsh plastics, yet being functional. Some people may struggle to establish their ideal driving posture due to the low seating position and nontelescoping steering wheel. Cloth upholstery is standard, with leather upholstery and heated front seats available as options. Although there is ample of head- and legroom, the chairs do not provide adequate support for extended journeys. The rear outboard seats include two complete sets of LATCH car-seat attachments while the middle seat has a tether-only connection. When it comes to storage, the Xterra excels, with plenty of small-item niches inside the cockpit and 66 cubic feet of load space with the rear seats folded.

Bluetooth, an auxiliary port, and an under-floor storage bin are standard features on the Xterra. The stereo and climate settings are straightforward and simple to use. The NissanConnect infotainment system, available on select grades, offers satellite radio, a USB port, hands-free text messaging, and smartphone app compatibility.

The 2015 Nissan Xterra has a J.D. Power & Associates projected dependability rating of 3.5 out of five, which is above average for a compact SUV.

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave the 2015 Xterra middling ratings in crash tests. It received a Good rating in the side impact and moderate overlap front crash tests, as well as an Acceptable rating in the roof strength test. However, it obtained a Marginal score in the rear crash testing.

The Xterra, like many of its off-road competitors, lacks advanced safety features. Standard features include stability control and a rearview camera on Pro-4X models.

The Xterra’s second and final generation spans the model years 2005 to 2015. Because the Xterra’s features haven’t changed much over the years, you might want to investigate a model that’s a few years older and has similar features at a lesser price.
