The Nissan X-Trail has welcomed another important accolade, with the new model named the Best Medium-Sized SUV in the RAC’s Best Drives 2023.

It joins a growing list of awards for the Nissan X-Trail, which, since arriving as an all-new model, has been named Australia's Best Medium SUV at the Drive Car of The Year Awards, been recognised by the Women’s World Car of The Year 2023 judges, and received a 2023 Good Design Award, among a host of other local and international honours.

The Royal Automobile Club of Western Australia’s Best Drives judging recognises the best of the approximately 60 vehicles they road tested over 2023, with judges focusing on value, safety, design and function, fit for purpose, fuel economy within class, and ride and handling.

The motoring group highlighted the range-opening Nissan X-Trail ST for its winning combination of quality and value compared to its competition.
