When it comes to the ever-growing SUV segment, two names that have captured attention are the Nissan X-Trail and the Dacia Bigster. Both vehicles come with modern features and attractive designs aimed at meeting the demands of today’s families and adventure seekers. This comparison will delve into the technical specifications and innovative features that each model brings to the table.
The Nissan X-Trail carries a robust SUV silhouette, measuring 4680 mm in length, 1840 mm in width, and standing 1720 mm tall. Its aggressive stance and contemporary design elements make it a popular choice among compact SUVs. In contrast, the Dacia Bigster has slightly more compact dimensions at 4570 mm in length, 1813 mm in width, and a height of 1705 mm. The understated character of its design emphasizes functionality and practicality.
Under the hood, the Nissan X-Trail offers a choice of petrol MHEV and full hybrid engines, producing power outputs ranging from 163 to 213 HP. The X-Trail also boasts an efficient fuel consumption rate, with variants consuming between 5.7 to 6.9 L/100km. The vehicle is available in both front-wheel and all-wheel drive configurations, catering to a variety of driving preferences.
On the other hand, the Dacia Bigster is equipped with petrol MHEV and full hybrid engines, along with a rare LPG option. Power outputs for the Bigster are slightly lower, ranging from 130 to 155 HP, with remarkable fuel efficiency reaching as low as 4.7 L/100km. Like the X-Trail, the Bigster offers both front-wheel and all-wheel drive options, providing flexibility based on driving conditions.
The Nissan X-Trail accelerates from 0-100 km/h in as little as 7 seconds, a notable performance feature and testament to its sporty handling. Its top speed reaches up to 200 km/h, appealing to those who desire an exhilarating driving experience. In comparison, the Dacia Bigster has an acceleration time of around 9.7 to 11.2 seconds, with a maximum speed of 180 km/h—still respectable but not as dynamic as the X-Trail.
Inside, the Nissan X-Trail offers a flexible seating arrangement for either 5 or 7 passengers, along with generous trunk space varying from 575 to 585 liters, making it an ideal family vehicle. The modern dashboard layout comes equipped with a suite of the latest technology, such as a digital instrument cluster and advanced infotainment system.
In contrast, the Dacia Bigster is more focused on simplicity and functionality, seating up to 5 passengers with a trunk capacity of up to 667 liters. Although it may lack some of the high-end tech found in the X-Trail, the interior is designed for durability and practicality, appealing to budget-conscious buyers.
Both vehicles are equipped with a range of safety and driver-assist features; however, the Nissan X-Trail has an edge with its extensive safety suite that includes advanced intelligent driving aids, lane-keeping assistance, and adaptive cruise control. The emphasis on safety is a critical selling point, especially for families.
The Dacia Bigster, while offering basic safety features, does not have the same level of technological sophistication but does include essential safety measures to ensure peace of mind on the road.
Ultimately, the choice between the Nissan X-Trail and the Dacia Bigster may come down to individual preferences and needs. The X-Trail excels in performance, interior technology, and safety features, making it a top pick for those willing to invest a little more for added luxury. Meanwhile, the Bigster appeals to value-seekers looking for functionality and efficiency without the frills. Both models reflect the versatility and capacity expected from modern SUVs, ensuring they will continue to compete strongly in the market.
