Launch?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nissan announced at a dealer conference in the United States, confirming a 2028 production start. Alongside this, the company also revealed plans for a new Infiniti Q50 sedan. The Xterra update reflects Nissan\u2019s strategy to re-enter the competitive mid-size off-road SUV segment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-powertrain-could-the-third-gen-xterra-offer\"><strong>What Powertrain Could the Third-Gen Xterra Offer?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Reports suggest the new Xterra will be powered by a V6 hybrid system. There is speculation about a range-extender feature, allowing some all-electric driving. This aligns with rivals like Toyota\u2019s 4Runner hybrid and Jeep\u2019s Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-will-the-xterra-be-built\"><strong>Where Will the Xterra Be Built?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Production is planned at Nissan\u2019s Canton, Mississippi, facility, where the Frontier pickup is assembled. The next-generation Xterra is likely to share its platform with the Frontier, continuing its body-on-frame construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-current-xterra-in-the-uae\"><strong>The Current Xterra in the UAE<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/30200502\/nissan-x-terra-trim-variant-breakdown-analysis-3-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"nissan xterra comeback\" class=\"wp-image-77089\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/30200502\/nissan-x-terra-trim-variant-breakdown-analysis-3-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/30200502\/nissan-x-terra-trim-variant-breakdown-analysis-3-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/30200502\/nissan-x-terra-trim-variant-breakdown-analysis-3-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/30200502\/nissan-x-terra-trim-variant-breakdown-analysis-3-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/30200502\/nissan-x-terra-trim-variant-breakdown-analysis-3-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/30200502\/nissan-x-terra-trim-variant-breakdown-analysis-3.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The\u00a0 Nissan Xterra remains available in UAE showrooms. It is based on the Nissan Terra and comes with a 4.0-litre V6 petrol engine producing 261 hp and 381 Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed automatic gearbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-design-and-exterior\"><strong>Design and Exterior<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Designed with desert driving in mind, the current model features skid plates, rear differential lock, hill descent control, and selectable four-wheel drive modes. Its rugged nature keeps it relevant among off-road enthusiasts, despite its older design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-interior-and-features\"><strong>Interior and Features<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xterra\u2019s cabin offers seating for seven in higher trims, with foldable seats for extra cargo space.

Key factors will include pricing, hybrid system performance in desert conditions, and whether the new model retains the toughness of the current version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/uae\/used\/nissan\/xterra\">the best Xterra cars for sale in the UAE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/\">UAE\u2019s most popular auto blog<\/a> for more information about the latest happenings in all of the Emirates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-faqs\"><strong>FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1756264930803\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>When will the third-generation Nissan Xterra launch?<\/h3><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Nissan has confirmed the third-generation Xterra will arrive in 2028, with production expected to begin at the company\u2019s Canton, Mississippi, plant.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1756264951031\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Is the Nissan Xterra still sold in the UAE?<\/h3><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, the second-generation Xterra is still available in the UAE.
