The best way to get somewhere in the snow is with tracks. This is why Nissan has fitted a set of four tracks to the X-Trail to create a mountain rescue machine. It’s ready to retrieve downed skiers, with room for a stretcher and a seat for a medic.
The Mountain Rescue starts with a Nissan X-Trail. The X-Trail is the same crossover we’d call the Nissan Rogue on this side of the pond.

e-4ORCE AWD
The European X-Trail offers one thing the Rogue doesn’t: e-4ORCE.
That’s the hard-to-say and harder-to-spell name Nissan uses for its AWD system when the power comes from electric motors instead of a gas engine. The X-Trail e-4ORCE comes with a hybrid driveline called e-Power, which is essentially the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV‘s system without the big battery (the two vehicles are closely related under the skin).
Unlike a PHEV, it doesn’t plug into a wall. Instead, a 1.5L three-cylinder recharges the smaller battery and powers the motors. The electric motors drive the wheels — in this case, the tracks — in nearly every situation.
