>X-Trail e-Power AWD a while ago, and fuel economy, while not spectacular, was still great

10L/100km on highway, worse than cheaper comparably powerful ordinary diesel. Seems like a pointless car, X-Trail 2.0 dCi M9R was better in every possible way.

Where did you get the 10L/100km figure from? I saw closer to 7L/100km when driving it, and the 2.2 diesel on the older X-Trails has about 100 less horsepower.

7L mixed cycle, stay on highway and you get 10 because no recuperation and 250kg heavier.

Are you comparing (hybrid) gasoline figures to diesel on a liter per km basis? What about cost per km now that diesel prices have shot up?
