The Xtreme Alternative
The new 2012 Nissan Xterra is for those adventurous types that like to keep going even when the paved road ends. With some serious horsepower, awesome off-road capabilities, a fully boxed full-length frame for strength and, of course, its iconic roof rack, Xterra can more than handle any adventure you want to embark on.
Durability Meets Capability
The Nissan Xterra packs a powerful 4.0-liter DOHC 24-valve V6 that can get you uphill in a hurry. And if you decide to stop on that hill, the available Hill Start Assist prevents you from rolling backwards. Likewise, the available Hill Descent Control helps control your brake pressure and speed so you can concentrate more on navigating those steep, narrow trails. And all of this comes on a fully boxed full-length steel frame. What's more, you get the iconic Nissan Xterra roof rack for all new cargo-carrying possibilities. The available gear box is great for your muddy, wet, or snowy gear that you would rather not have in the cabin and is removable when you want to carry larger items. And for those times when you already burned all your daylight and need some extra illumination, the roof-rack-mounted off-road lights help you see the trail even in the darkest conditions.
Interior Versatility
The 2012 Nissan Xterra offers so many options when it comes to interior cargo space and features. With a fold-flat front seat you'll be able to pack those skis, snowboards, or longboards and still have room for your friend to come along, too. And the available Utili-track channel system offers a simple solution to tying down and securing your gear. The Utili-track cleats are fully adjustable so you can customize your tie-down configuration how you want. The under-floor storage provides another great place to store dirty or messy gear. And when you get back to camp, the Easy Clean cargo area can be easily wiped down so it's ready for the next day's mess.
Stay Connected
With available Bluetooth hands-free connectivity, you'll be able to stay in touch and stay safe no matter what adventure you're on. The Xterra also offers an available Rockford Fosgate audio system with an in-dash 6-CD changer, 9 speakers, and enclosed subwoofer. Add in an available MP3 auxiliary input and you can connect your iPod for hours of music to fuel your extreme adventure.
So if you're looking for an "xtreme" vehicle that will get you where you want to go and more, then don't look further than the 2012 Nissan Xterra. Even if you're considering the Toyota RAV4, Forerunner, or Honda CR-V, you need to test drive the Nissan Xterra. Once you compare Xterra to the competition, you'll be glad you did.
