The ST loses the manual for the new-generation X-Trail, not that many people would have bought the manual anyway.
But pricing of $36,750 before on-road costs is up $4000 over the old ST auto. Thankfully it gains a lot of standard gear at the entry point of the X-Trail range.
There is also an all-wheel drive version that adds an extra row of seats and that ups the price by $3040 to $39,790.
Standard equipment in the base ST include LED head- and tail-lights, 17-inch alloy wheels, roof rails and an 8.0-inch multimedia touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
As with all non-hybrid X-Trails, it comes with the revised 135kW/244Nm four-cylinder petrol engine, paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
All X-Trails come with a five-star ANCAP rating and safety gear on the ST includes front auto emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, rear AEB with pedestrian detection and a cross traffic alert, lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control.
