Is This A Canadian Or A Japanese Car?

Hey guys, it’s me again, Gatlin from Carphonix, your one stop shop for all things custom car electronics.

If you’re a Canadian like me, you might recognize the car in this video as a Nissan X-Trail. Ditto if you’re from Japan. Why? That’s the only two countries where this particular vehicle is available.

Yep, Americans, Europeans, Mexicans, whoever, you’re missing out. Did you realize your whip was so unique in the world?

Anyway, Craig brought this bad boy over to dig into it.

There are some differences between the Canadian and Japanese models, of course. For example, you might notice this is a right-side drive. So, clearly not Canadian. As well, the Canadian version has dials for the climate control and 4×4, whereas this one is all digital.

It’s got some pretty cool features as well, including a built in can cooler. That’s right, if you want to keep your drinks cool while you’re on the road, this little fellah will do it for ya! It’s tied into the air conditioner.

Craig and I are going to take you on a tour of this guy. We’ll take a look under the hood, the interior, the body, and check out some of the differences. As always, if you’re interested in bringing in a JDM ride, check out Craig’s business Bonsai Rides.

But hey, enough of this. Check out the video below.
