Car Review (All Years)
Reviews and ratings on the Nissan Xterra. These reviews are written by the owners themselves. All years for this make and model are included here. Edmunds (2003)
Poor on-road ride and steering, four-cylinder and normally aspirated V6 lack power.
New Car Test Drive (2003)
The naturally aspirated (non-supercharged) V6 is stronger this year. Stronger is cooler. Electronic brake distribution (EBD) is now standard. Traction control, skid control, and a tire-pressure monitoring system are now available. Canadian Driver (2002)
New supercharged V6 engine, new styling and revised interior are highlights of the 2002 Xterra . Car Buying Strategies (2002)
Here's a 2002 Nissan Xterra review and price & buying guide. Detroit News (2002)
Truckish Xterra has power to please. Edmunds (2002)
The '02 Xterra's driving dynamics are familiar to anyone who has driven older versions. That is to say the steering feels a bit lazy and the suspension is on the soft side. Epinions (2002)
See what fellow owners of the 2002 Nissan Xterra think of their vehicles -- the good and the bad. National Highway Traffic Safety Admin (2002)
Crash test results for the 2002 Nissan Xterra 4-DR. 4x4 model. New Car Test Drive (2002)
Supercharged performance and interior refinements add appeal. The Car Connection (2002)
The 2002 Nissan Frontier and Xterra are creating a power play by Nissan’s youth movement. Truck World (2002)
Even in 4WD form, the Xterra feels tight and handles likewise. Its aggressive silhouette belies the surefooted handling of this compact class SUV, even with the slightly taller 17" wheel and tire package. USA Today (2002)
Ride and handling are agreeable. You're aware Xterra's a truck, not a car-based whatsis. But that's not objectionable. The ride is firm but not harsh. Normal bumps are soaked up nicely, with little bounce. Yahoo Autos (2002)
The 2002 Xterra is a 4-door, 5-passenger sport-utility, available in 9 trims. Its closest competitors include the Buick Rendezvous, the Isuzu Trooper, and the Toyota RAV4. Autonet Direction (2001)
The Xterra sport ute is spacious and the higher rear seat allows great visibility for all occupants. Car Buying Strategies (2001)
At the top end of the Nissan sport utility line up is the Xterra SE 4WD, with the added power and control of four-wheel on-demand drive and 170 horsepower. Cars Everything (2001)

Crash test results on the 2001 Nissan Xterra 4-DR. 4x4 model. New Car Test Drive (2001)
A new instrument panel is the most significant change in 2001. It is stylish, but ironically it's less functional than the old panel. And its style is a matter of individual taste. American Woman Road & Travel (2000)
It’s bigger than the RAV4 and CR-V and provides a bigger engine to offer more fun on- and off-road. Auto Revista (2000)
The Xterra is not a rich man's toy. It is designed for young, "edgy", great outdoors adventure-seekers. Automobile Reviews (2000)
Consumers think that the Xterra offers a lot more than some of the smaller SUVs on the market; while they don't have to spend as much for those top of the line "monster" SUVs which are accompanied with a pretty hefty price tag. AutoWire (2000)
Nissan wants Xterra buyers to see the new SUV as a toolbox for their gear. It certainly feels like something from a North Face catalogue - rugged design, high quality fittings, eminently practical and reliable
