There used to be a time when off-roading in the United States was not equivalent to shelling out tens of thousands of dollars. Back when Nissan<\/a> had a significant share of the rugged off-road SUV market, car buyers had more affordable options for vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So when Nissan announced it is discontinuing the Xterra in the US market after the 2015 model year, which meant the brand would no longer have a body-on-frame SUV in its US lineup, it’s safe to say many were disappointed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But now that Nissan has returned to selling the Xterra in the Middle East for the 2021 model year, there have also been renewed calls for the off-roader to return to America. And with other popular models such as the Ford Bronco making a triumphant return, Nissan’s dealer network thinks it’s time for the SUV to make a comeback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to reports, Nissan dealers are projecting annual sales of 70,000 to 80,000, not to mention a boost on the brand’s image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“At a time many automakers might be combing through corporate archives for off-road vehicles from long ago, Nissan finds credibility almost right in front of it with the Xterra,” said Tyson Jominy, vice president of data and analytics at J.D. Power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jominy believes bringing the Xterra back could be a great opportunity for Nissan, which is still facing financial problems stemming from a couple of years back. However great the opportunity, though, the automaker made it clear that it won’t be ringing the China-spec Terra to the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Should Nissan decide to revive the Xterra<\/a>, it will face tough rivals from Ford, Jeep, and Toyota. But then again, an affordable off-road SUV is always welcome in the US automobile market.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
