Just ahead of its arch-rival the Honda CR-V, the X-Trail has slumped 10 places. You heap praise on its comfortable and practical cabin, but are less complimentary about the brakes and handling. An all-new model based on the same platform as Renault's forthcoming Koleos 4x4 is due this summer, and improving on dynamics will be a priority. Boosting build quality and reliability is also a must, with 41 per cent of owners complaining of a fault over the past three years. Hopes are high for the new car.

MANUFACTURER VERDICT

Down 3

More than any other car maker, Nissan has placed its faith in 4x4s. The firm's UK range now includes six all-wheel-drive models, as it claims thats what it's customers want. Unfortunately, your reviews have seen it drop three places in this chart. Disappointingly, the Nissan range can't get higher than 12th in any one category. But will the popularity of SUVs work in Nissan's favour? Only time will tell.
