I was sorely tempted just before I bought my current QQ.
Unfortunately, it was around the time they were tinkering with the X-Trail specs and they had dropped the particular model I wanted.

I had hired a Rogue in Colorado in 2018 and really enjoyed it and from memory there was (unsurprisingly) certainly more room in the back seat and the boot.

No idea what the mpg was, nor what engine it had although it was an auto.

Funny that. I had the Rouge in Florida and loved it but the used price back here is high and they all seem high mileage so I’ve been looking at the Qashqai, however I have seen a good priced X-Trail.

I don't but the mod on the French QQ forum did. Upgrade... that's how you see it of course ;)
More space, yes! Some different options, as well. You also loose some though.
Especially on driving. As it is quite a bit heavier it doesn't feel as dynamic as the QQ it appears.
