A dash means the maker’s documents we have don’t give that number for that configuration, and a column with no number for any configuration of the year isn’t shown. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label, and “not published” that the maker doesn’t print it, or points elsewhere. “Up to” is a ceiling the maker prints over several configurations; a range is the maker’s own, printed across the grades of that configuration.

02 / What changed

New for 2010

The 2010 Xterra against the 2009, the previous model year we hold. Only what Nissan’s documents show: nothing here is inferred.

Dropped: 2 configurations (S 4x2 4.0L V6 6MT and S 4x4 4.0L V6 6MT).
Same range as the 2009: towing and length.

The 2010 documents

2 documents behind the 2010 Xterra’s figures. The maker’s own come first; a third-party page fills in only a number the maker doesn’t publish, and wears its own mark.

Documents last checked Oct 9, 2026. How we read them and what the marks mean: how we source the numbers. A figure doesn’t match its document? Report a wrong number.
