Our verdict

Their ex-showroom prices are close enough to ignore, so specification decides it: the Hyundai Santa Fe leads on dealer and service reach.

Choose the Hyundai Santa Fe if
  • you want servicing within reach of where you live
  • you want a dealer close enough to visit and negotiate at

Measured: 10 more service centres in Nepal (35 vs 25); 46 more showrooms in Nepal (81 vs 35).

Choose the Nissan X-Trail e-POWER if
  • you want the stronger powertrain for hill climbs and overtaking

Measured: 33 PS more power.

Every figure in this verdict is computed from the table below — the same ex-showroom prices, variant specifications and Nepal service network the page publishes. Nothing here is an estimate, and where a figure is missing on one side the axis is left out rather than guessed.
