Nissan Qashqai: A Stable Ride

At the heart of the Nissan Qashqai is a 2.0 L 4-cylinder engine that develops 141 horsepower and 147 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a CVT transmission designed to optimize fuel consumption while reproducing smooth gear changes.

All-wheel drive is optional on S and SV models and standard on SL models. With this four-wheel drive system, get the self-assurance you need while driving on icy or snowy roads in winter! Technologies like Hill Start Assist and Active Lane Control also contribute to your driving confidence.

The Qashqai is also known for its stable, agile drive and is compact and ideal for getting around town. Looking for a little more fun behind the wheel? Try the Sport mode, which changes the steering settings for increased responsiveness.

Qashqai: Exemplary Fuel Economy

If you need the qualities of an SUV, but want to reduce your fuel consumption, the Qashqai is undeniably a good choice. When equipped with front-wheel drive, it only consumes 8.6 L/100 km in the city and 7.3 L/100 km on the highway for a combined average of 8 L/100 km.

With all-wheel drive, this combined consumption barely increases, reaching an average of only 8.3 L/100 km. Moreover, you can activate the Eco mode for reduced fuel consumption. Whether you’re looking to extend your ride or simply reduce your environmental footprint, the gas-powered SUV is a good option in its class.

Nissan Qashqai: A Generous Interior

According to AJAC member Lee Bailie,
“Inside, the Qashqai is comfortable, spacious and well-equipped.”

In figures, we are talking about a trunk capacity of 648 L and a maximum cargo space of 1,730 L with the seats down. Of course, a large interior means a space where all passengers are comfortable; this is one of the strengths of the Nissan Qashqai.

Wondering which Qashqai model to choose? Of course, it depends on your needs and your budget. If above all you are looking to save money, the base S model is a suitable alternative. It is generously equipped with standard features such as heated front seats, a 7-inch touch screen and more.
