The Nissan Qashqai is the total package! It’s a practical family car, with the style and space of a SUV but with the running costs of a hatchback. As well as there being room for a family of 5 the car has a 5-Star Euro NCAP safety rating to match, it isn’t difficult to see why the Qashqai is currently the forth best-selling car in the UK, and has been named What Car's "Small SUV of the Year" in 2016.

The Qashqai is available in sleek leather or part-leather interior and is extremely well equipped inside and out even on the entry-level model. Its barely audible 1.5 diesel engine and ability to absorb bumps and potholes mean the drive is smooth and quiet. You’ll even experience that new car feel as our cars are 100-point checked and cosmetically prepared before they enter our forecourt. The exterior of the Qashqai has recently undergone a fresh facelift, giving it a sophisticated exterior design.

A smooth drive

With its SUV body, the Qashqai rewards its driver with comfort, economy and practicality. It has confident handling and easy driving, with clear visiblity from all angles like its hatchback minor. There has been no compromise in relation to space ensuring all passengers have sufficient leg space, whilst having a boot large enough for all the family’s luggage. All models currently stocked have a panoramic glass roof allowing all passengers to benefit from a light and spacious interior. On the more technical side, its wheels and controlled body power mean it handles any sharp corners easily, making it a pleasure to drive.

 

Choosing the right Qashqai

There is a variation of Models and trim levels, so there should be a Qashqai that perfectly suits you. You have the choice of a 1.5L or 1.6L engine performing efficiently on both the school run and motorway driving. We’ve found the most popular model is the 1.5DCi N-Connecta, as our customers found they enjoyed the comfort of the drive.

Both boast a multitude of features to enhance your family’s journey, the Tekna may have lower MPG, but it makes up for that with its extras like its ability to self-park and cosy heated seats.

As well as other extra features including;

  • A Bose sound system for added in car entertainment,

  • For extra reassuring safety, you can include parking cameras, privacy glass and a fatigue protection system just to name a few.

  • An optional extra is parking cameras – making it easier to park a slightly larger vehicle.

These extra features can make all the difference for your in-car experience, maximising the safety and comfort for you and your family.

There is currently FREE Road tax on the N-Connecta 1.5DCI diesel models registered before April 2017, so you’ll now escape the flat £140 road tax cost and can take advantage of the old CO2-based system, so you can have a promising fuel economy between 57mpg - 74mpg. If you're looking for an efficient, family friendly car then then the Qashqai is for you. Whichever one you choose; you'll get fuel economy that holds its own against other cars.
