The Nissan Qashqai has been one of the Japanese carmaker's most popular models over the years. Does this new model live up to that reputation? John Law explores. FULL STORY: www.whichcar.com.au/reviews/2023-nissan-qashqai-review-first-australian-drive-video

Can I ask why you don’t drive the vehicles at night. It would be interesting to see the vision is at night

The comfort looks so good I could easily forget that my kids are even in the car while I go to the shops. Edit: don't worry I always lock the doors so no one can get to them!

Great looking suv but the cvt worries me I think the kia seltos gt line with the 1.6 Lt with torque converter auto is the way to go you also get ventilated seats with the kia

I agree with all the three points; -looks -worrisome transmission -seltos as an alternative (a better one not only on transmission but also the looks too I think)

I have the top of the range Qashqai. The CVT gearbox is amazing and matched perfectly with the engine. It is almost like driving an electric vehicle as you don’t feel the gear changes. Making the power transfer very smooth. It does have artificial steps, which you can utilise with the paddle shifts, if you wish. I have driven many cars, both Auto and Manuel over the years. I must say the new Qashqai is by far the best car I have driven so far. The point I am making is don’t be put off by the CVT. It works brilliantly.

The e-power is fascinating. I ‘think’ it’s a bad idea but IDK

E Power gets rid of CVT for an electric drive train, also no space saver spare. Engine revs matched electronically to speed as a generator under hard acceleration. Active noise cancellation for an even quieter interior.. Extra 200 Kg for battery and electric drive train means the ride is a little more planted. Should be best hybrid to drive but inferior economy to conventional Hybrids with motor driving wheels and CVT.. like Toyotas. Best economy is new 2023 Prius which is now sexy! We were promised delivery in early 2023... But no firm date yet. QASHQAIs are the top selling car in the UK in 2022 where they are designed and made... Hence the delays for Australian arrivals.

Looks good, better interior than the Corolla Cross by the look (size and quality of materials). But, at above $50k, they are both getting close to Mazda CX5, Tucson, Sportage price range which seem more car for the money. At $45k or less, it would be an obvious choice.

Agreed, you could even go for a BYD Atto 3 and have a full EV for less than this car costs.

Sorry, but for this price I would expect it to have ventilated front seats. I'd happily take them instead of the heated seats unnecessary in our climate.

We live in snow country and I love these seats, in fact I love the whole car. We have been lucky over the years we have always had vehicles that were great and not given us any bother. - 1992 Suzuki Vitara x 4 dr, 2005 Toyota Kluger Grande, 2014 Jeep Grnd Cherokee diesel and now our Qashqai Ti. I can say the seats are as good as our 2nd car a 2010 Mercedes B200T.

The only way I would consider this if Nissan offered a 10y warranty on the CVT.Lets face it its the elephant the room Nissan and there famous crapco CVT failure conveniently post warranty
@hartoz Жыл бұрын
The CVT transmission is, and always has been the downfall of the Nissan range. It's incredibly unreliable and is usually the first thing to fail out of warrantee. I fail to understand why Nissan/Mitsubishi still use this awful transmission. A plain old torque-converter box would be a step up in this car. The build quality and style of the new Qashqai is way better than the old model (which I though looked ugly and badly proportioned), however if given the choice between this car and a top spec Haval Jolion, I would choose the Haval.
