The Nissan Qashqai has ground to make up on its Korean rivals - is this latest generation model up to the task? ComynPaddy drives it:
GOOD STUFFNo longer has the segment to itself and some rivals are now better.The Nissan Qashqai is the original of the species. When it was launched in 2007, there wasn’t really anything to match it as it made very little attempt to be a proper SUV, but aimed itself squarely at those people that wanted the look of an SUV, in a more car-like package.
It sits on an all-new platform called CMF-C and the wheelbase of the car has increased by 20mm with the overall length increasing by 35mm. There is a marginal increase in height and width has increased by 32mm. For the first time, buyers can choose 20” alloy wheels as an option too.There are big improvements here, with a much better level of interior quality and a more generous cabin too. The longer wheelbase gives more room for users.
Luggage capacity has increased by 74-litres from the previous generation model thanks in part to the cargo floor being lowered by 20mm.WHAT IS IT LIKE TO DRIVE?
