Has It Still Got What It Takes? Nissan Qashqai 2018 Review

Love ‘em or hate ‘em, SUVs are big business in the new car market right now. These kind of cars are able to offer more space, a raised ride height, and the potential to do outdoorsy, lifestyle activities that you’ll aspire to, but probably never do. Last week I was joined by a car that helped to kick this whole trend off, the Nissan Qashqai. But, has it still got what it takes to be a class leader?
I tested it recently to see if I could answer that very question. The model on test here is the Pilot One Edition, which is a special model to celebrate the inclusion of Nissan's ProPilot system to the Qashqai. ProPilot is an semi-autonomous driving which uses adaptive cruise control along with lane keep assist.
Powering this car is a 1.6 litre diesel engine, which is mated to a CVT automatic gearbox with power fed to the front wheels. 118bhp is on offer, along with 320Nm of torque, meaning you'll hit 62mph in 11 seconds and continue to a top speed of 114mph.

I drive a Tekna diesel. The car is the easiest and most economical car I've ever had. Operating the heater and other controls on the move is very easy with the push buttons rather than having to take my eyes of the road to use a touchscreen.

Yeah i do agree with you. Compared to other reviews, some of them are just saying negative sides of the car instead of showing the good side. I just bought this car and after watching other's reviews , it makes me feel regretful of buying it just because of those negative sides. But Im glad to see this review, this guy focused on what the car has in a appropriate way. Im still happy with my car and so far, the performance is good . Thanks for sharing this video

I’m more than happy with the Qashqai ST-L 2000cc 2018.Ive had a lot cars in my time but this beats them for for older person as it drives will and ease to get in and out of. Recommend it to all ages but ideal for persons like me being 80 .... Cheers and top travelling..

I've decided to reace my old Qashqai with..... another Qashqai because its such a good car for me. Upgraded to Tekna Plus. I love the buttons, when you are driving buttons are souch better than touch screen. Also.....I like lots of buttons lol Oh! My brake Button broke after 2 years. But that is my only complaint. Fuel consumption is brilliant, its a doddle to drive on little country roads and goes like stink on the motorway. 10/10 for me.

Really enjoying our 1.2-litre DIG-T 115PS Connecta Auto, bought New in Nov 2017. Comfy and easy to drive. Feel OK even after a 4-5 hour drive across country. Great value and the material quality is fine, especially considering the New retail price under £24,000. (I agree that the car and trim as priced above is expensive) Actually preferred this car after test driving a number of competitors including the very accomplished Honda CRV, but that car was less involving and just a little "floaty". Great dealer too.

Loving the videos which car do you recommend for someone who’s having one baby and a dog. Everyone seems to have their own choices tends to be get a big boot due to the pram and kids stuff. Some say suv others say estate??? I was just thinking either the new Ford Focus or the Seat Ateca?? What do you think?

@CarObsession 5 жыл бұрын

It's a difficult one to answer, because it depends on budget, what sort of body shape you're looking for and also what else you want from the car. Focus and Ateca are good choices, I'd doubt you'd be able to go wrong with either. I'm glad you love the videos, it's great hear people enjoy what I do :)

@joe80ss 5 жыл бұрын

Car Obsession apparently with a baby on the way I should be concerned with Boot and rear space size. Was looking at 20 k mark but if decent pcp deal for under 250 a month would do. New Ford Focus is being raved about. I personally liked the Seat Ateca. Also for estates I was told Skoda superb...

@CarObsession 5 жыл бұрын

To be honest, I doubt you could go wrong any of those cars. I've driven the Superb though, but a family friend has one and they are happy with it. I'm trying to get an invite to the UK launch of the new Ford Focus, but it's proving a bit tricky. I'm confident I'll be able to test it before the year is through though.

Never buy a Nissan Qashqai timing chain issues and after that new engines are needed. Appalling air conditioning new condenser needed every two years. Parking sensors fill with water when it rains and it thinks your parking when you drive Nissans answer was to drill holes in the bumper to stop the water ingress. Watch out for the warning signs oil consumption that’s the start of your Nissan journey enjoy 😉 PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS CAR. Sorry Nissan but you need to honour the people who bought the faulty cars you produced with Renault building the engines and fitting the piston rings incorrectly. If at least one person reads this and it stops them buying one I am a happy man.

3008 is a very good car, I definitely enjoyed it when I tested one last year. I won't lie, I think the GT model is overpriced, but I would rather have a 3008 than a Qashqai.
