www.redferret.net/?p=42263. The Nissan Qashqai 2014 'Next Generation' model is a brand new update on one of the most popular cars in Europe. This 'crossover' vehicle comes with a strong pedigree - including sales of 2 million around the globe - and we take a look to see if the new model lives up to the historical success.
The simple answer is, it does. The new car is roomy, fun to drive and offers an excellent combination of family versatility and driver appeal that made the first generation so popular. Throw in some high end options like automatic parking, and collision avoidance, and it's almost certain to be a winning combination.

Had mine for two years, 2 litre NZ and Australian model, incredible car, quiet, comfortable spacious, not a single problem in 26000kms apart from some Pratt putting a ding in the passengers door. Great car and great economy.

Have just purchased a lovely 2019 Connecta. Accordingly, knee deep in you tube videos. In all of them I've yet to see a reviewer have the confidence to actually use the parking assist to perform a parallel park with a car relatively close behind as well as a car in front. Seems we don't trust the tech totally and still prefer to rely on our own skills. And don't forget even the tech gets you in the tight spot it's still not clever enough to get you out! In the few short weeks I've owned on real negatives yet and the level of spec is great value. The only thing I would mention is what a lot of you tube reviewers have mentioned. The gear throw is a little on the long side and whilst many may just get used to it may put off some depending on what car you've come from. I would also assert that that if you are looking to carry 4 people regularly you should ignore the 1.2 petrol engines and just go for the 1.3 . The 1.2 was just way to sluggish at junctions or when you might need a bit of pep. The glass roof on mine is glorious and kids love it!

You are not safe for the road if you can't park your own car without aids.

@redferret 10 жыл бұрын

Quna Maxamus You could say the same about turn indicators. :)

@qunamaxamus2425 10 жыл бұрын

Turn indicators let OTHERS know where you are about to go so they don't cause a crash out of your unexpected change of direction. Parking assistant does a simple driving maneuver instead of you and degrades connection with your car which in turn will lower your ability to maneuver in a more serious driving situations.

@redferret 10 жыл бұрын

Quna Maxamus '...degrades connection with your car...' I think that's reaching a bit to be honest. You could say that power steering degrades your connection with the car, or hill start assist, or any number of the newer driver aids which are coming on to the market, but the bottom line is you still need to drive your car, pass a test and know what you're doing.

I have 2015 1.5 dci tekna. Does anyone on here have a problem with movement in the gearstick after changing gear, ie, if you change from 4th to 5th for eg and accelerate and decelerate, does the gear stick move back and forth, as if engine mountings are loose or some linkages are loose? Mine does, I have had many cars and never experienced this. My Nissan dealer took it out and said its normal, I argued otherwise. Next week I am testing a similar car to see if its the same. Nissan are not happy with me. I am in Spain and their attitude is somewhat different to the UK., thanks.

@monk3yboy69 9 жыл бұрын

Marshall Worsnop My Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi does exactly the same. I have had Nissans before. I had a X trail a few years back. Did the same thing and I had a Nissan Sentra GXE way back in 1992 and that did the same. I never even give it much thought until I read your post So nothing to worry about to be honest.

I'm a n00b with cars, what would the 74 mpg & car's capacity allow it to manage on one tank, and how much would that tank cost at current diesel prices? thnx.

@redferret 10 жыл бұрын

Well, apparently it's got a 12 gallon tank, so if you say average of around 65 miles per gallon then it should do 780 miles to a tank. Cost depends on where you buy of course, but around £70 a fill up. Hope that helps.

Ross Byrne Probably not. That range of (max 780 miles) would be motorway driving only. With a good mix of motorway miles and urban miles, you would be looking at 590 to 650 miles on a tank. That is what I am getting. I am heavy with my right foot......so that is perhaps why it looks bad in comparison

monk3yboy69 Its a Diesel, too. You'll always see lower BHP figures since they don't spin as fast as a gasoline. 130 for a 1.6 Diesel is excellent, as it would be for a 2.0L too.

@benanderson89 9 жыл бұрын

monk3yboy69 Horsepower is the amount of Torque an engine generates in 1 minute at a given engine speed. 1hp = 33,000lb/ft of Torque per minute. Diesels spin far slower than Gasoline engines due to them being compression ignition engines rather than Spark Ignition like a Gasoline, meaning less work per minute and a lower horsepower figure.

@redferret 10 жыл бұрын

da23ni82 You asked me to get my information right, and I was demonstrating that the information I provided was 'right' in official terms. With regard to reality, you will know as well as I do that it's impossible to review and test for every variation of load, topology, environment and circumstance, so we use the 'official' numbers to deliver a yardstick by which to compare against other vehicles. So yes, you're correct that these official figures may not reflect 'reality', but it's the best we can do to try and allow for any meaningful comparison. The fact is 74 mpg is an impressive benchmark to start with, when comparing against other official benchmarks, which is really all we can ask for.

like talking to the wind here, in my humble opinion, everybody can read the brochure but real information comes with real life testing, and that is what i meant, thank you

@da23ni82 10 жыл бұрын

if you go to the dealership they will say the same things you said, but we want somebody who actually tested it to tell us the real mpg when driven by regular people and not professional drivers
