This is the model year two, though i don't agree with the better looks of the infotainment screen (apart from it's functionality). I personally am glad i have the "old" big enough screen still as it looks better proportioned to me, especially when it comes to the 360 roundview camera. I prefer having both screens equally sized instead of a (in my opinion) uselessly big distracting rearview screen with a relatively tiny roundview screen displayed beside it. I agree with the rearbumper insert now looking better though.

@@blippie Like all things it’s what you’re used to I would think. I think there is also another downside to the larger screen. Doesn’t have the same physical short cut buttons, or the second scroll wheel. So no doubt the screen will get covered in sticky fingerprints and will need to be cleaned regularly.

Yes I have noticed that from other reviews. However the eco-driver managed 50 mpg on a mixed cycle of town, mountains and motorways. He was driving the 158 ps Tekna I think, with the CVT box. I think it can be thirsty if you really gun it a lot and keep it in sport mode. Also I’ve seen another reviewer do 0 to 100 KM in 8.9 seconds using the flappy paddles to change gear. So it is not a slouch.

@@Steve-Cross He's a professional eco driver, his results are pretty much the lowest you could get and 5,6l/100km while eco driving on a country roads is still a pretty bad result. Once you go ont he highway or stay in the city Qashqai uses 1-2l/100km more than the competition. It's better with the manual but I wouldn't call it economical.

@@sic22l I will be able to find out for myself, when I pick my Tekna+ up on Tuesday. I will be happy with 40 mpg for a car of this size. I hired a Tucson last month and only got 34 mpg. Kind regards.

I also dont understand this...why can VAG engineer an ACT engine that consumes ~5-6l at an constant speed of 130kph but others eat fuel like a 250-300hp car despite actually having worse acceleration that VAG's engine. When it comes to reliability the EA211evo is also a very shiny example so why buy this thing?

mazda has the worse engines with no turbo. they're lazy. even my 1.0 125mhev ford focus it's faster than the Mazda skyactiv g/x

its not faster then 2.0 125hp !! that engine have better acceleration,speed and consumptiobn then small Ford engine and for reliability that is Light years better then Ford @@MrRobi10

@@Mr11ESSE111 I have a 1.0 100hp on the focus and it was really good..about this 1.3 on the nissan, idk what to say..

1,3 is good on nissan but better on previous generation which have better acceleration,performance and lower consumption while in this new one its sluggish a bit @@MrRobi10
