Best selling SUV just got better? 2024 Nissan Qashqai review 4K UK

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ก.ย. 2024
- Although classed as a new generation; the platform, size and practicality remain the same for the Nissan Qashqai. Changes include a new design, interior and updated tech.... Is that enough for the Qashqai to hold onto its title of the best selling C-segment car?

I still have an older model and would consider updating to this latest version. Thank god they’ve kept the physical dashboard controls. The updates have keep the Qashqui looking modern and appealing. The blue colour looks fabulous in the sunshine. I just need to buy a lottery ticket and win enough to buy the top spec model with the “grandpa” leather !!! Great review Tish.
Really thorough real-world review. You just got yourself a new subscriber! 🎉
I'm wary of the Qashqui. My sister owned a new one a couple of years ago. Lots went wrong with it. Same thing with friends. Theirs had similar problems.
its the 1.5 thats worth a look , heres the thing, i keep a car for 4 to 6 years , but the warranty on the e power fandango batteries only a 3 yr warranty , so i walked (doesnt matter the old or tweaked one ) , shame nissan didnt consider a 5 or 6 yr warranty on their e battery set up.
The best thing could happen to hybrid cars is e-Power, IMO. I also love the physical buttons and the fair enough interior quality for the price. After e-Power I can never imagine to buy a regular hybrid car, but e-Power or full electric ones only. I've been on a driving camp (driving training for special, unexpected situations), and all I can say, Qashqai's safety system and the "driving feel" during difficult situations were extremely calming and just right. In everyday life though, the safety system is a bit too paranoid, it gives me heart stopping occasionally with false alarms, so that needs some calibrations IMO. All these experiences with a J12 Tekna. Oh, I almost forgot: the HUD is the best thing if safety is important for you, it showed its real value during the driving camp: I could stare at speed and the road the same time without constantly looking down. Helped a lot, I loved it.
It's a hybrid car, with an ICE, Electric Motor & a Bty. How you hook it up doesn't matter. The Austral & others means you run on bty or the ICE depending on it's criteria. It's a complicating meshing system that may play up. Does it drive on Electric all the time? Qashqai does, the engine charges bty only & you have the best of both worlds.
@@seltaeb3302 the new electric part of car or epower title is only warrantied 3 years , so if your buying outright , part loaning Dosh it isn't a decent warranty.
If yer leasing it's a case of just for 3 years then.
Great review as always Tish. For me personally the Google system would put me off. I had nothing but issues with it in a xc40. I actually ended up changing it for a sportage hev which has been phenomenal. The system in that is great too, especially maps
Android Automotive is just like Android phones in the way that the actual hardware running it and what the manufacturer has added to it can make your experience completely different. I wouldn’t compare them tbh as it’s likely bad Volvo software rather than anything wrong with Android Automotive itself
All reviews I've seen love the screen display, as long as the sat Nav works (no one has said it hasn't) & the radio plus mileage usage figures also.
I do really like the look of the new Qashqai, even in the lower specs, but I'm not sure why! Its very unassuming. That said, I'd be loathed to choose one over our Hyundai Tuscon which is such a solid and practical car and has a far better reliability rating.
I like the concept of their strong hybrid ... because it opens an interesting road for further developments of the hybrid mode ... even as up-grades of a car already in use. 👍
I have been driving a new Nissan Juke hybrid N-connecta 2024 for about 8 weeks. Its not my personal vehicle & I have not driven a Nissan car before.
So far I find it good car in its price range and certainly a big improvement on the previous versions. I am not reviewing this car but pointing out a bad feature in my opinion.
The problem is “speed limit chimes” or sounds.
Initially I thought I could turn off these chimes, but after a number of calls to Nissan customer services, it now seems it is a permanent feature.
You might say why turn off a “possible” safety feature.
In driving at variable speeds there is a flashing or blinking speed sign in the instruments to let you know when going over the limit, which is enough without the chimes.
But in some driving environments such as towns & villages where the speed limit changes quickly from one to another the chimes become “an annoying distraction” especially if you are listening to music or a podcast. Even chatting to a passenger. Also getting directions from a SatNav.
This “overkill of technology” is spoiling driving experience & doing the opposite of its intentions and just to say I am not against technology.
I don’t think drivers need a car to tell them about speed limits.
If this is something that Nissan is imposing on its customers I will not be considering Nissan cars as a possible purchase or even recommending to anyone.
At least as a customer you should have a choice.
Another top review Tish, great work
Thanks a ton
Awesome video Tish!
I really didn't want to like the Qashqui but each version just gets better and i think this one is quite a looker too. But Google built-in is a yes for me.
I got the opportunity to look at the North American version of this (called the Rogue) at the Syracuse Auto Show and was quite impressed with it - especially the roughly $30K (U.S.) price point. It is definitely on my list of contenders for new vehicles to replace my current 2013 Honda CR-V. And Tish, love the outfit you wore for this review. 😉(nice legs, sweetie!) 😘❤
Unbelievably creepy comment
I still have my Qashqai +2 from 2012 with Tekna version which I still like. But I will probably switch soon to the new epower version.
Getting my e-Power next week with a wait of 9 days. Its in Gun Metal colour, my first choice was the lovely dark green called Ocean Deep but with a wait of 4 months! Why? Just have a pool of each colour & replace when bought. It's the same with most brands & not good enough. 4 weeks is the max. Sort it!
This is tekna version?
Yes looks like a really nice car now, better than ever.👍
Omg i watched your last qashqai tekna plus review and bought my first qashqai on the strength of it
Definitely want to get this one
Thanks once again for the best car reviews ever tish x
Great review Tish. Has the steering changed any? We love our qashqai but feel the steering is slightly heavy.
I enjoyed watching the Video. Red Is my favourite Qashqai Paint Colour 😊
Good choice
I shall be ordering this exact spec and colour next yr, This is the best review i have listened to and understood. Thank you for keeping it simple.
Very much enjoying your vids. I like the shape of this car and saw one on the road recently and it looked fantastic. The e power is an interesting development and would be keen to understand what BIK category this falls into.
There are no BIK benefits as it is not a plug in hybrid. Attracts 28% BIK which on a N-Connecta ePower is around £170/month
Please review the KIA Sportage HEV model. Thank you!
Just ordered an auto acenta premium. Top spec versions are nice but too expensive as they wander in to Volvo and merc price territory without any more power and I didn’t want to spend and extra 7 or 8k for a nice interior and some creature comforts.
I had the 2018 J11 Qashqai, then Nissan had a complete revamp of the design for 2021 and now just three years later another big change to the design of the vehicle. Alright if you're leasing but not great if you're purchasing. I'd rather go with a Land Rover Evoque
Why button heated steeringwheel in the dasch and not on the steering wheel?
and still in trouble with the reliable ,special with the Nissan CVT.
Sneaky game of tennis between filming lol xx
I thought a round of ladies golf...
Enjoyed the review (As usual)
Any e power in new Qashqai ? Great review 🎉
Take a look at the Nissan UK website: You only get the horrible brown (umbra leather) on the Tekna. You sure you didnt drive the Tekna model, not the Tekna Plus? I like the 19inch alloy wheels like the ones on your video, but you cannot choose 19 inch wheels and black interior trim. Tekna + has 20'' wheels and black interior trim.
Great review, Tish. I think the updated version looks really good! One question I have is what's the suspension like? I'm hoping it's not as firm as the Juke.
Softer than juke more family focused suspension, the juke is sporty and suits it's settings great on the corners
This of a Sportage Tish?
Better at the front like it
Tish looking absolutely breathtaking as always❤
Is this car coming to australia
Heyy Tishhh... do review the new gen Toyota Camry
I don't think the Rogue Sport will have all of that unlike the international markets. It's up to Nissan America
I get it’s a facelift and it’s so much improved but the graphics for the climate control are so 1980’s! Surely someone could have updated the graphics
Here we go, screen snobbery, its fine, I don't intend to watch the screen bar sat Nav & radio
Here we go, screen snobbery, it's fine, I'm not playing games on it.
N go kkhtdhj
The rear end is so MG KS / Ford Kuga , lots of homework copying going on 🤣
And the rear end matters...in my opinion.
@@thomasrpoulsen you still talking cars ? 🤦♂️
"Quashqai"? (Title card, and description above)
As someone who suffers with dyslexia, I find the name ‘Qashqai’ a NIGHTMARE to get my head around.
@@AutoSocialUK Thank goodness it wasn't a Touareg! 😉
I watched until the cockney woman said alloy wills?
I fear some people will be drawn to this car as a range anxiety free introduction into EV driving. Other reports have shown the efficiency-mpg improvements made by the e-Power hybrid system is only marginal while having none of the realised benefits of a full electic drive train - so still subject to Road Tax, still subject to ULEZ restrictions and/or charges, still subject to congestion charge, misses out on lowest BIK as still has emissions.
I think any range anxiety concern which might drive the choice for this drive train is flawed -
in the UK we now have 32 300 public EV charging sites (compare that to 8 353 petrol stations), a well chosen EV can give over 300 miles range (Lands End to John O’Groats is 837 miles) and if one has home or work place charging the fuelling costs/service and maintenance costs/road use costs can total to being an order of magnitude cheaper than an ICE per year.
If one has home charging I think this choice of drive train is a difficult argument to make.
Additionally the tiny 2.1kWh battery means the generator is almost always on charging the battery or generating power for the electric motor-noise, vibration and revs detached from how fast or how much work the car might actually be doing.
3.5miles/kWh is a typically EV efficient. You can see a 2.1kWh battery would give 7 miles!!
Of course there is the original price consideration of this compared to a similar sized battery electric vehicle. But that’s all changing with the introduction of new much cheaper EVs and massive discounts and/or purchase incentives on existing models to come as the UK ZEV mandate comes into effect this year/next year forcing manufacturers to attain a certain percentage of their vehicles sales being EV which steps up each year leading to 2035 when sale of new ICE ban comes into effect.
That’s a lot of pro-EV waffle.
A big selling point of this drivetrain is indeed the EV-like smoothness given the electric only drive.
EVs do not and will likely never be ideal for everyone. For me personally I cannot charge at home, and cannot charge at work either due to company policy. I fuel up twice a week, public charging would be a complete hassle. When I swap my car next year this will likely be my choice as it is a really pleasant drive (I’ve driven the X-Trail with this drivetrain as a rental) and the whole EV issue is one I can look to solve years down the line only when I’m forced into one
Grandad spec. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m a big fan of Grandad spec, I mean it entirely with love 😅
Sell this car in Japan as well, please 😢
Tish looks far prettier than the bland looking car😂🎉
That's not tekna + looks like a normal tekna
I think you’re right, there was a little bit of confusion. The people we spoke to at Nissan didn’t seem to fully know which was which and because I can’t build one online yet I wasn’t sure.
@@AutoSocialUK yeah think the builder has only just come out. Great review and love the colour!
Nice video of what is an unremarkable car - and bizarrely popular. Sorry, not a fan of these SUVs......
Expensive. Not reliable. Old people, notability cars
I'm reporting you for hating old & disabled people.
That brown fake leather 🤮
Why don't you explain that e-power is overly expensive and doesn't offer great efficiency.
Your a bundle of laughs 🙄
It's only like 2k more. And offers slightly better efficiency but much better drive. Also gets rid of ugly shifter from mild hybrid
great for people that want the electric drive and want to keep pollution and high fuel consumption...
Most people don't have a drive to charge them, the ICE in town won't be on much due to Regen braking that charges the bty & thus less pollution. There are queues now at charging points especially mway leading to 90mins-2hrs all told. Have you got a electric car?
Ybbkl
Garbage
Still a cheap and dull car. If only Nissan had got rid of the front lights. There nearly got it right. The grill is way too big and the Nissan logo looks lost. But then its hardly something you want to brag about that you drive a Nissan. So maybe that is a good thing.
Sharon, what did we say about posting when you’ve had a few?
Quite insulting really some of those grandads fought for your freedoms lady…maybe if we took to commenting on your dodgy attire?
Lots of people who are watching my content know it’s not an insult. I really like the more ‘classic’ leather and wood styling, it’s just more ‘old school’
Then just say that if that’s your choice that’s fine - without the ageist reference, you will become old one day 😢
Offs lighten up!! I was insulted by the lack of gender balance, what about poor Grandma??? Or maybe lets go whole hog and go the whole gender neutral thing... Im a weather beaten old fogey myself. This isnt ageist, would you be insulted by Boy (or Girl or non binary) Racer spec? Id have been insulted by a comment like 'too fast for the old fogey spec'....
There is always one and as an NHS grunt I am well schooled in and used to necessary political correctness - this comment was more ...well like an and elder person who is in a bad mood aka grumpy old git!
@@rocksock7999 thanks for the lesson on political correctness - we’ll agree to disagree
@@AnthonyBailey-t8i You are more than welcome old bean!
Saying grandad effect is not only rude, but disrespectful to the older generation, you really need to learn how to be a amiable presenter.
Found the oldie
Drive?...no sometimes i like to LEG 🦵it!❤🤭
Creepy
@@joshwalton1977 CREEP!!!!!🤣🤭
I personally prefer the pre-facelift styling of the Kaškaj.
100% agree..the chrome and headlights worked much better...
Good video, question would be able to test the full hybrid to see how much miles pre gallon it gets in the real world?
I was getting about 40mpg in the X-Trail ePower so around 40-45mpg I’d say
I have the previous Epower Tekna, 2022 model, just finished an 800 mile trip, half of which was motorway driving at 70mph, fuel usage was 58MPG. The car is really good, I'm thinking of changing to the new model soon
@@AF-eq4hfpresume you weren't on Eco mode? Quotes of 600+miles on a full tank (55ltr).
Really like the colour and facelift
The steering button lights on my 2022 Qashqai have disappeared. I’m sure it’s not the fuse. Could someone help. Thanks
I just dont get the point on having a turboed engine just to charge the batteries. Why not just put a drive shaft in it and be done with it. That new ocean colour is stunning by the way though probably scary expensive if you need a repair on a scratch etc. If its a flip style paint. Great review Tish, keep them coming.
Lot smoother drive done this way
Maximum torque from standing still. No clutch. More simple. Only electric motors on the wheels.
Because you get all the benefits of electric mode driving. The others are half & half. Go have a test drive in any electric car & you will be impressed. Nissan have done the right thing. Driving in town will be mainly electric with Regen braking.
As an American it really makes me wonder why these manufacturers make such similar cars for different markets because over here we have the Nissan Murano and the Rogue but we don't have this.... I don't understand why they make different cars for different regions when it seems like we have the equivalent of that car but it's just different but it's basically the same size Nissan suv/cross over.... it just seems like a really weird business model to make such similar cars for different countries. Because I'm sure if this was offered in America people would buy it but then I guess they would be competing with themselves if they did offer this.... jjst strange how they only make certain models for certain countries for reasons that are not so obvious to me.
Great review. What safety features automatically activate (assuming you don't use the custom mode) when the car is fired up? Currently our Audi A3 always starts with the physical lane departure warning where it literally stiffens the steering wheel rather than just sounding an alert, and honestly it's just dangerous - it gets confused way too often. To turn it off each time means several clicks through menus and I hate it!
Also - am I right in thinking there's a button on the door handles that can be pressed rather than having to use the button on the key?
Last question(!) - the driver assist custom option, is this available and activated from the shortcuts menu accessed via the steering wheel on all trims? We have ordered the N-Connecta.
Great review Tish. Has the steering changed any. We love our qashqai but we feel the steering is slightly heavy.
Looks good. No money for a new one. Will buy me a 2 year old N-Style soon. A lot of car for a good price.
That's way way over price. Not worth the money.
Is the engine made by Renault ?
Nice review tish hope your enjoying the lovely weather there
The new model looks good more stylish and better looking inside and out does it still have a Renault engine? X
Engines haven’t changed at all since the pre-facelift
Grandad Spec every time for me.
❤❤❤
Three words to describe this car - cool, wicked and awesome!
