The Nissan Qashqai was the first compact crossover ever released, setting the blueprint for others to follow back in 2006. In the nearly two decades since its launch, it has received countless refinements and improvements. The Qashqai is now in its third generation, with the 2023 model boasting the most advanced design yet. If you're looking for a city-friendly SUV with lively performance and premium interior comfort, the Qashqai is ready to deliver.
Nimble Performance for Daily Driving
The Qashqai's compact size makes it ideal for navigating city traffic, with a powertrain that adds an edge of nimble performance to make quick, smooth work of daily drives. All models in the lineup are built around a 2.0-litre gas engine that delivers 141 horsepower and 147 lb-ft of torque, and feature continuously variable transmission to front-wheel drive at the entry-level trim or all-wheel drive on the other trims. Importantly for a crossover aimed at everyday driving, the Qashqai is also highly economical, boasting an impressive 8.0 L/100 km combined for the front-wheel drive model and 8.3 L/100 km for all-wheel drive.
High-End Safety and Driver-Assist Features
For greater peace of mind, all 2023 Nissan Qashqai trims come equipped with an extensive range of safety and driver assistance technologies. Standard highlights across the range include:
- Blind spot warnings to avoid collisions when changing lanes
- Rear cross traffic alerts for extra safety when reversing
- Lane departure warnings and active lane intervention to prevent sideways drift on the highway
- Intelligent forward collision warnings that monitor the speed of the vehicle ahead
- Automatic forward emergency braking with pedestrian detection
- Automatic rear emergency braking
Higher Qashqai trims also include two extra levels of driver assist technology, with an intelligent cruise control system providing semi-autonomous highway driving, plus an around-view monitor with moving object detection to simplify parking and manoeuvring in crowded areas.
Premium Interior and Infotainment
The Qashqai's premium interior makes every drive as comfortable as possible so that you'll arrive at your destination feeling relaxed and ready to go. Depending on the trim, options include heated front seats, air conditioning, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a choice between soft cloth or leather-appointed seats. There's also a generous range of technology included as standard, based on a 7.0-inch touchscreen display giving easy access to Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and streaming audio via Bluetooth. A 5.0-inch display is dedicated to the driver assist systems, while Nissan's powerful Door to Door navigation system is available as an optional upgrade.
