It’s not easy to become a trendsetter, but the Nissan Qashqai managed it incredibly well, lighting a firecracker under the family SUV trend, and catching on so rapidly that millions of them are now on the road. The thing is though, you have to evolve to remain at the top – and that’s exactly what Nissan has done with the Qashqai, retaining the qualities that made it so popular while adding new technology and engines to the line-up. If you’re looking for a family SUV packing plenty of tech at a fair price, the Nissan Qashqai is one to consider. It’s one of the UK’s most popular cars, even in the face of strong competition such as the Volkswagen Tiguan and Skoda Karoq. You can think of the Nissan Qashqai as The Beatles of SUVs. It wasn’t the first of its kind, but it revolutionised the genre and spearheaded a surge in demand for high-riding family cars. This latest version of the modern icon is the best-looking yet, thanks to its prominent V-shaped grille and svelte rear end. As standard, you’ll get 17-inch wheels but if street cred is a big concern you’ll want to upgrade to a higher-spec model with 20-inch alloys. All in all, the Nissan Qashqai looks the part and drives nicely. Even if you think the Qashqai is a bit of a boring car, it's an amazing social phenomenon. Hugely influential. Responsible for thousands of jobs in the UK – where it's designed, engineered and built. And it has accounted for one in five of all the cars made in this country since 2007, and that can't be a bad thing! Nissan upgraded pretty much everything bar the base petrol engine, but was careful not to upset a winning formula. So the third-gen Qashqai is slightly bigger, sharper to look at but still recognisable. It’s also more sophisticated in its electronics and driver assist, but still straightforward and intuitive to operate. The suspension is taut, the ride busy but not harsh. There's some lateral shuffling over uneven roads, too. Best bit is the solidity. The suspension doesn't shudder, the body doesn't quiver, the seats and steering wheel are mounted together with wobble-free integrity. Road noise is low on most surfaces. All of which gives it a premium quality that even some of the 'premium' crossovers can't actually match. Nissan always loads its cars up with driver assist, and provided you have the auto box the Qashqai brings the next stage of Nissan’s ProPilot set-up. As before it's an active cruise and lanekeeping system. New this time is a link to the navigation, so it'll slow you up on approach to roundabouts and bends. It's easy to use, with a self-explanatory interface. But it's good at giving you a nudge if you rely on it too much. The Qashqai is the establishment and no longer a clear leader. But it's also hard to argue against. More than ever this new generation is conceived with thoroughness, and executed with laser focus. Besides, a vast number of existing Qashqai owners are ready for a trade in. It doesn't let them down. All in all this makes for an excellent purchase!.Air Conditioning, Climate Control, Metallic Paint, Cruise Control, Satellite Navigation, Alloy Wheels, DAB Radio, Bluetooth, Low Mileage, USB, Diamond Cut Alloy Wheels, Apple/Android Play, Rear Camera, Auto Lights, Lane Departure, Lane Keeping Assist, Pre Crash Prevention& Rain Sensors, Privacy glass, Splash free rain sensing wipers, Auto rear wiper when reversing, One touch front and rear electric windows with remote opening and closing, Super UV and infrared cut glass, Electronic parking brake...
