2024 Nissan Qashqai "What's New!"
Welcome everyone to my “What’s New” video of the 2024 Nissan Qashqai.
The updates to the 2024 Qashqai are a little more than skin deep.
We have a new trim level N-Design.
Added to the car are Google Assist, alcantara, a larger screen and dials that final glow the colour depending on you drive mode selection!!!!
With the Qashqai’s exterior we have a new front and rear grills, bumpers and lights with a Samurai Armour grill up front incorporating some copper accents and boomerang DRL’s. These actually compliment the second DRL’s which look very Juke-ish and incorporate scrolling/dynamic indicators.
Drive wise the Qashqai hasn’t changed and still has a lovely drive to it. With a fine balance of ride comfort and sharp handling.
Engines remain the same with 2 mild-hybrids, featuring 2/4WD, manual or X-Tronic boxes.
Pictured is the E-Powered version which still features its unique power plant and drive where the engine never sends power to the front wheels and acts as a generator.

Everything’s Electric was the venue to unveil the new Skywell BE11. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to film around the car but please check Instagram for more pics. A new electric family SUV. Available with either a 72 kWh or 86 kWh battery, the BE11 should appear to a wider EV customer base. Ranges are 248 and 309 miles (WLTP) and both cars weigh under 2 tonnes. Power is around 200 bhp and 320 Nm....

Cupra Formentor Review
zhlédnutí 2,2KPřed měsícem
Welcome everyone to my review of the Cupra Formentor. Since Cupra formed back in 2018, they have brought us 4 models. Two from Seat and two of their own, one being the Formentor and ever since I saw it a couple of years ago I have been so keen to get behind the wheel. Available with various engine choices and power outputs, the Formentor will appeal to a wide audience. Not just from its looks, ...

Suzuki S Cross Review
zhlédnutí 9KPřed 2 měsíci
Welcome everyone to my review of the Suzuki S-Cross. Suzuki are a brand known for their no nonsense vehicles. Rugged, dependable and comfortable. The S-Cross is an alternative to the Vitara by providing a more road friendly looking car compared to its SUV brother. But without reducing its off-roading capabilities. The S-Cross is available as a mild and full hybrid, 2 and 4 wheel drive and with ...
Kia EV9 Media Drive

Welcome to my first drive of the new Kia EV9 "Air" & "GT-Line" Trim levels. Who'd have thought that Kia, a company that just a few years ago brought us the Venga, would bring us this beast and be taking on the Germans, JLR and Volvo! The EV9 is the Korean brands flagship electric SUV which can seat 6 or 7 people. Power comes from a larger 99.8 kWh battery. Rear or all wheel drive with ranges ov...
The AutoBear 2024 Trailer
zhlédnutí 18KPřed 3 měsíci
I've never done a trailer for the channel before! Welcome to AutoBears!!
New massive grill , great insect catcher 😅
Steering too light and suspension rolls badly in the corners not enjoyable to drive at all. Issues with auto hold system takes 2 seconds to activate it should be instant.
having just covered 2000miles I get 50mpg on average,
😮Well done sir and not in the iconic car country like portugal LOL in a left hand drive, like the previous vids a few days before . Ps last samurai ( sod historic al facts ) excellent , especially the main character played brilliantly by ken watasomething . He now looks like a old chainsmoking police dad in the current series tokyo vice , if you haven't seen it , take a peek. Oh its still left hand drive , oh your in Portugal ?? Why ,when there made up north in England . Pathetic. .
Nice review you mentioned a few things about the rain that no one else has in their reviews and believe me I know as I have watched just about all of them on youtube. I have the GT Line S HEV on order now but not got a delivery date as yet. Would have liked a video showing the head lights at night as they do look a little small for the car. Too late now though I just loved how it drove and the comfort provided and of course all the tech so fingers crossed on the lights. Better than my VW Tiguan R Line.
Great car, got the pre-facelift with nice discount 3 months ago, amazing value!
I love the new look. It has a,l ways been a really good car.
To take your handbrake niggles away, ensure that the auto-hold button behind the brake switch is on. Unlike e-pedal, this stays on after shutting down the engine. I've never had to touch the main handbrake switch since I got the car last year with this button on. Automatically disengages the handbrake as you press the accelerator, and automatically puts it on as you come to a stop, if you're pressing the brake pedal - you get a green 'A' with a circle around it at the bottom of the dashboard when it is engaged.
Thanks for the review. I have been leasing a 2024 N-connecta E-power for about 6 weeks now & really enjoy driving it. One small bugbear is that every time the engine is switched off & back on I am prompted to accept or decline the Nissan tracking. Is there any way to get it to remember my choice? Thanks again.
PRICES HAVE NOW DROPPED! There is quite alot more on the advance. I had the advance for a day and absolutely loved it. I love the fact there's less room for kids to leave rubbish in the doors, especially with my first grandchild on the way😂 It feels familiar to the Civic (Gen10) which I'm going from. Yes it's safe but definitely not lacking. The infotainment sold me massively too. I love the fact you pointed out about mobility, the reason I'm changing is because of mobility issues and it's the one that's stood out for me physically, the height was ideal and positioning getting in and out of the car ideal which I struggled with on other SUV'S. The drive is great and not far off the Civic. I love the sport mode and I'm country driving and it handles really well. I'm a weird one where I don't like the regen and never use it! I love the Honda sensing and safety features. You can get some really good deals now with Honda and price has dropped as have finance deals and really worth looking at now. The advance has better sound proofing which is in the tyres, I barely heard any road noise and our Cotswolds roads are awful! I order mine tomorrow. The advance with the white interior. I've always been a petrol head and never thought I'd go electric but this car swayed me. Roll on September! Thanks for the review!
I've got the qashqai E-power with the same 1.5 engine. The mpg is unbelievable. I live in a high altitude location and can get 99 mpg but coming uphill I'm looking at about 40 mpg. Avoiding hills I get 70 mpg and about 50-55 mpg on motorways.
I suggest anyone considering buying one should first look at the trustpilot score...71% 1 star. Main issues lack of customer support and MG use any reason not to fulfill 7 year warranty
I just purchased a 2022 low mileage Q4 Awd Sportback 50 TFSI. Incredible car
09:58 - "Burnt Umber" it's Brown .. Why Nissan, WHY !! The blue trim on the previous Tekna level was fine, why go 40 years retro back to the 1980's and shove a vile brown into the mix. It's not even a little bit brown .. everywhere you look, it's BROWN ! :(
Smart looking car inside and out, great colour too.
Is the colour of this one iron metal ?
You enlightened it perfectly and it made such a big difference to make decisions 👍🏾
Thanks for this review, the first I have seen on this updated Qashqai. Exterior looks much better, especially the front. Liking that green too. Some nice thoughtful changes inside, although, I would like to see a non-reflective surface on top of the dash, to stop all those reflections on the inside of the screen. When will car manufacturers get that right? I have a '22 reg Tekna + that has spent the last 10 weeks in the garage because the battery discharges randomly it seems, and so far Nissan UK have been unable to find a fix for it.
Great review plenty of food for thought mate 🤔👏😎
Love these reviews ❤
When are you looking at the new Peugeot 3008 fast back
I had to get used to the firm suspension at low speed. But I am used to it now and now I love the suspension. But I still have to get used to the tire noise. Because the car is very silent you can easily hear the rolling of the tires. You here the difference of noise on the kind of asfalt or brick roads. The more I start to pay attention to it. The worse it gets
Gearbox gets easily gets confused. Car very noisy inside at 60. Definitely not for me after road test
If you ignore the price, what would you give this car out of 10?
6, but the auto gearbox is a nightmare, the worst automatic i have ever driven in almost 50 years as a driver
@@keithhumphries2109 though it is a DCT isn't it?
Yes it is
@@keithhumphries2109 a DCT isn't an automatic though. It an automated manual.
이딴거 살빠에 레이 여러개사고 묶어다니는게 더 좋을듯
Great review
Very good again loveit
Are you able to say how 2025 model has changed ,and is there ambient lighting in front of passenger in air vent ??
So you don’t like the lower area (where you’d put your mobile phone)?…..So how about the higher level, cushioned cubby, above it…that’s DESIGNED for holding a mobile phone? 😬
Such a good looking car
I'm gutted to hear that the interior is largely unchanged, nothing to do with quality, as I test drove the last model and loved the quality. My problem was front legroom. I'm 6'3, and within 300yds I was cramping up. The seats don't go anywhere near far enough back 😢. I managed about 12 miles. I asked the salesman if they sold runner extensions and he looked at me like I had 2 heads... but then, he was about 4 foot and a fag end tall! 😂 Sorry, but that was a deal breaker, if you're over 6ft you'll really struggle. It's a shame, I would definitely have bought it if it wasn't for that...
Great review. BUT can you turn off the 'bongs'?
Why aren't they dressed for a presentation of such importance? Sad
Ordered 1.6 T
Excuse me Sir-I OWN ONE o these..hate to tell ya but THE STEERING WHEEL IS IN THE WRONG SIDE‼️🤪 LOVE THIS “fuzzy feelin” FINE MACHINE! What FUN TO DRIVE‼️😎
i got one now hire car 8 months old and its a piece of crap , drives horid so many faults flashing up
Thank you for a very comprehensive review of this vehicle. As someone who is considering purchasing this vehicle, you answered most questions I had. By chance were you able to test it during the night?
Put it in sport mode 🤦🏼♂️
Looking at a 222 model, in two minds as I was looking at the citroen c4 aswell
Hello It's Dave from.New Zealand I'm very happy with the car and it's performance. The only issue is the Superfast Chargers In 1 yr and 7 months aprox Twice it was charged and wouldn't work afterwards. Thanks for the great review Dave Thanks
Simply the best car I’ve ever driven ❤
Well presented one thing you did not show how to lay the back seats down to carry large items.❤
Have one of these, love it. Nice review, thanks.
How do i get the green calipers ?
Thank you for your comment. They are an optional extra you can order when speccing your car. Dave
@@AutoBears I see , don't think they are here in Canada unfortunately
That is boring as hell - even the guy speaking sounds bored off his tits having to talk about it.
Looks a Honda from Temu.
There is a very generic suv look to it.
The Skywell BE11 is already available in Poland, Romania and Turkey as the Skywell ET5, and as the Elaris Beo in Germany.
But not the UK just yet
@@AutoBears I know; it’s coming here later. Same with certain other parts of the Balkans, including Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Serbia, Makedonija and Bulgaria.
@@DaveDVideoMaker great. I’ll take it from here thanks Dave.
That's a GTS ,I've got a stock lease of a GT line coming in week or so, in infrared, looking forward to it.
It’s a surprise the boot is so small since this is basically a hatchback version of the latest Outback. We had the last XV and even though on paper it was small it was actually very practical but have to say the overall car did feel like it needed an update. This is more than a mid-life facelift though
Something interesting going on with YT algorithms- I’ve searched Torres content every day and this has not once showed up even though I’m subscribed. Today it randomly shows in my feed!! Weird
