#nissan #qashqai #review - Auta a dopravní prostředky
We just bought a Qashqai Ti nearly 4 weeks ago in regional NSW and already put close to 2,000 kms on it. We looked at the Toyota Carolla Cross, good but too long a wait and dead set ugly, VW T-ROC R, nice to drive, lots of goodies but no real space in the rear seats for our tall children, Skoda Karoq, nice car all round but to bring up all the goodies my wife wanted we'd be in for $60+K. Went and looked at the 2023 Qashqai Ti, coming from a 3.0 ltr Jeep turbo diesel to this 1.3 litre turbo, we were completely surprised as to the performance of this vehicle. Even without putting it into 'Sports' mode the Qashqai has plenty of poke for passing and a lot of get-up-and-go, it is extremely quiet, has great road handling (haven't found the uneasiness of undulating roads) great stopping, it was raining the other day and I warned my wife I was going to do a hard brake test, so at about 90 kph I planted my foot on the brake, stopped dead straight, no hassle or fade. The fuel economy at the moment is averaging 6.3 l/ph so that is impressive, its only problem is learning all of the dashboard electronics. All up the drive-away price with a tow bar etc $53K - VERY HAPPY
I'd love to see Headlight tests also included in reviews. I understand it would be difficult for filming, however it is a considerable feature of most car buyers, particularly in more rural/country areas. Not to mention, it really shows the benefits of 'matrix' LED style set ups etc.
me too!
Yes.
I feel as long as they have LED headlights standard across the range not halogen, then they’re almost guaranteed to be good, but you’re right - the efficacy of the adaptive/matrix LED headlights needs to be tested. Even though the Audi (VW Group) implementation is seen as the gold standard, I’ve never been flashed more than the first night drive in our Octavia with Matrix LEDs, so that feature had to be quickly switched off! A lot of them are just too slow to react - I end up just sticking to low beam by default and only putting high beam on if there’s absolutely no oncoming vehicle.
100% need to include headlight tests. My mother won't buy a car without seeing how they perform and is very hard to test drive a car when it's dark enough due to dealers closing before sunset.
@@User-cb4jm agree. i think a more useful test is the reversing camera at night as on occasions the standards drop as Paul has mentioned on some reviews.
Lovely review Paul! Nice how you are doing horn tests now as not many other car reviewers to that test. Great video! The Qashqai looks great too!
The 1.3L engine is sourced from Renault (HR13DDT). Mecedes use this engine (M282) in A200 (120KW) and A180 (100KW).
I'm watching you especially for off road testing, regards from Poland! 👍
WHY DONT COMPANIES GIVE YOU THE LOW SPEC CARS TO TEST NOT EVERYBODY CAN AFFORD A HIGH SPEC CAR
Seems like someone needs to get their money up
Hey Paul, as more and more families are ending up needing extra storage on the roof, would you be able to include the roof rating of the vehicle within the walkthrough. Maybe near when the roof rails are mentioned. As some cars on average hold 75 and then some cars have as little as 50. Great review as always 👍🏻
No piano black in the centre console! Good job Nissan
I was today years old when I found out it's pronounced Cash-Kai. I have been calling it Cashee and no wonder no one knows which car I'm talking about. These videos about SUV's have been so helpful and informative making it easier to narrow down cars to choose from, but now I also know how to pronounce the names too :)
Hi Paul, thanks for the review. I want to make a suggestion, can you also include the towball down weight as well as towing capacity in future?
Another awesome review 👍
Hi Paul just waiting for mine to arrive and was waiting for this review I have test driven one and was pretty happy with it but living with one will be the big story
Hi, when did you order and when are Nissan expecting to deliver your car?
Great review Paul, would it be on the cards to check out the hybrid version when you can get around to it?
Just a suggestion. Interior lighting (and exterior welcome lighting) would be nice to see. Many times have I had a vastly different experience of a car by night, compared to a test drive by day.
We had a Qashqai on order, but upon inspection and testing, went with a Mazda CX5 Touring Active (same $$ as the Qashqai ). The CX5, although slightly bigger, was smoother, quieter, handled WAY better, seats were more comfortable, and strength of interior and exterior build was superior.
the cx5 is not bigger lol
@@jensrunge2932 the cx-5 is bigger being 4,575 mm L x 1,845 mm W x 1,675-1,680 mm H and the qashqai being 4,425 mm L x 1,835 mm W x 1,625 mm H🤔
Very nice design and very luxurious as well. But this kind of price I was expecting to be AWD!
Nice review Paul, could you review the tank 300 when it released? Thanks
been waiting for the qashqai reviews for a while, they all seem to have uploaded today from everyone haha.
but best looking small suv in its class. unfortunately its too expensive for us.
I completely agree with you. I'm considering a Qashqai E-power, and in addition to driving pleasure (it really feels like an electric car) it also looks very good. I am in doubt: Qashqai or Sportage. Here at my place, the price before negotiation is practically the same.
The Qashqai has come a long way since the original in 2015. I've owned a 2015 TI since new and it's been a very solid car. It now looks very basic compared to this!
Hey Paul, excellent review as always. I know you mentioned that a hybrid version will be released later, but is there an AWD version available?
Pretty sure these are only 2 wheel drive in our markets my. Kiwis that wanted 4wd import Dualis from Japan…same thing but x trail like 4wd set up
2 wheel drive QASHQAI E Power only.
X Trail 4WD is called E Force
In Europe and Latin America, AWD variants of the Qashqai J12 are available.
I hope AWD variants can be considered for Australia as well.
Great review as always. Please test the adaptive cruise in traffic too.
Thank you!
True, ACC with steering
Important! A lot of adaptive cruise systems suddenly lose track of the car in front and abruptly cuts off the whole cruise control system on the highway.
@@User-cb4jm A lot of them do eh? What's the list of cars this occurs in?
@@User-cb4jm Exactly, that's why we should test and compare them. Some reviewers say, Subaru has the best in class, but there is no actual comparison on the internet.
These features not only provide more safety, but also they ease the driving experience in bumper to bumper traffics which we face everyday. So, we better not overlook it.
@User Eyesight never failed us since 2016. Best software beats 500k brands.
Looks great Paul! Best in the segment you think?
Amazing Vid! Can you please do the Toyota Rav4 Hybrid Cruiser 2023 next. I'm really looking forward for your review on the car!!
please keep doing a good work...... .
Hi Paul, I hope you are doing well and thank you for your hard work. I was looking for Kia Cerato review on you channel but I think you have not reviewed one yet. I ordered Kia Cerato 2023 Sports+ yesterday. I would be truly appreciated if you can review the new Kia Cerato if you can. As far as I am concerned, Cerato has huge sell in Australia. Hope you see my comment.
THANK YOU PAUL
Nice review. We looked at seltos sports plus 2023 new model. It had old halogen headlights. Yellow glow, and halogen daytime running lamps. All 3 lower spec seltos are halogen. For over 40k for the seltos sport plus. Family ordered mid level quashqai. Nice review. ....and a good point about Australian fuel. Our 91RON is terrible quality.
Do you recomand nissan qashqai or hyunday tucson 2023? I want ro buy one of them, thank you
Would love to see the new BMW X1 (especially iX1) and the Subaru Outback XT 2.4L turbo reviewed on your channel!
I'm not sure why you haven't got the same spec, as we get in the UK. We have the same 1.3 turbo 4-cylinder engine, which is 156 psi/bhp with mild hybrid. That boosts it to 158 psi/bhp. That might have something to do with your emissions laws. I also have 20-inch wheels with multi link suspension on the rear. It doesn't lean round corners and is pretty poised on twisty Country Roads. The rest of the spec, is the same as my top of the range Qashqai Tekna +, as they call it here, in the UK. We also have an all-wheel drive version, which also has multi link on the rear, instead of the torsion beam setup. I understand that you will be getting epower soon. Very thorough review. It is a great car. Thank you.☺
Impressive interior I must say🎉
Its just amazing how much power modern engines can make. 1.3L is less than a size of a coke bottle. I think turbo is doing much of the work
Do you know when the Qashqai TI e-power is coming to Australia?
Rear reminds me of Toyota. We have 2019 Qashqai and to be honest, 360 camera haven’t changed. The 360 can be improved
Hey Paul are you able to elaborate more on ride quality with your reviews like city/ highway/rough roads. Great review cheers🎉
Any chance that they will introduce All Wheel Drive variants for the Australian market?
I thought it comes with passenger and driver seat speaker system! Is it not for Australian market?
While we did get a Quashai sold as a Rogue Sport in the US, a shame that we did not get the 1.3T.
Can you do reviews of the entry models? I don’t know how many people buy the full spec? 🤷🏻♂️
Can you review either the glb 35 amg or the glc 300e phev?
The old qashqai camera quality was VGA. Good to see a better camera
Hey Paul. I’d like to see a review of the base model rather than this very pricey top one. It’s starting to approach the cost of a low end Audi
Noob question: I’ve watched a couple other car channels & none of them have done the reverse test. How do you know when the car maxes out speed wise in reverse?
buy? nope, 1.3t over stressed, CVT, some halogens, 95 ron, ..same graphics as Outlander,
piano black right where fingers drag over on man. buttons
a question , what is the relevance of the side window needing to slide all the way down ?
At least this model only has incandescent reverse lights, the rest all LED! Lower models get a few more incandescent bulbs though!
Bmw 1 sries 118i m sport or e power ? Wich one?
I don't kwon wich one to choose
also why didnt they change the interier lights to led's??
1.6 litre , 140kw and 6 speed Auto would make the good looking Qashqai a ripper.
Good looking suv but not convinced about the engine or cvt. I think a kia seltos gtline with the 1.6 turbo and torque converter auto is the better buy you also get ventilated seats with the kia
Looking forward for GWM tank 300 review.,
gearbox dont fail anymore after 100kms? please reply
Why do the rear lights look very similar to the latest Kluger
Paul have you lost weight?? Looking good mate!!
dude forgot to do the window test ...well almost.... LOL Otherwise easily the best car reviewer on the planet.
Not a bad car at all. Looks good too
Can someone explain why Nissan is charging $4000 for servicing this car over 5 years. I have been waiting for new models of Qashqai and x trail and looking at the prices for last 6 months. Nissan has increased the price of X trail by $3000 (except for the base model) and increased servicing cost of this Qashqai.
Because they can I guess...
Why not use a local mechanic or shop at a fraction of that cost. Or better yet, do your own maintenance and save significant amounts of money.
I would like to know how much money car manufacturers are saving by using incandescent lights? I would've thought that top of the range deserves the nicer looking lights.
Just went to have a look at the car and I have to say it looks good. Back seat legroom decent, however the most uncomfortable back seats i’ve ever sat in. Absolutely no under-thigh support.
How good is the Jatco transmission... good I hope now after 20 years of rubbish.
Tell me you don't care about cars, without telling me you don't care about cars. Nissan: "Hold my beer".
Hey Paul, a thoroughly excellent review. On our base model Qashqai, we noticed a white mark on the P button on the shift stick similar to what could be seen on the 11:19 minute mark. Is that normal? If yes, it certainly is an odd design choice.
its normal its a part of a design
@@chandimapriyavithana8535 I contacted Nissan and they have agreed that it is a defect.
Massage seats in this segment and in a car under 50k!? That's cool!
Thank u
This car is very slow and thirsty for the on-road price of about $52K drive-away. Toyota Yaris hybrid ($39K drive away) has similar performance to this car costing $52K drive-away. A direct competitor, Toyota Corolla Cross hybrid has much more power/torque and offers vastly better economy for just $2K more. Once this Nissan car gets a hybrid model it will be more expensive drive-away that Corolla Cross hybrid AWD (top of the range). The big advantage of Nissan Qashqai over Corolla Cross is that Toyota has 18-24 months waiting list for all popular hybrids and it's actually getting worse, not better. There is a big opportunity for Nissan and other car makers to topple Toyota purely due to their inability to deliver cars so customers. Those waiting may lose patience and buy other brands, because 2 years is too long to wait for many people. Interesting times we live in. 2023 Kia Seltos also has a 9-12 months waiting list but it's cheaper than Nissan Qashqai and Kia has 7 year warranty and in 1.6 turbo form it has better performance and similar economy and better 8-speed automatic transmission.
Best reviewer in the business
Look good, but cvt, no thanks. Paul, could you look into your vidio volume. I thought its just me getting old, but compared yours to others, there is defnitly a lot less volume. Love your vidios mate.
Like another comment on here, headlight performance appreciated, and also engine speed at 100kph cruise. Bulk of my driving rural night stuff so headlight performance important, but also engine speed at a steady cruise hour on hour. Modern engines are refined, but a 4 pot buzzing at 1700rpm is much nicer to listen to than 2500rpm. Maybe swap out your reverse speed test…unless your mum on the school run trying to get the last car park
Could someone please let him know, that model out a few years now,
So what's the point of using a low compacity eng then whack a turbo for additional omph coupled with Nissan's famous CVT that shits itself post warranty clearly it's not fuel economy and as added bonus requires 95ron
Nissan hasn’t had major cvt issues since 2013. Nor, has any cvt from any manufacturer. Cvt issues these days are due to lack of maintenance and or abuse. The same as with any transmission.
Very nice car inside and out, just seems a bit lack luster in the engine department
Cars nowadays tend to be more practical and driver oriented with more cup holders apple car player more connectivity more economic more comfortable etc
But the 0-100 kinda went into this reasonable efficient place which is as long as under 10 seconds the car is fast enough for a “normal” person who is not going to race Vin Diesel in Fast and Furious movie
Yes sure 0-100 in six seconds is faster but are you ready to pay the price for just 4 seconds? V6 turbo turbo charged or even V8
Doesn't have to be V6 or V8 to be faster....VW and Skoda make faster cars with small 4 cylinder engines. Heck even the Holden Astra has a 1.6 turbo which does 0-100 in 6 or so seconds.
Great looking car. Bit expensive for a Nissan though.
I've been into qashqai for a long time. Love the car. I think (hope) this one is as good. BUT why do you testers test only the top of the line model? Of course they will have everything. Not many will buy the top model because relatively, those models are quite pricy compared to other brands. What about the mid range ones, ie, ST+ and ST-L? I'd love to see those.
Holy misaligned panels Batman!
British build quality lol
Nice, Nissan upgrading most of Thier suv except patrol, inside starting to look like a prehistoric.
Odd that new top tier cars are still being released without both wireless smartphone options. Apple and Android must drive a hard bargain. Or the carmakers do. 🤔
I really love all the parts of the new qashqai except one big issue --> these underpowered engines and especially that there is NO diesel engine! I hate that fact!
And this could really turn my buy decision away from nissan 😢
Coming from a Jeep turbo diesel to this 1.3 litre turbo, we were completely surprised as to the performance of this vehicle. Even without putting it into 'Sports' mode the Qahqai has plenty of poke for passing.
By downsizing the displacement of these engines and then turning up the boost to give it decent performance > don’t expect these power plants to last a long time!
Edit:And add to that 20k oil service intervals…it practically becomes a disposable car!
Aren't all cars disposable? You very rarely see a 20+ year old car on the road
Hello CarExpert Paul Maric very nice new suv 2023 Nissan Qashqai Ti suv auto people and pensioners like air conditioner/ heater and massage seat and back heater seat and heater wheels much-much-more
After whochin you test drive I am going to bay haval h6 it's biga end much cheaper thenks mate
I like the design inside and out. It is however too expensive considering that lack-lustre 1.3 litre motor. A 1.8 (no- turbo) direct and port injection engine with a torque converter auto would make this a great car.
The old 1.8 was sluggish, it would also be a lacklustre engine for this car at this price. Most competitors (CX-30, Kona, Seltos) have a 2.0 atmo and that’s only for cheaper trims, and in higher trims comparable to this Qashqai Ti a 2.5 atmo in the CX-30 and a 1.6 Turbo in the Kona/Seltos.
I like turbos, you get the fuel economy of a small engine with the power of a larger engine. They just can’t downsize the engine too small, the 1.3T equates to the same amount of power as the 1.8 so it’s not impressive. The Hyundai/Kia 1.6T has the kind of power you’d get in the 2.5L Mazda.
@@User-cb4jm the old one in Australia had a 2.0 GDI engine (MR20DD). This engine is prone to carbon deposits due to direct injection. Toyota have a range of Dynamic Force engines that combine both direct fuel injection and port fuel injection. These engines are not turbo charged, are extremely efficient and offer higher power options. Nissan should follow this example and there is no need for turbo charging which ultimately causes issues in the long run.
Your average buyer won't even notice😁
A 1.8 N/A sounds like a really horrible engine. It would be way worse than this.
@@lamborghini0610 Honda Integra type r engine in a Qashqai... Lol
The Nissan Kaškaj was named best selling vehicle in the UK in 2022.
Best selling small suv..and also most hated suv 😂
@@dolguldur4706 I have no idea why so many people in the UK would buy that horrible suv.
Oh wait, it’s built in the UK, and a lot of times, a popular vehicle in a country is one that’s built in that country.
But at least it’s one with the option of AWD, but I can imagine that most people here in the UK avoided the AWD system.
@@DaveDVideoMaker probably the price...its not expensive,so people can use it without have to care for it..😂
@@dolguldur4706 Nowadays, most people would just buy a worthless crossover SUV, which really sickens me, especially one without AWD.
And it sold roughly 1/4 of the amount of fiestas sold pre 2020. the moment the fiesta came back on sale it went straight to #1. You have to give some context to that statement. UK sales are dismal.
its a renault, buyer beware, remember the renault sourced 3.o litre in the patrol they nicknamed the hand grenade? says it all really
I'm in the UK I've got a brand new Quashquai but I will not buy another. Everytime you start the car you have to accept or decline a disclaimer which is incredibly annoying and dangerous as half the time you are already driving. I have spoken with the dealer and this can't be removed.
In Australia - Had the same in our 2005 Toyota Kluger 4x4, the same in my 2011 Mercedes B200 turbo but it does turn itself off, the same in our 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the same in my daughter's 2016 Suzuki SX-4 (in fact this one is a pain as the touch screen is not so sensitive). Our 2023/24 Qashqai Ti sure has it but the screen is really good. I think it is mandatory in some countries and just another annoying feature of our 'modern' vehicles.
Qashqai..matt from high peak autos really hated this car 😂
Such a shame the Nissan service centers are so poor.. Really like the look of this car, but after seeing the Nissan service centres I wont be getting one. Nissan could learn a thing or two if they visited a Mazda Service Centre.
0-100 was disappointing... for the price mark 7.5-8s would of been more acceptable
cvt and 1.3 motor .no thanks otheerwise its a nice car with many features .Never understsnd why manufacturer use tiny engines on mid size cars/suv .Min should be 2.0t
I liked this car but I don't trust the reliability of Nissan which isn't helped by the fact they offer a lower year warranty than a lot of other car companies
Styling very similar to current Subaru Impreza
Nissan Cashcow 🐮
43,000$ for a 1.3L and a CVT!
Nobody:
Paul: mmmm that's a bit disappointing.....
‘You have’
The back looks like a Toyota Corolla cross
I'd sacrifice LED indicator bulbs for better something else, i don't get the sticking point on this channel about this. 🍻
Aww man. Why is it front wheel drive?🤦🏿🤦🏿🤦🏿
Kia selftoss 😂
Harsh and sloppy handling. Slow and expensive. Another winner from Nissan.
People will buy them thou
As well as 95 RON fuel prices in Oz; not for me.
