Nissan Qashqai:Review the specs, features and pros & cons

Nissan Qashqai Safety

No matter which year you're looking at, the Nissan Qashqai delivers loads of standard and optional safety features across all trims. From 2017 onwards, drivers can expect five standard airbags, daytime running lights and brake assist, which helps you stop the car faster in an emergency. The higher trim level on the Nissan Qashqai 2018 and 2017 offered optional safety functions like blind-spot monitoring and lane-keeping assist. The 2020 Nissan Qashqai was released with the brand's Safety Shield 360, a suite of advanced standard safety functions.

Nissan Qashqai Interior

As a subcompact SUV, expect to find every manual control within easy reach. Since its 2017 release, the Nissan Qashqai has boasted a spacious interior that's suitable for passengers of all sizes. Air conditioning is standard across all trims, and for a little extra, drivers can opt for a moonroof. Cloth seating is standard, but leather seating is also available. There are plenty of add-ons available, such as:

• Heated seats
• Leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob
• Six-way power-adjustable driver seating (manual adjustments are standard)

Nissan Qashqai Technology

If you're looking for easy smartphone integration, check out the Nissan Qashqai 2019 when Apple Carplay and Android Auto first became available. Since its first release, this subcompact SUV has given drivers more than their fair share of technical features, such as:

• Wireless cellphone connectivity
• Backup camera
• Touchscreen infotainment system

The higher trim levels on the 2017 and 2018 models offered fun add-ons like smart device integration, but this became standard on the basic trim line of the 2019 release.

Nissan Qashqai Space

The Nissan Qashqai seats up to five passengers, and while it does boast a spacious interior and tons of cargo space, adults might feel more comfortable in the front row. Despite its subcompact class, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the amount of trunk space, which outshines many of its rivals. For even more storage, you can take advantage of its Divide-N-Hide system, which gives you extra room to stow items in the floor. This system was optional in the 2017 and 2018 models, but became standard in 2019.

Nissan Qashqai Comfort

Driving in the Nissan Qashqai is smooth and composed. With easy handling, this model feels more like a car than other SUVs in its class. Navigating through narrow spaces is an easy task, and turning around tight corners feels balanced and controlled. Front-wheel drive is the standard drivetrain across all base models, but all-wheel drive is an available option for all trim lines.
