Nissan Qashqai SUV (2007-2013) review - CarBuyer

On the road, Nissan's Qashqai is a very comfortable to drive, and it's also well built and affordable. It offers a good choice of petrol and diesel engines and there's a four-wheel-drive option if you plan on some light off-roading, or want extra grip and stability to tow caravans or horse boxes. Nissan has a strong record for reliability, and mechanical and electrical problems are rare.

It’s 2022 and I’m thinking of getting one of these. Some good deals out there.

It's 2022 and I had one of this since 2010 (bought new). It was the most reliable car I ever had - only changed head bulbs, battery and tires. Engine was MR20DE - simple and reliable.

I've ridden in one recently. It has a reasonably high-quality fit & finish and seems to hold its own on the road. I dislike the fact that it has less interior space than a Megane.

Blind spots? That is simply an excuse for poor observation. I drive a transit van all day with only the side mirrors and front windows to see out of, and I manage just fine because I LOOK what is going on all around me!

I have one I have an Acenta 2WD 1.6 Petrol and while the running costs aren't amazing because it's petrol it's so comfy and cosy and to be honest dare I say it feels quite premium

I have Nissan Qashqai 2008 petrol 2.0, my review :-

Pros:-
1-Awesome Engine sound with low fuel consumption.
2-So quite & so comfortable so you get cheap luxury car and sporty at the same time.
3-If you want to drive at high speeds over 70 M/hr it doesn't vibrate even with 100 M/hr.
4-CVT gearbox and a cool thing though.

Cons:-
1-Boring driving as f*ck.
2-expensive car parts from the dealers.
3-the back seats are small and almost 90 degrees angle so it's not comfort.
4-It's name Sucks.

My father got a Nissan Qashqai, and im soon 18 and getting driving license, I have tryed this car a few times, and this is very amazing to drive it, you feel like you are on a truck, and also it doesnt make so big sounds, you sometimes think that the engine are with electric. The max speed I have drrive is 180 and it didnt feel like that. Many of my friends loved even the seats and said they were comfortable. No noises at all during dirving time!

My favourite small SUV, together with ASX, and RAV 4. ;)

[PSletsplays]

well I got mine black and it looks damn good. Driver seat high and I can see everything. Price is good also 25G. Just fresh out of the factory 4weeks ago. Sweet.

we had a 2011 model up until the 65 plate came out and we loved it we would have kept it but Nissan gave us a part trade upgrade. I miss that car

My dad had one since 2015, never did anything wrong we had so many road trips. Had a higher trim but was pretty rich in features. After a while it did get some issues so now we are getting a EV goodbye qashqai

[techlover]

my friends dad has this one and it is awesome( 2011) well done nissan

[kelkela]

I have this qashqai 13 plate, super happy with my car.i don't understand why is he comparing it with golf and focus and other cars that he shouldn't. And another thing he doesn't mention is the engines, especially the Renault ones.Good thing I have a petrol Nissan one.As for the twisty roads I want it to be safe and stable, not fun, especially when I'm with my family. Very good car, very minimal review.

[dylanpower]

I have a 63 plate white n-tec. It’s great car. It’s in 2.0L with 4wd and it is great with my family.

[NicBunnymen]

This is a great car. I bought the Qashqai today 1, 6 Acenta S, in the colour white. Loving it and can't wait till I get behind the wheel tomorrow and drive.
Matt thanks for your reviews with other cars, however I bought this one.

[markhart]

I found that I bang my head on the tail gate as it doesn’t open high enough & I’m not overly tall at 6ft

[cam]

Wonder how it looks and performs with a lowering kit.

Had my 2008 for over a year with no fault's. Drive's and handle's well.pot hole's, what pot holes. love the way it can go up a high curb bank when your at a standstill stuck in traffic. Nissan Tunbridge wells completed a full service, full free valet and  breakdown cover. 10/10 for them guy's. Oh and a courtesy car. glad I brought one.
