2020 NISSAN QASHQAI ACENTA PREMIUM DC

The Qashqai has been a huge car for Nissan ever since its release in 2007. It was one of the first cars to enter the crossover market and quickly became the biggest seller in that class. Because of that, this generation of the Qashqai is already a guaranteed success. That said, it still has an awful lot to live up to. It’s longer and wider than the outgoing model, yet lighter, giving it the edge in terms of efficiency. With some tweaks made to the appearance, it’s even better looking than before and definitely one of the best in its class in terms of design. The cabin has also undergone a makeover - everything looks and feels top quality, the central console looks fantastic, and there’s just as much passenger space as the outgoing model. In terms of performance, if you’ve ever owned or driven the previous version, you’ll know just what to expect from the new one. It feels planted, assured and very smooth on the move. It handles really well and the steering is precise. There’s also a good selection of capable engines that do well when it comes to emissions and fuel economy.
