What makes the Nissan Qashqai stand out from its competitors?

The Nissan Qashqai is a phenomenon in itself. It showed that an SUV could be both spacious and agile, comfortable and packed with features despite being affordable, and capable of providing a range of safety features that many much more expensive SUVs don’t offer. However, that doesn't seem to bother buyers who are still making it their first choice in droves. There must be a reason why this model remains so popular every year. In fact, there are several reasons.

Let's explore that by highlighting what makes this model stand out. You'll immediately see why it remains so popular.

Its price

Have you noticed what's happening with vehicle prices across the industry? The trend is up, that's for sure. The Nissan Qashqai is still reasonably priced when compared to the competition. That's the best way to stand out from the crowd - by giving customers a financial break. The Qashqai delivers the value buyers want now more than ever, and it delivers a range of features at a more accessible price than its direct rivals.

Cargo volume

With a small SUV, you'd think you'd have to make a sacrifice in terms of cargo space. Not with a Qashqai. Some versions of this model can offer more than 1700 litres of cargo space, which is almost as much as some compact SUVs on the market. The Qashqai is really spacious, as well as being very accommodating for second-row occupants. With this model, you actually get the benefits of a compact model, but at the price of a sub-compact product.

On-board technology

Nissan is known for being on the cutting edge of in-car technology. The Qashqai offers compatibility with all desirable applications, as well as Nissan's connected services and an impressive sound system. Moreover, the new Qashqai offers one of the most advanced driver assistance features on the market with the impressive Nissan ProPILOT Assist system. You will be impressed with the advanced features the new Qashqai offers despite its affordable starting price.

Fuel economy

Finally, with a Qashqai, you'll realize that versatility doesn’t come at the expense of fuel economy. With a fuel economy rating of 7.3 to 7.5 L/100 km on the highway (2WD and 4WD models), you can really breathe easy financially.

Reliability

Finally, and this is another important aspect for the wallet, the Qashqai has a very solid reliability record. So, you have nothing to worry about with this model. Its maintenance costs will be minimal.

Rain Season Visibility: Wipers, Glass, Lighting and Defog

The worst driving conditions in the Lower Mainland are not snow. They are a 5pm November commute in heavy rain, on a road with standing water, with oncoming headlights scattering across a windshield that has not had a new wiper blade in three years. That situation is dangerous, and almost every contributing factor is something you can fix in an afternoon for very little money. Visibility is the... Read more
