Used Nissan Qashqai Cars for Sale

The Nissan Qashqai is a cross between an SUV and a hatchback. Car buyers love them for their space, practicality and commanding view of the road. It's smooth and comfortable to drive and has a premium, mature design.

The style of the car

The high-riding Qashqai is rugged yet stylish with a look that helps it fit in wherever you go. The five-door, compact SUV is one of Britain’s most sought-after models, with smart design playing a big part in its popularity. With everything from sensible Acenta to luxurious Tekna trims, there’s a Qashqai for all tastes and budgets.

How it drives

There’s a wide range of Nissan Qashqai models to choose from, with smaller diesel and petrol engines providing the best blend of performance and economy. The Qashqai is also surprisingly compact and, with its high driving position, it’s easy to drive and park. It’s a relaxing car to spend time in thanks to comfortable seats and low engine and road noise. It also makes a solid tow car.

The interior

All versions of the Nissan Qashqai feature five-doors and five seats and, despite its compact exterior dimensions, the interior is roomy with plenty of useful storage and cupholders. Every model is well equipped, but Tekna spec adds desirable leather trim and sat nav. The boot is big enough for several suitcases and has a neat, moveable floor that doubles as a luggage space divider.

Running costs and reliability

It’s one of the most popular cars in the UK, so there are plenty of affordable examples to choose from. The diesels and small petrol engines are economical and attract low tax bills, while lots of standard safety equipment helps to keep insurance costs down. Tried and tested components make it a durable choice, while servicing costs are no more expensive than a Ford Focus. It was given a five star rating in the Euro NCAP safety test while Nissan scored highly in the JD Power reliability survey so it shouldn’t let you down.

How it compares with similar cars

The Nissan Qashqai is smaller than the seven-seater X-Trail in the Nissan line-up. It’s been a huge hit with buyers thanks to its blend of off-roader looks, low running costs and lots of interior space. Packed with safety technology, the Nissan still wins comparison tests against newer rivals such as the Seat Ateca. It’s a former What Car Car of the Year and has won many other awards from independent experts.
