All-New Nissan Qashqai 2022 Mild Hybrid | Short The Nissan Qashqai is the model that redefined the idea of an SUV as a mainstream family car. It came as the replacement for the unloved Pulsar hatchback, and buyers were quickly sold on the idea of a more elevated seating position and funky crossover styling. Now it’s time for the third generation of Qashqai, but many rivals have long since caught up and the competition is more fierce than ever. Automotive Daily has had an early taste. So has the Nissan done enough to keep the Qashqai competitive? From the outside, there’s the right sort of evolution, in that while you’ll never mistake the Mk3 version for its predecessor, it is still recognisable as a Qashqai. But for now at least, the new arrival seems to be offering only the basics whenit comes to powertrains. Admittedly, there is a trick range-extender hybrid version of the Qashqai in the pipeline, called e-Power, but it isn’t scheduled to arrive in dealerships until the first half of 2022. In the meantime, there’s neither a plug-in variant nor a pure-electric edition; if you’re desperate for an electrically powered SUV, Nissan will point you towards the more bespoke Ariya. The initial line-up, then, is relatively simple. While the competition in this class – everything from the BMW X1 to the Hyundai Tucson and VW Tiguan – is offered with a wide spectrum of diesels, PHEVs and petrol engines with up to 225kW, the Qashqai gets by with a single 1.3-litre, four-cylinder turbocharged petrol motor, producing either 103kW or 116kW.. #NissanQashqai #2022NissanQashqai
