Nissan Qashqai - The UK's Favourite Crossover

The market-leading Nissan Qashqai is the firm favourite when it comes to the UK’s favourite crossover and it is not difficult to see why when compared to other vehicles from the same segment. You only need to take a look at the numerous prestigious awards that the Qashqai has won to see why it comes out on top.

Alex Robbins, Used Cars Editor at What Car? Magazine said: ‘The first-generation Nissan Qashqai is still a firm favourite on the used market, and we can see why. Few SUVs of its age so convincingly combine the raised driving position of an SUV with the manageable dimensions of a family hatchback. What’s more, the Qashqai serves up a compelling blend of comfort, quality and practicality’.

‘In addition, its popularity means there are plenty of good quality examples around to choose from and this keeps prices reasonable, making this superb family SUV a fantastic used buy’.

Due to these awards, the Qashqai has also gained an excellent reputation as a go-to Nissan Motability vehicle as well as continuing to be an ever-increasing hit with families. In addition to these awards, the Qashqai is also popular due to the next-generation crossover design.  This incorporates state of the art connected features, advanced technology and outstanding handling which puts the driver in full control while behind the wheel.

With the very latest 1.5 dCi 115 Euro6d engine, class leading CO2 and enhanced Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies, Qashqai has an outstanding proposition within the segment. This is coupled with enhanced finance offers which deliver segment leading value such as:

• 0% and 4.99% PCP finance offers with up to £3250 FDA support
• £750 test drive FDA on top of all other offers
• £500 Loyalty FDA for existing Nissan customers on top of all other offers
• 2 years low cost servicing
