After carefully analyzing the Nissan Qashqai both outside and inside, and its dynamic qualities and performance, now we get into flour with something perhaps less attractive, but quite interesting for someone who may be looking for a car like this .
The range of crossover compact Nissan offers four different levels of finish , the most accessible it is called Visia , and is available from 19,000 euros with 1.6G petrol engine of 117 hp.
Although the equipment of this version is not the most generous, already has some elements such as cruise control , electric windows (front and rear), air conditioning, airbags, audio system with four speakers and Isofix attachments , among other things.
Equipment levels
The rest of the range is divided into three levels higher, Acenta , Tekna Sport and Premium Tekna . The unit tested had finished Tekna Sport , available from around 21,250 euros with the gasoline engine above.
If you choose the next level or Tekna premium would add to the above the leather (black or gray pearl), the smart key system, Xenon headlights and Bose audio system, seven-speaker, for example. The price of this last and most generous level stands at 23,000 euros with 1.6G of 117 hp .
The premium of 1,750 euros from Tekna Premium with respect to the previous level is not justified since none of the four additional items offered are of vital importance (halogen headlights light up as well, leather is dispensable, the same goes for the system smart key and all you could want is the Bose).
Anyway, back to our finishing, Tekna Sport . Although we have already said it is available from 21,250 euros, our unit did not ride the 1.6G but the 2.0 dCi and also the drive 4 × 4 , so that the final price with no extras is 28,050 euros. If we add to the previous price as metallic paint (416 euros) and sports alloy wheels 18 "which incorporated the car, the final price is 28,816 euros .
Among the standard equipment level Tekna Sport , the highlight is the panoramic glass roof , the system Nissan Connect (which includes touch screen navigation and Bluetooth connectivity 5 inches), the reversing camera , aluminum pedal, sticks ceiling, darkened rear windows, sound system with six speakers (with inputs USB and auxiliary), dual climate control and both the steering wheel and the knob of the gear covered with leather. Remember also that the car includes a spare wheel (not a puncture kit) that even if cookie has an acceptable size.
The range of options is broad, but not all of equal interest. Perhaps the most interesting would be the Pack Sport Chrome (which includes 18 "wheels and various two-tone chrome finish items such as door handles, the rings on the headlights and side moldings for 650 euros), removable trailer hitch (444 euros), aluminum running boards (578 euros) or parking sensors (133 euros before, 344 euros back).
Without being at all a fan of the gadgets that assemble the new vehicles (I do not like cruise control, for example), I do see particularly useful reversing camera behind . Park with this camera is a delight and easier than you ever would have thought.
Infinitely better than the parking sensors that warn you by beeping. This lets you see what is really happening back there, see the extra distance with your own eyes and on top does not bother you with loud sounds. And it is not optional! It comes standard with our finishing .
Other interesting elements that might point are the headlights with automatic activation or rain sensor , which are very comfortable because we do not worry more about little things.
Moreover, the use of the navigation system is quite easy and intuitive, which helps the screen to be touch and not have to go looking which button does what function. Although most cars take you, it is especially useful night mode , which reduces the brightness of the screen to not bother when riding at night.
Security
If we talk about safety equipment, with the finish Tekna Sport proven unit supply is more than reasonable. Includes six airbags (front, side and curtain), ABS with EBD (electronic brake distribution), ESP , Isofix and active front headrests, among other things.
The system of electronic stability control or ESP can be deactivated by a button, but should do so only under specific circumstances such as starting on a slippery
surface (like snow) or carry chains.
Not if you remember that the first Qashqai achieved in 2007 the highest score he had made any vehicle in the EuroNCAP tests. Totaled 37 points (with the old score) to five stars. Similar models like the Mitsubishi ASX have also got five stars.
Both frontal and side impact and measurements on dummies children the crossover Japan got the highest score. However, while the front bumper scored maximum, the front of the hood did not add any points, being less kind to pedestrians.
Moreover, if we compare the Qashqai with classics like the compact Audi A3 or Volkswagen Golf , both are lower in adult occupant protection. With regard to child protection lags behind the A3 but the Golf wins by one point our hero. And finally, in the pedestrian protection takes advantage the Golf will Qashqai and the A3 left behind again (only 1 star).
