New Nissan Qashqai teased
The new Nissan Qashqai – Nissan’s next generation take on its best-seller – returns for another tease ahead of a debut on 18 February.
This time we get an image of the front side of the new Qashqai (Iabove left), and although it doesn’t tell us a great deal we already have a pretty good idea of what’s on offer with the new Qashqai.
As far back as November we got to see photos of the new Qashqai – admittedly in camouflage – as Nissan decided they needed to give us some proper morsels of information ahead of the delayed debut.
Under the skin of the all-new Qashqai sits Nissan’s CMF-C Platform delivering increased stiffness and less weight, updated McPherson struts at the front and, with 20″ wheels, multi-link suspension at the back.
As far as looks go, the Qashqai will display a new look with cues from the new Nissan Juke and IMQ concept, with more room inside a more upmarket cabin for the Qashqai with a chunk of screenage.
Under the bonnet will be hybrid only – no diesel in sight – with a 1.3 litre mild hybrid with several power outputs at launch, but a very appealing 1.5 litre E-Power hybrid – effectively an EV powered by petrol – to follow.
More detail when the Nissan Qashqai gets its official reveal on 18 February.
