Is the Nissan Qashqai reliable?
Yes, the Qashqai is one of the more dependable family SUVs you can buy used. Owner surveys regularly place it above average, and the 1.3 petrol fitted from 2019 onwards has aged better than the older 1.2 it replaced. The newer e-Power hybrid system from 2022 has proven smooth and trouble-free so far. Keep on top of services and the cambelt where applicable and most Qashqais will run happily past 100,000 miles.
What should I look out for on a used Nissan Qashqai?
Test the gearbox carefully on automatic models, as the CVT can feel laboured and pricey to fix if it's been neglected. Check the panoramic sunroof, where fitted, for water ingress around the seals. Listen for any rattles from the suspension on rough roads, particularly on cars with bigger 19-inch wheels. Inside, make sure the touchscreen responds quickly and the reversing camera is clear. A full service history is the single best reassurance.
What's the best year of Nissan Qashqai to buy?
For value, 2018 to 2020 cars hit the sweet spot: refreshed looks, better infotainment and the more efficient 1.3 petrol from 2019. If your budget stretches, the all-new 2021-onwards Qashqai is a noticeable step up in cabin quality and refinement, and 2022-onwards e-Power versions add hybrid economy. Stick to N-Connecta or Tekna trims for the best mix of kit, including the bigger touchscreen and parking sensors.
How many miles will a Nissan Qashqai last?
A well-maintained Qashqai will comfortably do 150,000 miles and many push past 200,000 with regular servicing. The 1.3 petrol and 1.5 diesel are the long-distance favourites, and the newer e-Power hybrid is shaping up well too. The CVT automatic gearbox is the main thing that shortens lives if it's been thrashed or run low on fluid. Sensible owners and full history are the best predictors of a long life.
Is the Nissan Qashqai expensive to run or insure?
No, the Qashqai is one of the cheaper family SUVs to run. Expect 45 to 50 mpg from the 1.3 petrol in real driving, around 55 mpg from the 1.5 diesel and 50-plus from the e-Power hybrid. Insurance groups range from about 14 to 22 depending on engine and trim, which is reasonable for the size. Road tax is sensible on post-2017 cars, and tyres and servicing are typical SUV money.
Should I buy a Qashqai petrol, mild-hybrid or e-Power?
Pick by how you drive. The plain 1.3 petrol is fine for low-mileage drivers and the cheapest to buy used. The mild-hybrid version of the same engine, fitted from 2021, smooths out town driving and saves a touch of fuel. The e-Power, from 2022, drives like an electric car because the petrol engine only charges a battery that powers the wheels. It's the most relaxing and the most efficient on long runs.
What are the best alternatives to the Nissan Qashqai?
The closest rivals are the Kia Sportage, Hyundai Tucson and Volkswagen Tiguan, all roomy family SUVs with strong used support. The Sportage and Tucson tend to be better value with longer original warranties still running on newer cars. The Ford Kuga is comfier on a long motorway run, while the Skoda Karoq is the practical choice with clever interior storage. The Qashqai usually wins on ride comfort and ease of use.
