While we wait for the Ti, the Nissan Qashqai N-Tec is the stand-in flagship of the range – but how does it fare?
The updated UK-made Nissan Qashqai ST remains a comfortable and practical small crossover, though it's not quite the bargain its bigger X-Trail sibling is.
The facelifted 2018 Qashqai gets a fresh look, more kit and new tech. It's a good thing, but is it a standout option in the small SUV segment?

But buyers wanted more, so the amount of choice grew and grew and grew… and now there are options to fit literally all Australian lifestyles. So come with us as we explore the segment and help work out which SUV is right for you...
People are drawn to small crossovers for various reasons. Some want extra height and practicality compared to a regular hatchback, while others are drawn to the distinctive design and point of difference. The 'funky' Hyundai Kona from Korea, and the practical UK-made Nissan Qashqai, may nominally be rivals, but they go about the business of being small SUVs quite differently...
At the recent MotorWorld Sydney event at Sydney Motorsport Park, we assembled 11 small SUVs under $50,000 with the aim of comparing not only the cars, but the thoughts of the CarAdvice testing team with the thoughts of you – our readers – and other members of the public...
Call our original small SUV comparison test the elimination round. Earlier this year when we tested this new breed of fully loaded, sub-$30,000 sub-compact ‘softroaders’, the competition was fresh but clearly green (read the full comparison here). Six months on, and the class has shifted up several gears...
Nissan Australia has added the Qashqai ST+ to the line-up, bringing the total number of variants to four. Slotting between the base ST and mid-spec ST-L, the ST+ is priced from $30,790 plus on-road costs and is available exclusively with a CVT automatic – unlike the ST which features a six-speed manual as standard...
Nissan has collaborated with Opus Campers to create a concept camper trailer that features second-life battery packs from the Leaf EV to offer "up to a week's worth" of off-grid power for remote adventures. Incorporating the vehicle manufacturer's new Energy Roam system, a portable weather-proof power pack with 700Wh capacity, the concept camper trailer offers both 230V and 12V circuits with enough juice for "around seven days of camping", aided by the on-board solar panel accessory...
Nissan Europe has announced further details of its upgraded Qashqai range for 2019, headlined by a new turbocharged petrol engine and a new infotainment system.

The arrival of the exciting J11 Qashqai Series 2 was definitely one to watch out for. The upgraded standard features and the new front grille have taken it to the next level. I drove the base-model ST for a couple of months and this was my experience. What first appealed to me when I saw the car was the new look...
My wife and I recently purchased a Nissan Qashqai Ti from Sydney City Nissan. I cannot recommend a better car, after trading in my wife's Mazda 2 Neo (which was pretty basic, feature wise). My wife has found the vehicle easy to use technology wise, it is all very simple and easy to use. The way the Qashqai delivers its power is extremely smooth mainly because of its CVT gearbox...
I recently traded my Honda CR-V for a Nissan Qashqai Ti - Love it! It drives beautifully, it's economical and every feature you would like to have in your vehicle is most certainly present. Nissan is one of the few manufactures who produces a manual transmission in a top spec fit out. The Nissan Qashqai lacks very few features in the Ti Spec...
When I learn parkour here in Albert Park, Victoria, I meet Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp, Kristen Wiig beside Anne Hathaway and Anna Kendrick. They know me I am a parkour dancer. The Nissan Qashqai is one of the quietest and classiest cars of its kind, as well as one of the most practical and best to drive...
