Nissan Qashqai 1.5 E-Power N-Connecta [Glass Roof] 5dr Auto Hybrid Hatchback, , The 2023 Nissan Qashqai 1.5 E-Power N-Connecta introduces an innovative hybrid powertrain, making it a standout in the compact SUV segment. Unlike traditional hybrids, the E-Power system uses a petrol engine to generate electricity, which in turn powers an electric motor that drives the wheels. This unique setup allows the Qashqai to offer the smooth, silent driving experience of a full EV without the need to plug in. The 1.5-litre engine generates power for the 188 bhp electric motor, delivering responsive acceleration and a smooth drive. The electric motor offers instant torque, which makes city driving more enjoyable, while the system's efficiency means fuel consumption remains relatively low compared to other hybrids. However, the E-Power model is focused on providing an electric-like driving experience, rather than outright power. The N-Connecta trim provides a balanced mix of premium features and practicality. It includes an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with NissanConnect, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, ensuring seamless smartphone integration. The digital cockpit enhances the modern feel, while dual-zone climate control and keyless entry add convenience. One of the standout features in this model is the panoramic glass roof, which brings an airy and spacious feeling to the interior. It lets plenty of natural light into the cabin, making the overall driving experience more pleasant, especially on longer journeys. The interior itself is well-built, with high-quality materials and a clean, user-friendly layout. There's also plenty of headroom and legroom for passengers in both the front and rear. In terms of practicality, the Qashqai continues to impress with a 479-litre boot, which is more than enough for family trips or everyday errands. The rear seats can be folded down to expand the cargo space if needed. Safety is another strong point of the Qashqai. The N-Connecta trim includes Navi-Link, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and traffic sign recognition, providing peace of mind on the road.
