QASHQAI RANGE REFRESHED

Nissan South Africa has announced a slight refreshment of its Nissan Qashqai range with the arrival of the new Nissanconnect 2.0 infotainment system. This advanced system enhances the relationship between owner and vehicle through seamless and intuitive smartphone integration.

The new interface has a smooth, intuitive display; a redesigned fascia; customizable home-screens and widgets, as well as single line search – a new functionality in the navigation system (on the Tekna model only), which speeds up and simplifies the process of finding a location. The seven-inch touchscreen features a new button layout as well as a new processor for faster response without compromising the operability of any currently active functions. Nissanconnect 2.0 comes standard with both Android Auto and Apple Carplay as well as a rear-view camera, which allows for safer parking. Nissan Intelligent Mobility (NIM) features are now available on Qashqai models other than the Tekna. These include Intelligent Forward Emergency Braking, Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, Intelligent Blind Spot Warning, and Intelligent Cross Traffic Alert.

The Nissan Qashqai 1.2T is now available with a CVT (continuously variable transmission) in the Tekna grade. It also comes with additional NIM features, including Intelligent Around View Monitor, Intelligent Moving Object Detection, and On-board Navigation. The refreshed range now consist of five models, with Nissanconnect 2.0 and NIM features as standard from the Acenta grade upwards. Prices for the latest Nissan Qashqai start from R358 100.
