Nissan Qashqai 2016
Carsguide Craig Jamieson had this to say at the time: If Nissan had only paid a little more time and attention to the interior materials and NVH isolation, the Qashqai could be at the forefront of its segment. But, because proper NVH isolation appears to elude Nissan (and so many other manufacturers), its small SUV has to make do with a mediocre finish.

Nissan Qashqai 2016 Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Nissan Qashqai 2016 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.
-
Should I buy a petrol or diesel car?
Diesels work at their best when they're running fully warmed-up and for long periods. If you aren't doing a reasonable amount of kilometres you can have trouble with the DPF system in the car, which can become clogged and require servicing to clear it. In your situation, doing very short trips to and from work each day I would buy the petrol variant.

Best SUV under $25k?
The Trax is good value for money and stacks up well against all comers in the class. The 1.4 turbo is the best engine, and it has a conventional auto instead of a CVT that most of its rivals have. Others to look at are the Suzuki S-Cross, Ford Kuga, Nissan Qashqai, Mazda CX-5 and Subaru XV.

Best trade in for a Territory TX?
I am reluctant to recommend any European car, particularly those from VW, because of the problems that have soured the ownership experience for so many people. Rather than those you name I would be looking at the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V or Suzuki Vitara.

Qashqai or XV for a small family?
It’s a tough call, the Qashqai gets the nod on price and for having a diesel engine option and better luggage capacity, the XV is all-wheel drive, but there’s no diesel. The Nissan by a nose.
