Nissan Qashqai 1.5dCi Pure Drive (2011) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 11 May 2011 07:00

This is the Nissan Qashqai Pure Drive. Pure Drive is a badge you won’t see on the back of GT-R, because it’s reserved for Nissan’s most environmentally friendly models (bar the Leaf EV). Changes in 2010 ushered in a sharper look for Nissan’s popular urban soft-roader, and now a series of MY11 updates includes a more powerful diesel engine, and ...

Nissan Murano 2.5 D (2010) new CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Tim Pollard, 15 July 2010 13:44

Nissan's Murano lives in a bit of a time warp; it's only just got its first diesel engine. Yep, you read that right. This full-ish sized premium SUV has been operating in just 0.6% of the derv-crazy crossover segment with a spanking great big 3.5-litre petrol-slurper.Now the new 2.5-litre diesel has arrived, it's suddenly opened up 86% of the segment, ...

Nissan Juke 1.6 DiG-T (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Tim Pollard, 08 July 2010 00:54

Fret not! You might have spied the £20k price tag on this Nissan Juke first drive review, but rest assured: we've climbed into the top dog, turbocharged and 4x4 Juke aimed at Mini Cooper S territory. We've driven cheaper models in the range too (the Nissan Juke starts at a much more palatable £12,795), but the tech on the 1.6 ...

Nissan Qashqai+2 1.5dCi (2009) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

Glen Waddington, 22 January 2009 10:00

Live for the unexpected. That’s Nissan’s slogan for the Qashqai. And what you might not expect is a 1.5-litre diesel engine where the 2.0-litre normally lives. This is a big car – the +2 is 211mm longer than the standard Qashqai and weighs 1604kg – so the newly introduced small engine might not be your first choice. Question is, should ...

Nissan Murano (2009 European version) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 01 September 2008 10:00

A new Nissan Murano? I can barely remember the old one… That’s probably because, despite selling over 241,000 units in America since its launch in 2004, the poor Murano managed barely 55,000 sales throughout Europe over the same period. Clearly, Nissan has equally low hopes for European success with the next-generation Murano, anticipating a ludicrously modest 450 sales for this ...

Nissan Qashqai+2 2.0 (2008) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

David Motton, 28 August 2008 12:38

Don't let Nissan catch you calling the new Qashqai+2 an MPV. Like its jacked-up hatchback little brother, this is one of Nissan’s growing family of ‘crossover’ vehicles – mainstream cars with a pinch of 4x4 here and a hint of people carrier there. Just think of it as a Qashqai hatch but with a couple of extra seats. It’s a ...

Nissan Pathfinder 2.5 dCi Aventura (2008) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Matthew Jones, 14 May 2008 11:10

Remember Nissan’s TV advert where the Pathfinder sent people screaming for cover as it chugged through an Amercian city? That’s because this pick-up is a gigantic brute of a car, a proper workhorse, a ‘car’ that’s not afraid to roll up its sleeves and get dirty. And because Nissan knows that it can’t match the green oval kudos of Land ...

Nissan Murano (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Kyle Fortune, 15 April 2008 09:18

Nissan’s Murano is an odd thing. Since late 2004 only around 1000 of them have made it to the UK each year, but for all its scarcity it was something you wouldn't forget when you did see one. A big showy chrome grille and a lusty V6 engine borrowed from the 350Z meant the Murano was never going to appeal ...

Nissan X-Trail 2.0 dCi (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Daniel Harrison, 24 May 2007 08:12

Is Nissan pulling a fast one? This looks the same as the old X-Trail It’s a dead ringer for the one that's just been discontinued, isn’t it? Incredibly, it’s totally new, right down to the engines. Two new 2.0-litre diesels (150 and 173bhp, both lifted from the Renault Laguna) replace the old dCi unit, while the 2.0-litre petrol and underpinnings ...
