Nissan Juke Nismo (2013) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ollie Kew, 20 May 2013 12:00

Nissan’s first Nismo-badged car to be sold in Europe is this hotted-up Juke crossover. Sporting an aggressive aero bodykit and sporty cabin touches, chassis revisions and a dollop more power, the Nismo (short for Nissan Motorsport) is an offbeat £20k alternative to regular hot hatches like the Renaultsport Clio 200 Turbo and Peugeot 208 GTi. So this isn’t really a Juke-R ...

Nissan Qashqai 360 (2013) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ollie Kew, 07 May 2013 13:50

Nissan has updated its Qashqai crossover for 2013. On the new ‘360’ trim level which replaces the mid-range Ntec+ trim, the headline news is a 360-degree view parking camera. It’s a familiar car now, but does its age mean the Qashqai has dropped off the pace? CAR tested the 1.6dCi version to find out. Isn’t the Qashqai getting a bit ...

Nissan GT-R Track Pack (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 24 May 2012 08:59

This is the Nissan GT-R Track Pack, a stripped-down, pumped-up Japanese coupe with designs on the 911 GT3. A GT-R GT3? Isn’t what the Spec V was all about. The GT-R Spec V was certainly the hardcore GT-R, but it was also obscenely expensive – double the price of the standard car. The Track Pack only costs around £10k extra but still ...

Nissan Leaf EV (2011) long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 14 March 2012 10:30

Two sides to our Leaf – 14 March 2012 At once the Leaf is both soothing and stressful. Climb in, press the start button, and besides the dashboard lighting up to the accompaniment of a few bongs, you’d never know it was running. After any other car, the complete lack of vibrations is wonderful, so you glide along in relaxed comfort. You’re a little ...

Nissan GT-R (2012) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Jethro Bovingdon, 07 November 2011 12:20

Can you spot the difference? No? Come on, look really closely. In fact don’t bother, because although this is a thoroughly revised 2012 model year Nissan GT-R, it looks absolutely identical to the 2011 model. So the Nissan GT-R is still huge and brutal and indisputably Japanese. And now it’s even faster, even more capable and even more entertaining. Nissan ...

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 Micra 1.2 Acenta (2011) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 05 May 2011 13:10

This is the new Nissan Micra, but it’s not the first time we’ve tested it. This is in fact our third exposure to Nissan’s new Micra: after testing a Thai-spec car in Thailand, and an almost-finished prototype on a test track in Japan, we’ve finally driven a UK car on UK roads. The Micra’s no longer a UK-built car though ...

Nissan Leaf electric car (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Mark Hamilton, 31 March 2011 12:41

CAR's Gavin Green drove a pre-production Nissan Leaf in Japan last year and came away impressed. So did European Car of the Year judges, who awarded the Nissan Leaf the COTY award for 2011. The Leaf continues to garner accolades in the media and positive reports from all who drive it. But we haven't had a chance to try the Leaf on ...

Nissan GT-R (2011) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 15 March 2011 10:30

When the R35-spec Nissan GT-R first appeared in 2007 it stunned the automotive world, notching up easy victories against the likes of the Porsche 911 Turbo in comparison tests, and posting incredible Nurburgring lap times. Now Nissan claims it has 'enhanced' the GT-R for 2011, so just how much better has it become? Read on for CAR's review of the new Nissan GT-R. What's changed ...

Nissan 370Z Roadster (2010) long-term test

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Phil McNamara, 14 October 2010 09:08

Why the 370Z needs to be driven hard – 14 October 2010 With 326bhp available under your right plimsoll, the Z roadster is hardly a car for the meek and mild. But if you were ever in any doubt, the short throw, notchy gearbox screams at you to treat it keenly.  After five minutes driving it, the Roadster made a ...
