1000km of EV range?! Nissan Qashqai hybrid 2024 review: Ti e-Power HEV review
HTML-код

- Forget range anxiety. If you want a car that drives like an EV, but isn't one, this could be right for you!
That's because the Nissan Qashqai e-Power is a different kind of hybrid, or HEV (hybrid electric vehicle).
It uses a petrol engine only as a generator -- in essence as a series hybrid -- so your drive experience is similar to an electric car, with seamless acceleration and big effect from the regenerative brakes, too.
The downside? It's not very efficient. The numbers in this video might surprise you in terms of the efficiency, but here are some of the best alternatives you might want to take a look at, if you're into the idea of a hybrid SUV like this:

Hi everyone. I had some information incorrect in this video. It was relating to the battery system having a longer warranty than the car. Turns out it doesn't! So, the car and the electric components all have a five-year/unlimited km warranty plan.
I have cut the mistake out of the video (in the Ownership section) and apologise for this boo-boo!!
I took an e-power then a 1.3T Qashqai for a 6km test drive through urban back streets and replicated the same acceleration in both tests. The 1.3T consumption was 11.2L/100km and the e-power was 5.4L/100km. So in my opinion if you’re going to be using this car for urban and city driving, the e-power is definitely worth it for not only fuel saving, but for the smooth driving experience and extra power too.
Exactly. Economy will drop at higher speed motorway trips, but if those types of journeys only make up 10% or less of your regular journeys then it'll be offset by the lower city consumption anyway
Nissan originally promised a lower-spec version of the e-Power Qashqai - an ST-L variant. Nissan released such a variant for the e-Power X-Trail about 12 months after the Ti and Ti-L, so my thinking is that perhaps later this year they will do the same with the Qashqai. Although $4,000 is a jump from the Ti non-hybrid version, it gets you away from the CVT auto, and provides a satisfying, linear form of acceleration. Worth it in my view.
Price hikes, looks like Nissan australia CEO has finally spoken to Coles CEO.
This is exciting
The Qashqai E Power was $65k NZD when listed on the Nissan NZ website. That puts it into the territory of Lexus UX and LBX.
One thing I will give this Quasqai is the boot space, its class leading but apart from that with the price you really have to ask yourself if youre going to use that much petrol to justify the price over the non hybrid(and lack of a spare), if you crunch the numbers, probably not. As an alternate I would probably take the Jolion hybrid, its a a more affordable option at 40k with all the bells and whistles but the boot is really short on height because of the hybrid system. This again begs the question, do you really need a hybrid to save on fuel?
Yeah, no. Not for me, love your honest reviews. As I watch each you post. You are now my version of the wheel’s magazines and the like that I previously subscribe to. 👍😎🇦🇺
Thanks very much!! Glad you enjoyed it, and plenty more to come!
Matt please review Lexus LBX
Can you confirm that the battery warranty is 8-years/160,000km? As i was told yesterday it was only 5-years (same warranty as the car)…
I have just heard back - the info I found wasn't right! So, yes, the battery warranty is 5 years, just like the car. Sorry for misleading.
After about 44000km this version is better than petrol
4000 / 1.8per1liter / 5.1lper100km × 100km
So better buy this than fully petrol
Where are you commenting from?
Great review, … troubling word in this review was COMPLICATED SYSTEM..! That little battery has a lot of use and it’s not a Toyota .. nah!
I .think all EV is better as petrol fluctuates between low and high prices.Australia needs more EV charging stations and better longer lasting batteries
Great review, Matt 3 negatives with this car. 1 it's a Nissan 2. No spare 3. Too expensive. I recently drove a Corolla hybrid. Toyota has nailed hybrid technology. But as i wouldn't wait 12 plus months for a Rav 4. I would buy a Haval H6 Hybrid and hope i don't get a puncture. 😊
Ha! Haval over a Nissan, good luck with that decision. Hahahahaha...... Aaaahahahahahahaha!!!!

Just shows how much you don't know about Nissan's .
@@buncha5651I've owned a 350z from new since 2006 and never have I ever had an issue. Family members own Qashqai's nearing 8 years old and just like my car, run like new. I'm well versed how good Nissans are. Good luck with your Chinese car, you'll need it in 10 years.
Cashcow!
If it was $5-8K less might be interesting.
All the alternatives you recommended are not really alternatives because in e-power there is no mechanical connection between the internal combustion engine and the driven wheels. So there is no gearbox like the others. 😉 Apples and pears. 😊
Yeah and no-one else is really doing it like Nissan. So, hybrids are hybrids are hybrids to the lay person, and so my alternatives fit the mindset of the real buyer.
@@therightcar I understand you, but this was a primary consideration for me (no gearbox, fully EV driving experience) when I bought my qashqai e-power. :) I haven't regretted it since. :)
Not very fuel efficient considering the engine only powers the generator for the battery and doesn't have the load of hauling the weight of the vehicle through the transmission. Just seems like they wanted to stand out from the pack but failed.
🤔 nup.
Look…
See? 😝
It's complicated, overweight, and expensive. Be rational and buy something that makes sense.
Good luck Nissan with your plug-in hybrid that doesn't plug-in.
Strong take.
What an absolute waste of money and resources to have a petrol engine run a generator and all the gubbins of inverters to batteries. Nissan trying to bypass the second law of thermodynamics.
It works for trains and submarines.
@@mvnorsel6354 it doesn't for cars
So why does it have lower fuel consumption than petrol-only? You are ignoring energy recouped through regen braking, otherwise lost to friction.
Yes, neither your armpit nor your asshole the Toyota hybrids have it right.
@@Raturidesagain mate have a good look at how stuff at our levels happens .. don't reckon you're a uber smart thinking person.
Issues - you get a lot more for same/similar dollars with an X-trail inc 4WD option. The efficiency isn't there for $4200 premium, plus it needs premium fuel. There should be a much smaller premium for hybrid - at the least no more than what Toyota charge. Toyota fixed price servicing is also less.
