Fourteen years after creating the crossover segment, we are confident that this model will be a game changer. This pioneering model will be in South and Sub-Saharan Africa in the latter part of the 2021 Financial Year for both regions, respectively, and we are looking forward to a completely renewed design inside and out, innovative technologies and electrified power on our roads,\u201d said Stefan Haasbroek, Nissan South Africa Marketing Director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The central screen is a 9\u201d TFT screen which houses Nissan\u2019s upgraded infotainment system, while an additional 12\u201d TFT configurable screen sits in front of the driver, replacing the traditional dials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To complement the high definition TFT screen, the driver will also benefit from a 10.8-inch Head-Up Display (HUD), the largest in the segment, offering speed, navigation directions and road information directly in the driver\u2019s line-of-sight. Taking into account the two screens, and the head-up display \u2013 the driver has easy and convenient access to key information while driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional convenience comes in the form of a wireless charging pad, allowing occupants to easily charge their smartphones. At 15w, the wireless charging unit is among the most powerful in the segment. And while the smartphone is charging wirelessly, suitably equipped iPhones can connect to the Qashqai via wireless Apple CarPlay\u00ae, allowing seamless usage of many of the phone\u2019s apps. Additional connectivity is available for all occupants, with a total of 4 USB charging ports, with 2 USB-A and 2 USB-C ports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot of the technological updates on the new Qashqai work quietly in the background, acting as an extra pair of eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Premiere Edition Qashqai will be available with the newly upgraded ProPILOT with Navi-link, which brings greater driver support in a wider array of circumstances, for peace of mind in all driving scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At night, the driver will appreciate the LED matrix headlights that are equipped with advanced driving beam technology. The headlights emit a strong, bright beam with a large range, giving excellent visibility. When an approaching vehicle is detected, the beam effectively changes shape to have the effect of putting the oncoming vehicle in a shadow, so the driver isn\u2019t dazzled, but the rest of the road remains clearly illuminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Two tone colours<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The styling has always been at the heart of the success of the Qashqai, and the appeal of the Qashqai Premiere Edition has been elevated thanks to the introduction of a palette of two-tone colour options for a more personalised choice. The following body colours are available with a striking black roof: new blue, pearl grey and pearl white, while the black body colour is available with a grey roof. The Premiere Edition also features neatly integrated roof rails, which are finished in a matt silver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional aesthetic appeal comes in the form of new 18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, which complement the new Qashqai\u2019s stance, which is more purposeful thanks to the longer wheelbase and sharp shoulder lines over the wheels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Life-on-board is given an airy feel thanks to the panoramic roof, with a powered sliding blind to protect occupants on hot and sunny days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The interior follows a classic format, with black cloth trim, black dashboard and centre console, which combine to give the interior an air of refinement and pedigree, while a grey roof trim prevents the overall ambience from being oppressive. The grey roof lining also reinforces the additional interior head, knee and shoulder space that has been generated thanks to the longer wheelbase and smart packaging of the CMF-C platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Efficient mild hybrid technology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Qashqai Premiere Edition is powered by a highly evolved iteration of the 1.3-litre turbocharged petrol engine found on the current Qashqai. However, Nissan\u2019s engineers have developed it to include mild hybrid technology which enhances its efficiency. Thanks to the addition of a secondary Lithium-ion battery system, the new Qashqai offers extended idle stop, quicker restart and coasting stop (automatic only).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The system will even boost torque under acceleration, offering an additional 6Nm for up to 20 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 1.3-litre engine in the Premiere Edition is available in two configurations: 138hp with six-speed manual gearbox, or 156hp coupled with Nissan\u2019s advanced Xtronic gearbox, which is operated via the new, convenient gear selector on the centre console. Additionally, manual control of the Xtronic can be managed via paddles behind the steering wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>To give customers of the all-new Qashqai the chance to embrace and enjoy its combination of striking design, convenient and intuitive technology with dynamic, efficient performance, the Premiere Edition Qashqai is a compelling package. Those first customers of the new Qashqai will be turning heads wherever they drive the new Premiere Edition model and we are confident it will more than live up to their expectations,<\/em>\u201d said Arnaud Charpentier, Vice President, Product Marketing, Nissan Automotive Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE CURRENT QASHQAI<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nissan.co.za\/\">https:\/\/nissan.co.za\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LIMITED EDITION VERSION FOR FIRST QASHQAI CUSTOMERS A special launch version to showcase Nissan\u2019s innovative and convenient technology An extended palette of two-tone colour options and even more convenience features ROSSLYN, South Africa, 18 February 2021 &#8211; The order books open today in Europe on the all-new Nissan Qashqai, the third generation of the pioneering &#8230; <a title=\"ALL-NEW NISSAN QASHQAI PREMIERE EDITION\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/all-new-nissan-qashqai-premiere-edition\/\" aria-label=\"More on ALL-NEW NISSAN QASHQAI PREMIERE EDITION\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7673,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[89],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7672"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7672"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7672\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7673"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autocity.dev.webeng.co\/nissan-site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
