2010 Nissan Qashqai UK Pricing Unveiled

The 2010 Nissan Qashqai is still an enigma for most of us, as the Japanese manufacturer released only a bunch of photos showing the facelifted model but pricing is already available for the United Kingdom. According to the guys over at Carscoop, the facelifted Qashqai will go on sale in the UK in March 2010, with pricing starting from £15,395 ($25,300) for the base version and £16,695 ($27,500) for the seven-seater Qashqai +2.

Just as we told you last week, the car comes equipped with several new features, including revised front fascia, with new headlights and front bumper, as well as with new LED taillamps. Overall, the car is a bit more aerodynamic and features an upgraded suspension system for increased comfort.

Basically, the engine lineup remains unchanged, with a single exception: the addition of a new 1.5-liter dCi engine, available exclusively on the Pure Drive version.

ESP is standard across the entire range, just like the European regulations demand, while the Acenta trim adds a Speed Limiter. The Tekna version also includes a Bose audio system.

The current Qashqai series is offered with a total of four engine configurations, two diesels and two petrols. The top-of-the-range unit is the 2.0-liter dCi that develops a maximum output of 150 horsepower at 4,000 rpm and 320 Nm of torque at 2,000 rpm. It propels the Qashqai from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.5 seconds and helps it achieve a top speed of 119 mph (192 km/h). Fuel consumption is 27.3 mpg (8.6 L/100Km) city and 42.8 mpg (5.5 L/100Km) highway.
