Our verdict
August 2023: The result of this car been updated. Previously reported Ammonia (NH3) values were incorrect owing to a technical error with the equipment at the test laboratory and a correction has been applied.
Tested here is the Nissan Qashqai, equipped with the 1.3 litre turbocharged petrol engine. The car demonstrates a well-functioning pollutant control system, albeit with the with potential to improve. The good laboratory result can also be easily reproduced on the street, significantly lowering the impact of combustion engine vehicles on air quality. Like other SUVs, the Qashqai struggles with increased fuel consumption during dynamic highway driving and higher speeds. With 6.7 l/100 km in the real world On-Road test, however, the number is a relatively good value for a petrol SUV. Closely related to the fuel demand are also the greenhouse gas emissions, which don't help the Qashqai reach more than 2½ Green stars with an Weighted Overall Index of 4.4.
