Nissan QASHQAI e-POWER driven for 2025

Let’s talk about the 2025 Nissan QASHQAI e-POWER—Nissan’s answer to the compact crossover that’s practical, modern, and… pretty well thought-out.    

It’s got the kind of style that says, I’m cool, but I don’t need to prove it, and that’s something we can all appreciate.

The exterior is sleek, with clean lines and a grille that says, I know what I’m doing. Inside, it’s comfortable, with a decent 9-inch touchscreen, but here’s the thing—you don’t need to become best friends with your smartphone to use it. Nissans smartly included actual physical buttons for things like climate control, volume, and tuning. In the world of endless touchscreens, it’s refreshing to feel a button under your fingers. Call it a throwback to a time when you didn’t have to swipe and tap your way through every function. You know, when the car just… worked.

Performance-wise, the QASHQAI e-POWER is solid. The 190 horsepower hybrid system won’t break any speed records, but it’ll certainly get you where you need to go. It’s smooth around town and efficient, with a fuel consumption of about 5.6 litres per 100 kilometres. You won’t have to think twice about refuelling every time you hit the road.

As for features, it’s got the usual suspects—adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist—but also adds semi-autonomous driving mode for when you just want to let go of the wheel (metaphorically, of course). It’s a handy feature for the daily grind, but don’t expect it to take over your life just yet.

So, is the QASHQAI e-POWER game-changing? Not really. But it’s the kind of car that makes sense. Practical, easy to live with, and yes, you can actually use the buttons while driving—no need for an engineering degree.
