Nissan has decided to forgo any diesel offer for its new Qashqai. The Japanese manufacturer will offer unprecedented technology in Europe and Italy in 2022. Called e-Power, it is based on a powerful electric motor, supported by a 3-cylinder petrol engine. And it is precisely this reason why it could turn out to be the SUV of the year.
In this e-Power technology, the battery acts as a buffer between the petrol unit and the electric motor which develops 140 kW (or 190 HP). Thus, the 1.5L 3-cylinder with variable compression ratio runs at speeds depending on the road traveled. We remind you that the CVT gearbox remains one of the most efficient transmissions, as it is stably on the most suitable transmission ratio according to the driving phases.
Nissan has chosen a relatively high heat output (157 hp) for the Qashqai 2022, so that it can be used on long journeys. This leads to consumption, which Nissan estimates, in the combined cycle, at 5.3 liters per 100 kilometers or 122 grams of CO2 per kilometer. Which puts it on par with a 140hp Qashqai II 1.3 DIG-T BVM6.
