Are the three major components of the Nissan Qashqai and Venucia T70 the same?

The three major components of the Nissan Qashqai and Venucia T70 are the same. They share the same engine and transmission. Below is a detailed introduction about car engines: Overview: A car engine is the device that provides power to a vehicle, determining its power performance, fuel economy, stability, and environmental friendliness. Depending on the power source, car engines can be classified into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid engines, among others. Others: Common gasoline and diesel engines are both reciprocating piston internal combustion engines, capable of converting the chemical energy of fuel into the mechanical energy of piston movement and outputting power. Gasoline engines have high rotational speeds, are lightweight, produce less noise, are easy to start, and have low manufacturing costs. Diesel engines have a high compression ratio, excellent thermal efficiency, and better fuel economy and emission performance compared to gasoline engines.
The three major components of the Nissan Qashqai and Venucia T70 indeed share a common origin. The early Venucia T70 directly adopted the same MR20 engine and CVT transmission as the Qashqai, even replicating the Qashqai's old platform for its chassis structure, which is why some people refer to them as rebadged cars. However, the tuning styles of these two vehicles are entirely different. The Qashqai's chassis is more taut, handling speed bumps with a firm 'thud-thud,' while the T70 feels soft, as if driving on cotton. The current Qashqai has long been upgraded to the CMF platform, with all three major components thoroughly updated, whereas the new T70 still relies on that old system, resulting in significantly worse fuel efficiency. If you ask me, buying a used older model for affordability might make the T70 an option, but the driving feel of the new Qashqai absolutely dominates.
