Are the Three Major Components of the Nissan Qashqai Imported?
2 Answers
The three major components of the Nissan Qashqai are not imported; they are assembled and produced domestically using imported parts. In terms of appearance, the design of this car is relatively moderate, with some changes implemented in the details, which also to some extent highlight the sporty temperament of this car, making it more in line with the aesthetic views of young consumers. The car has dimensions of 4401mm in length, 1837mm in width, and 1593mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2646mm. It is a 5-door, 5-seat SUV, equipped with a CVT continuously variable transmission (simulating 7 gears) and a 2.0L L4 engine.
That day I went for a test drive of the Qashqai, and the sales consultant gave a detailed introduction about the three major components. He said the engine is Nissan's classic HR series, with core parts imported from Japan and assembled in Chinese factories. The CVT transmission follows a similar approach—imported components with local production. As for the chassis, it's entirely domestically produced. As a Qashqai owner for three years, I find the car quite reliable, with stable quality in the three major components and convenient maintenance, especially since Dongfeng Nissan produces it domestically in China. Many people worry about import issues, but the high localization rate saves on tariff costs, making the price more affordable. I haven’t encountered any issues in daily driving, and the fuel consumption is low, making it ideal for city commuting. In short, it's not entirely imported but blends local elements, yet you can use it with confidence within the warranty period.
