2 Answers
Nissan Qashqai 1.2T CVT Fashion Edition has a minimum ground clearance of 193mm, while the manual Fashion Edition has a minimum ground clearance of 199mm. The exterior of the Nissan Qashqai adopts Nissan's new V-Motion design language, featuring a new-style V-shaped grille at the front with chrome accents, and redesigned slim headlights on both sides with internal lenses. The Nissan Qashqai is positioned as a compact SUV, with dimensions of 4401mm in length, 1837mm in width, and 1611mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2646mm. The interior of the Nissan Qashqai showcases a distinct Nissan family style, with a dashboard and center console very similar to the Nissan X-Trail. The two-tone color scheme enhances the dynamic feel of the interior, while the steering wheel, instrument panel, and center console are adorned with silver trim for a simple yet stylish look.
I remember when I first drove the Nissan Qashqai, I was wondering about its ground clearance, since I'm the kind of commuter who often drives urban SUVs. The Qashqai's minimum ground clearance is about 18 cm, which isn't the highest among SUVs but is significantly taller than regular sedans, making it very stable on Beijing's bumpy streets. When encountering speed bumps or waterlogged roads during rainy days, I don’t need to slow down too much—the chassis easily clears them, saving me a lot of time. The Qashqai’s suspension system complements this design, minimizing body roll during turns, and overall handling is quite good. I’ve even chatted with friends about how this car suits someone like me—an office worker who occasionally goes on suburban trips—without constantly worrying about scraping the undercarriage. Of course, regular checks on the tires and suspension can extend the chassis’ lifespan and prevent excessive wear. Overall, the 18 cm height is a well-balanced design, practical without sacrificing comfort.
