Qashqai’s new 1.3L petrol mild-hybrid powertrain features a lithium-ion battery which stores energy recovered during braking to reduce emissions whilst driving and gives smoother stop start functionality. That stored power lets the engine shut down at low speed (below 11 mph & automatic transmission only) or at a stop to enhance fuel efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions whilst driving. Aluminum has been used on the doors, bonnet & wings to reduce weight and improve performance. The mild hybrid powertrain is available with both 6-speed manual and automatic transmissions.

Available Transmissions
Take full control of your Qashqai with the slick shifting 6-speed manual transmission. If you prefer an automatic, Qashqai’s next-generation Xtronic Automatic Transmission gives you a smooth connected drive, while steering-wheel mounted paddle shifters let you enjoy greater control.
Intelligent 4WD with 5 Modes
Qashqai's Intelligent 4WD seamlessly transfers power to help give you greater confidence and control. On challenging surfaces, power to front and rear wheels improves grip. On smooth roads, the system sends power to the front wheels for higher efficiency. And with 5 drive modes to choose from, Qashqai can help you get the most out of any situation.
