2024 Nissan Qashqai e-Power | POV TEST DRIVE

Nissan Qashqai e-Power Test Drive: Is the Battery Dying or Are We Flying?
Hey there, folks! Today, we’re taking a spin in the Nissan Qashqai e-Power, and trust me, this is no ordinary hybrid. It’s got a unique setup where the 1.5L 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine doesn’t directly power the wheels-it just charges the battery! Yep, it’s like having a personal power bank under the hood. The result? A smooth, all-electric drive experience with none of that "range anxiety" you get from full EVs. With 188 horsepower and 330 Nm of torque, this thing moves, but silently-like a ninja in a family SUV suit.
We’ll find out if this whole system is worth the hype. With a 0-100 km/h sprint in around 7.9 seconds, we’ll see if that acceleration is as sharp as it sounds. Spoiler: it feels like the engine is just chilling under the hood, waiting to charge up your ride like a laid-back superhero.
The interior? Oh, it’s comfy, like a cozy Wi-Fi-equipped living room with hot tea. There’s plenty of space for you, your passengers, and that giant infotainment screen (12.3 inches!) that’s basically a Netflix binge machine on wheels. You’ve also got a 10.8-inch heads-up display that’ll make you feel like you’re piloting a spaceship. And the trunk? 479 liters of storage-perfect for weekend shopping hauls or mini getaways when you decide to pack half your wardrobe.
How does the Qashqai handle city streets and highways? With its e-Pedal mode, you can almost drive it with one foot! And that combined fuel economy of around 5.3L/100 km? Let’s see if it really lives up to that claim. Join me in this POV video-just you, me, and this quiet but mighty ride. Buckle up!

I’ve test driven this car,Tekna+ multilink, and it was very silent and quiet. I know your test roads looks completely broken, but at the minute 6 seems noisy. Is it due to road pavement?
