$8000 is quite a difference between the two. If one lives in the city and doing mostly city driving, the Kicks is the way to go. Larger cargo space, with rear seats up, and lower loading height. Also more fuel efficient and better outward visibility. If mostly highway driving, the ProPilot of Qashqai is nice to have, and if you need AWD. I went in the dealer looking at a Qashqai and walk out with a Kicks. Perfect for my needs.

[@carsunlocked]

That's awesome so glad you are happy. I definitely agree with your statement but still enjoy the Qashqai drive

[@michellehoochandcricket1233]

I have a 2018 kicks and I love it I wont give it up for no other car and my dogs love my kicks to 😉

[@carsunlocked]

That's awesome I love dogs there's lots of room in the kicks

2020 qashqai looks really good

[@carsunlocked]

Where did u see that

[@MorethanGUNZ]

Very informative video. Super helpful

[@carsunlocked]

Hey glad I could help thanks so much

[@F0RDMU5TANGB0I_06]

I really like the Qashqai! I think it would be my very first car that I would drive since I’m thinking of driving soon! ^w^ 😊

[@carsunlocked]

great choice super exciting time for you

[@UKUSALadyMeatHeals]

My Mum has a Qashqai in England, a bit of a gas guzzler at UK PETROL priced. Love driving it, but it's had a lot of problems. I have Kicks at the moment because my car is in the body shop. Love driving it. Agree about the air vents. Also, I don't see the eco boost data until I turn the engine off. My Kia I see in real time.

[@carsunlocked]

ohhh thats interesting you might have to customize your nissan drive assist display to display the eco screen

[@housesing]

I have a 2019 qashqai the same green. I love it!

[@carsunlocked]

Phenomenal congratulations on your new Qashqai

[@MrKing-hv3ep]

I bought kicks sv in black. And man am I regretting not buying sr variant in white and black!!!!!

[@carsunlocked]

the colors awesome either way but the two tone roofs are phenomenal

[@jazzy_jocelyn78]

I love my qashqai 2019 👍😍smooth to drive,perfect size for me.

[@carsunlocked]

Hey so glad you like it ...

[@gflow8357]

I think the Kicks is a great car but between these two the Rogue Sport hands down...

[@carsunlocked]

great choice my man thanks for the comments

[@Sadxq]

I have a 2017 kicks and I’ve bought an aftermarket centre console for it however, now the only thing that bothers me is that there are no air vents at the back and it can be very frustrating for passengers when the temperature reaches 45°C in summer.

[@carsunlocked]

Thanks for your comments and I can see why it would get hot. Gotta get the Qashqai to get those vents

[@jerryjose6443]

Mate, I’m planning to buy a used 2019 quashqai in Canada. But not sure of its reliability after 100k km. Is it a good fit till 200k or 250k km? Could you respond at the earliest

[@carsunlocked]

yes it certainly is if you properly maintain it

[@CarolineBoyce]

I'm i the market and your video helped me decide; thanks ... qashqai for my liking . Thanks

[@carsunlocked]

love to here that thank you

[@sandraarsenault3085]

Great comparison. But which car would u choose now in 2022 the Qushqui or Kicks and why can't we get the rrsdesigned Qashqai in Canada when you can buy it in the USA. Tks need an answer soon as I am buying one or the other. Appreciate your help. Sandra

[@carsunlocked]

thanks sandra everything is delayed in canada due to pandemic and microchip shortage. The production of automobiles ia very fall behind. I would by the qashqai

[@robreilly9587]

Love the Nissan Kicks! Great comparison video!

[@carsunlocked]

Well thanks Rob

[@jsilverchannel]

I have a Qashqai. I think the Kicks actually has a slightly larger cargo area

[@carsunlocked]

It does when ur using the rear seats

[@randymccammon6011]

Of all Nissan and Toyota vehicles offered in your opinion what is the ultimate choice? I’m happy with the 2020 Nissan Kicks I own, but acceleration is tepid.

[@carsunlocked]

I have been driving the Nissan Rogue 2021 for quite some time and are very happy with it

[@oi32df]

And bonus you can get the Qashqai with a manual transmission .

[@carsunlocked]

got that right

[@nonymozah9715]

Hi everyone I'm confuse with the front light I don't know which one to use in the night white one or the Orange one. And where can I use the white light and when can I use the orange light if I can get help with that that I'll be wonderful.

The Kicks would be a nice 2nd vehicle and it's narrower so making parking in urban areas much easier ....

[@carsunlocked]

Awesome thanks so much for you feedback

[@123marciav]

for a very first car which one would you recommend the most? unless its better to see them in person!

[@carsunlocked]

At the end of the video I recommend the qashqai... It's a lot better drive. If you want to see them personally I would be more than happy to show you

[@charlottewells4313]

I love my Kicks

[@carsunlocked]

thanks for commenting

[@kellymillar28]

Is the Kicks a good car on the highway? I'm a single mom with one kid but drive on the highway a lot. Would love a moon roof but not necessary. Which one should I lean towards?

[@carsunlocked]

the kicks you do not get a moon roof. I prefer the qashqai on the high way.

[@Meeshrick]

What is the difference between the Qushqai and the Nissan Rogue sport?

[@carsunlocked]

They are the same Nissan rogue sport is what they call a Qashqai in the US

Was wondering about rear cupholder in the Kicks. Doesn't seem to have a centre armrest with cup holders. Are there any in the doors?

[@carsunlocked]

Yea there's one in each door

[@jeffreywilson8921]

Great! Appreciate the update. Have a good one!

[@kenicke579]

So is the Nissan kicks an suv? It looks pretty small

[@carsunlocked]

Consider a Cross over

[@kofiboakye7666]

Yeah it's a compact suv

[@Jnaathra]

The stuff I read online seems to indicate that both vehicles have anti gravity seats. Is that accurate?

[@carsunlocked]

That's correct zero gravity

[@BoomboxMike1]

Question, Does the manual transmission Nissan Qashqai comes with all wheel drive or front wheel drive?

[@carsunlocked]

Gonna be front wheel drive

What do you mean

[@carsunlocked]

Both these cars are practically brand new

[@IWeasel]

In case you miss the memo these are both new entries into Nissan’s line up the green suv is known to me as the Rogue Sport which has nothing at all to do with the our going models it stands alone including the engine is new the only thing it shares is the interior nothing more.

Qashqai still has a CD player I think.

[@thatredmanguy]

The only reason why the Qashqai is called the Rogue Sport in the States is because Americans can't pronounce an Iranian name like "Qashqai." Can't blame 'em. Besides, the Qashqai looks like a mini Rogue/Xterra, hence the name "Rogue Sport."
