The NISSAN QASHQAI+2 (2009-10) 5DR SUV 4WD 2.0 ACENTA is a family-sized compact SUV, adding a longer body and occasional third-row seating to the popular Qashqai. It sits between ordinary hatchbacks and larger, pricier off-roaders in the UK used-car market, offering a raised driving position and extra flexibility without feeling enormous. With seven-seat flexibility, it suits growing families, school runs and weekend trips, while the 2.0-litre engine and four-wheel drive bring reassuring grip in poor conditions. Acenta versions offer a practical, comfortable approach rather than luxury-car polish. Compared with rivals such as the Ford Kuga, this Qashqai+2 stands out for its extra seats and approachable, car-like manners; the trade-off is higher fuel use than a smaller two-wheel-drive crossover.
