qashqai hybrid australia

Yes, Australia gets the Nissan Qashqai e-POWER hybrid, and it’s the sensible one in a smart suit.

It uses a 1.5‑litre turbo three‑cylinder as a generator and drives the wheels with an electric motor, so you get EV-like smoothness without plugging in.

Key figures: 140 kW and 330 Nm to the front wheels, and about 5–5.5 L/100 km on the combined cycle.

It’s mostly sold as the Ti e-POWER, priced roughly $51k–$55k before on-roads, depending on options and model year.

No charging cables, just petrol in, electrons out, and a surprisingly quiet commute. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
