Nissan Qashqai is Ireland’s top selling 181 new car

The Nissan Qashqai was Ireland’s best-selling car for the 181 sales period with the 3,045 new buyers who made it their car of choice, also cementing its position as the undisputed leader of its segment.

The result also reaffirms the Nissan Qashqai’s status as Ireland’s best-selling crossover of all time with over 50,000 units sold since its launch just over 10 years ago.

The choice of petrol engines that is available across the entire Qashqai range is driving demand for the car with Nissan reporting a massive 63 percent year-on-year increase in new Qashqai petrol car sales as the trend of drivers switching back to petrol continues apace.

Demand for the car is also been driven by the significant premium enhancements introduced to the new upgraded Qashqai in 2017 and by Nissan’s ‘Intelligent Mobility’ features which are changing the way people interact with their cars.

The upgrades, which focus on exterior design, interior quality, driving performance and New Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies, helped Nissan to a 3.49 percent share of the new car market up to the end of June.

A key factor in Nissan’s success has been the introduction of its autonomous drive technology ‘ProPilot’ in the new Qashqai, giving customers new levels of driving flexibility and greater freedom when they want it.

Nissan’s Intelligent Mobility technologies such as ‘Intelligent Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection’, ‘Intelligent Park Assist with Rear Cross Traffic Alert’ and ‘Still Assist’ have also attracted new buyers.

“We are delighted that the Nissan Qashqai continues to be the undisputed leader in its segment. Nissan’s Intelligent Driving Systems have taken the driving experience to the next level, acting like a partner to give drivers a whole new level of confidence,” said James McCarthy, CEO, Nissan Ireland.

As the car industry shifts its focus to the 182 sales period Nissan is giving new car buyers and those thinking of buying a new Qashqai the opportunity to save money by buying two cars together as part of its Car Combo offer.

The Nissan Car Combo offer is geared towards families, presenting them with a limited opportunity to buy two brand new cars from as little as €341 per month through PCP, or to save as much as €11,800 if they decide to do a cash deal.

To avail of the offer customers must buy two new 182 Nissan passenger car models and both new cars need to be registered in the same family name and address between July 1st and up to July 31st when the offer ends.

Customers must choose a new Nissan Qashqai or X-Trail as their first car and they can choose from a New Micra, Juke, Pulsar or Qashqai for their second car to create what Nissan calls their ideal car combo.

Nissan Ireland says that PCP customers combining a new Qashqai 1.2XE and Micra 1.0XE as part of the Nissan Car Combo offer can buy both cars for €340.38 per month, based on 6.9 percent APR and a 30 percent deposit. The cost of the two new cars is just €54 more than the €290 cost per month of buying one Qashqai 1.2XE under the same PCP terms.
