The new Nissan Qashqai is the What Car? Car of the Year 2014.
It is the first time that Nissan has won the overall What Car? Car of the Year Award; the British-built Qashqai was also named best small SUV.
What Car? editor-in-chief Chas Hallett said: “The all-new Nissan Qashqai brings excellence and polish to a class of cars that is brimming with talent and tempting buys. The Qashqai delivers low costs and first-class levels of comfort, refinement, space and safety.
“Nissan has thought of every last detail, and this complete approach is why the Qashqai is What Car?’s Car of the Year. The Nissan team should be justifiably proud of their achievement.”
Nissan Motor GB managing director Jim Wright said: “We’re thrilled that What Car? has named the new Qashqai as its 2014 Car of the Year. A huge amount of effort has gone into the design and engineering of the new car, and we’re all extremely excited about creating the template for the second-generation crossover."

Interesting to see the Nissan X-Trail included
We had the previous Qashqai and it was great, we had a golf estate prior to that so for me it's good to see both cars included in the list.

Cheers Marv,
My bro lives in the states and has a Nissan X-terra. That's a good looking car too, a bit like a 'cut n shut' pathfinder.
