Car reviews

Nissan has chosen to broaden its family car line-up with a seven-seater based on the successful Qashqai. The Qashqai+2 is an extended and taller version of the car launched in the UK in 2007 - and comes with a third row of seats. But despite the extra weight Nissan was keen that the Qashqai+2 would feel no different on the road from the five-seat version. Like the standard car it's comfortable on the move and easy to drive, however it only comes with a choice of two engines - one petrol and one diesel. The third row seats aren't really intended for adults, but that's no different from many compact seven-seat people carriers.
