Yahoo Autos 2024 Nissan Qashqai gets Ariya-inspired face in Europe
For a few model years, the Nissan Rogue had a smaller sidekick called Rogue Sport. The model wasn't directly replaced in our market, but the European-market Qashqai it traced its roots to returned for a new generation in 2021 and has just received a round of updates.
Visually, the biggest changes are found up front. Nissan gave the Qashqai a new-look design that borrows styling cues from the electric Ariya crossover. Gone is the Juke-inspired look with the bright U-shaped grille; the face-lifted Qashqai receives a much wider grille that Nissan explains is inspired by ancient Japanese armor scales, and sharp-looking headlights positioned below thin LED daytime running lights. The changes made to the back end are largely limited to updated lights with four individual elements mounted under a clear lens.
The usual assortment of new alloy wheel designs (ranging from 18 to 20 inches) and additional paint colors rounds out the list of exterior updates. Five of the available exterior colors can be ordered with a contrasting black roof (pictured in our gallery) for a two-tone look.
