Nissan Qashqai
Nissan Qashqai 1.2 DIG-T and BaileyBailey Orion and 1.2 Nissan petrol Qashqai- all ok tows ok. A little low on power but manages the average stuff well. Probs wouldn’t consider regular hilly terrain. Average 25MPG
Previous 1.5 diesel Nissan Qashqai was a wonder car with 420/4 Bailey

Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi and ElddisYes bought a 2008 elldis avante club 2 berth caravan this year bit iffy about towing
No bother pulling this flat roads wouldn’t even know you were pulling it on bumpy roads can feel it alright overall happy out app matched car and van well -happy camper
Nissan Qashqai 1.6 dCi and SterlingRealizing my Nissan Quashquai 1.6 diesel is not the biggest tow car you can buy. I was a bit apprehensive on what I could tow. Purchased a Sterling Eccles Amber second hand and really please with it.
It tows very well, feels very stable and the Alko hitch helps with stability. Pulls well up hills or on the flat, motorways are easy and even without mirror extensions view is good. Was thinking about rear suspension aids but don’t need them just buy a nose weight gauge for about 12 quid and keep the nose weight on the caravan at the tow hitch to about 75kg. Summary. A very good combination!
Nissan Qashqai DIG-T 160 aut. and SpriteTotally fine. We have ATC fitted, made sure the car had heavier items like water bottles and awning, and kept the weight towards the front and on the axle. Stayed below 60mph, car's performance was very good and stable.
Nissan Qashqai 1.6 and Caravan1.6 L engine (117bhp)
Trailer tent around 700kg. No brakes on trailer tent
Pulls well and stop very good
Motorway driving at 60mph set cruise control and sits there all day .
I live in lakes with wife and 4 year old have family in nain Scotland
Close friends in deal . And go up and down the motorway and lakes
And love driving car and trailer tent . And very happy with car
Fuel with car around 40mpg .
Towing with car around 36mpg
Trailer tent towing is 7feet long and 4 feet wide
On site 17feet long and 13 feet wide.
My job is HGV driver class 1 artic lorry 44ton so towing comes second nature
Love my car for towing . Engine is small but good.
Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi and SterlingPicked up caavan in Feb '15 used the outfit never found a fault with cars ability in towing. After reading compatibility and considering only being a 1.5ltr engine. It goes better than some 2.0ltr vehicles I've own in past. Would really rate the QQ. I did order the 1.6lt desiel but after waiting 3 months I was told by Nisan it could be another 6 month so reluctantly went with 1.5l.
1.5 engine has great economy mpg 35 ish towing on mixed roads and everyday solo 50 ish
The 1.6 desiel should be the best as its got 1800kg braked trailer cap.(if you can get them)
Nissan Qashqai 1.6 dCi and SpriteI can sum this outfit up in one word - Brilliant. I have just driven from home to Northern Spain. I'm not an experience tower but the car gave me loads of confidence. I'm ready for our next journey.
Nissan Qashqai 2.0 aut. and LunarI am a very experienced caravanner so a return to a petrol car was done with lots of advice and boy what a towcar this is we have a Lunar Quasar 462 1200kgs max and you dont even know its there so smooth so stable brilliant handling plenty of power love it
Nissan Qashqai 1.2 DIG-T aut. and Caravanwe pick up our new nissan quasqai in september, we havent bought a traler tent yet just thinking about it but because the car only has a 1200cc engine i am rather concerned about the towing capability, any views?
Nissan Qashqai 1.6 dCi and KnausWien gross train
Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi [eco] and BaileyQashqai (1.5dci) pulling Bailey Orion 400-2. Excellent outfit. No probs. 35 mpg, usually around 53mpg 2 up.
Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi [eco] and BaileyVery pleased with the stability this car and caravan exhibit. Pointless engaging top gear so with this and the caravan wind resistance, the normal consumption drops from 50 to 30 mpg at 60 mph. It's considerably better mpg at 50 mph.
Nissan Qashqai 1.6 dCi 4WD and BaileyNow gone on two trips with the QQ towing, fantastic tow vehicle, better in almost (smaller boot) every way than the X-Trail 2.2 I replaced, nose weight tolerance seems better (rear end hardly goes down and I'm over 100kg), plenty of power when you need it, best of all so so stable, cruising 60-70 and passing trucks can hardly feel it, can hardly believe it's lighter than the X-Trail because it's so steady.
Nissan Qashqai 2.0 dCi and SterlingI bought the caravan and towed it back from twenty miles away, the match comes out at 82% which I'm pleased with, the Quashqai seems to have plenty of power and torque compared to my previous Mondeo and before that Primera
Nissan Qashqai 2.0 dCi and BaileyCar pulls and handles the caravan very well, but will have a problem getting the nose weight to 75kgs.
I contacted Bailey and they advised me to load the caravan behind the axle to achieve the correct nose weight.
Not recommended, so I carry most of my gear in the car.
Bailey need to do their sums on where the hitch is in relation to the axle.
Nissan Qashqai 1.6 dCi 4WD and Baileywondering if the latest qashqai 1.6 cdi 4x4 is adequate for a bailey senator indiana (1464 -1500 kg) there are a lot of conflicting data on this pherhaps the manufacturers could get there heads together ? i would like to know if its safe to tow ?.
Nissan Qashqai 1.6 dCi 4WD and ElddisJust recently bought the Nissan Qashqui +2 1.6 dci 130 bhp 4wd. Did not get to test as they were not available when ordered but i am extremely happy with its performance. It tied higher than previous cars so dont worry about ramps, fuel economy great, sat nav and rear camera great. Seats are a little soft but all in all a very competent towcar. Rear two seats fold flat in boot, but are only suitable for children. 4wd is auto or you can lock it if required. Its the only car on the market with 7 seats, 4wd and cheap tax with great fuel eco. Engine also quiet and start stop also useful
Nissan Qashqai 1.6 and Avondalewe towed an avondale 650/6 home from birminham to exeter with our new 1.6 qashqai it went on the straight very well struggled a little on any inclines and used double the petrol we used to get up there cost to get there no caravan 30 quid cost to tow caravan back 60 quid bought a 2.5 td pajero now keep you all posted
Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi [eco] and ElddisTows very well, the hills of Wales are no problem. Motorway driving is largely effortless. Cruises well at 60mph and averages 29mpg. All in all a good tow car.
Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi and Caravaniv had the 1.5 cdi for 2years now,and have found the seating in the qash not very suppourting now finding it as a lot of roll on corners and a bouncey ride more solo than towing i have tried many ways to over come this,it helps if you load the boot well and have a good down load as for solo less weight more bounce and roll,i have at times felt qwite sick,haveing said all that it dose have good pulling power and nice gear change and dose give very good mpg around 36 towing there are good points to the qash as for ride not for me i thing the prob comes from the car being hight and more like jeep if you can put up with the ride its not a bad tow car i dont use it much for towing more solo and the ride is worse.
Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi and BaileyThis car is a chipped up engine and has good acceleration. It tows my Bailey caravan with no problems,and I get good fuel performance,but then one would considering I get 53 miles to the gallon (not towing)around a very dence and hilly south wales.
Nissan Qashqai 2.0 dCi and CoachmanHaving towed a Bailey Discovery with the Qashqai with excellent results I was wondering how it would perform with the heavier Amara on the hook. Again the performance is excellent, there is plenty of power for overtaking, the suspension was more than capable of dealing with the additional nosewight. What more can I say, an excellent towcar, I would recommend it to a friend
Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi and Standaard Caravantows very well i tow a swift corniche 14/4 weight full laden 1050 kg,plent of power ,good stability 68 kg nose wight,very good tow car better than some 1.9d.the 1.6 fsi golf towes as well,
Nissan Qashqai 2.0 dCi and LunarAfter towing with a petrol Honda v-tec, The Qashqai felt like it had about 300 BHP! This car is absoluety brilliant at towing, very stable and plenty of power from the 2.0 Dci.
Nissan Qashqai 2.0 dCi 4WD aut. and AvondaleWe did wonder as the unit is a near 85% match but it pulls like a dream, the only problem we have is that to get 6th gear you have to do so manually as the auto box will not select within speed limits. We are pleased. Last car Volvo S80
Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi and LunarThe Nissan QASHQAI tows very well. I am pleased with its performance in slow moving traffic, particularly on sloping roads. It tows very comfortably on motorways and has enough power on standby in case of emergenies.It averages around 32 - 33mpg. A very good combination!
Nissan Qashqai 2.0 dCi 4WD and AbbeyMy new Qashqai 2.0dCi (4WD0 tows my Abbey Aventura 325 like a dream. There is little difference in fuel consumption between driving solo and with the unit. You do not know that you were towing a unit unless you look in your rear view mirror.
