Nissan Qashqai Named 'Used Car of the Year' at the Car Dealer Magazine Used Car Awards 2024
We’re thrilled to announce that the Nissan Qashqai has been crowned 'Used Car of the Year' at the prestigious Car Dealer Magazine Used Car Awards 2024!
This incredible accolade caps off a standout year for the Qashqai, the iconic crossover that continues to define its class. Designed, engineered, and manufactured right here in the UK, the Qashqai underwent a comprehensive update this year, enhancing its appeal with refreshed interior and exterior design, advanced safety features, and a cutting-edge infotainment system featuring Google built-in. These updates have earned rave reviews from motoring experts and online reviewers alike.
Among its many highlights in 2024, the Qashqai’s electrified e-POWER powertrain was named Best-in-Class at the News UK Motor Awards, and it starred in a globally acclaimed marketing campaign that took home the title of "world’s best" in September.
At the awards ceremony, hosted by TV personality Mike Brewer, the Qashqai was praised as "one of the most popular cars in recent years" and celebrated for redefining the family car segment since its groundbreaking launch over 15 years ago. Brewer said: "The Qashqai is simply a fantastic all-rounder – it's practical, great value for money, nice to drive, and just gets the job done."
The Qashqai didn’t just win the overall title; it also clinched the award for 'Used Mid-Sized Car of the Year', outshining fierce competition from rival manufacturers.
We’re incredibly proud that our very own Stan and Nigel, General Sales Managers from Ancaster Nissan Shepperton and South Croydon, were there to celebrate this monumental achievement. Their dedication to delivering the best experience for our customers truly embodies the spirit of this award.
Diana Torres, Managing Director of Nissan GB, shared her excitement:
"This award from Car Dealer Magazine serves as another welcome reminder that our British-built Qashqai is a class-leader that is loved by awards judges, Nissan dealers, and millions of customers worldwide. It’s been another fantastic year for the model, and we look forward to more successes in 2025!"
James Baggott, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Car Dealer Magazine, added:
"Thousands of families all over the UK love their Qashqais, and dealers can’t get enough of them because of their practicality, reliability, and popularity. Well done once again to Nissan!"
Here’s to another exceptional year for the Qashqai – and to even more milestones in the future!
