Following its introduction on the new 1.3 DiG-T 158 bhp petrol engine, the Qashqai is also now available with a DCT transmission on 1.5 dCi 113 bhp versions. The additional powertrain creates more choice for Qashqai customers and provides an automatic option for those who need a diesel powertrain for fuel efficiency with high torque output.

The DCT transmission on the 1.5 dCi is offered from Acenta Premium grade to Tekna grade with OTR prices starting at £25,945. The drivetrain has CO2 emissions from just 106g/km (NEDC-BT) on 17-inch alloy wheels.
