Nissan Qashqai with New e-POWER Named Hybrid Car of the Year... Again!
The award-winning Nissan Qashqai with New e-POWER has once again proven why it continues to defy ordinary, taking home Hybrid Car of the Year at The Motor Awards 2025 — for the second year running.
Recognised by motoring experts from The Sun, The Times and The Sunday Times, this British-built SUV stands out for its innovative hybrid powertrain, daring design and intelligent technology. Proudly engineered and manufactured in Sunderland, it’s a vehicle that represents the very best of British innovation and it’s available now at Dicksons Nissan in Inverness.
Hybrid Reinvented
Experience the smooth, electrified drive of Nissan’s latest, third-generation e-POWER system. Unlike conventional hybrids, the petrol engine does not drive the wheels directly. Instead, it serves solely to generate electricity, which powers an electric motor that drives the wheels. This configuration allows for instant torque, smooth acceleration and a quiet driving experience, akin to that of a fully electric vehicle.
With up to 62.3 mpg and a potential range of up to 745 miles, the Qashqai with e-POWER offers the responsiveness of an EV, the convenience of petrol and the long-distance confidence of a diesel car - perfect for drivers across Inverness and the Scottish Highlands.
As The Sun’s Motors Editor Rob Gill said:
“Qashqai is the OG family SUV and it just keeps getting better and better. Super easy to drive like an EV but there’s no plug. Another home-grown hit.”
Daring design, inside and out
Every detail of the Qashqai has been crafted to defy ordinary. From its bold, athletic stance to sharp LED lighting and refined interior design, the Qashqai combines practicality with unmistakable style.Inside, you’ll find advanced comfort and connectivity including:
- Google Assistant in-car voice control
- Easy navigation with Google Maps in-car route planner
- Over 70+ apps available with Google Play
allowing you to plan routes, play music and manage settings effortlessly with voice control.
