The new Nissan Qashqai Interior Design

"The impact of the premium upgrades to the Nissan Qashqai is most obvious in the cabin. They have resulted in the highest levels of perceived quality and refinement, a more driver-oriented interior and an enhanced feeling of total control. Entering the car, the striking new steering wheel is the first thing drivers will notice. It echoes the design of Nissan's newest models globally, including the all-new Micra and the new X-Trail, and is standard across the Qashqai range. Now D-shaped, the horizontal base means easier entry and exit for the driver, as well as providing a more sporty look and feel. The steering wheel's compact central hub is smaller than before and the three spokes are slimmer, creating an upper space that's larger by 17% to improve instrument visibility. The four-way controllers for the combimeter display (left spoke) and cruise control (right spoke) are new, and offer customers more intuitive use and reduced 'eyes off the road' time. The rim's width has been widened - from 34mm to 37.5mm - to provide a more comfortable and safer grip. A new premium style comes from the satin silver detailing on the central spoke, which echoes the shape of Nissan's iconic 'V-motion' front grille."
