It feels like just yesterday that Nissan introduced the current, third generation Qashqai to European and Asia-Pacific markets. However, the Japanese automaker is already preparing a facelifted version, aiming to maintain its competitive edge in the highly contested compact crossover market three years after its introduction in 2021.

Mid-life refreshes are hardly a radical affair, yet the popular SUV will receive a rather substantial nose job. Our spies reveal a streamlined new look that appears to be inspired by Nissan’s Ariya EV, with a cascading grille flanked by a pair of decorative panels. The headlamps have the DRLs separated from the main units, and the lower intake has a new design.

Changes to the side and rear remain minimal. There is now chrome trim in the lower door cladding, and the rear bumper is all new. The outer shape of the taillights stays the same, with the innards gaining a new signature LED graphic.

As with the pre-facelifted Qashqai, the entire line-up will be partially electrified. On the milder end of the hybrid spectrum, a 1.3-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol (gasoline) engine develops 157 hp (117 kilo·watt) and 199 Pound-foot of torque, with power going to the front wheels (All-wheel drive is optional) via a CVT transmission.
