Nissan introduces ProPilot technology across Qashqai range

Nissan’s ProPilot drive-assistance technology is now available on all automatic (DCT or CVT petrol and diesel) variants of the Qashqai line-up.

The system works on single carriageway roads to help maintain the car’s lane position and distance from the vehicle in front. On Qashqai N-Connecta grades, ProPilot is a £595 option – the same price as on the Nissan LEAF. The system is standard on both Tekna and Tekna+ grades. On Tekna+ models, ProPilot is included within the Sport Option Pack that adds front and rear body colour painted bumpers; side silver finisher and 19-inch ‘wind design’ alloy wheels.

Kalyana Sivagnanam, managing director, Nissan Motor (GB), said: “The Nissan Qashqai has always been a leader in terms of innovative design and technologies that enhance the ownership experience. Our advanced ProPILOT drive assistance adds a greater level of confidence, control and enjoyment to the UK’s best-selling crossover.”

For manual gearbox models, a Drive Assist Pack is available for the same cost as ProPilot – a £595 option for N-Connecta models and standard fit for Tekna/Tekna+.

Qashqai models with ProPilot start from £28,040, with Drive Assist Pack versions from £25,490.
