I’ve had my Nissan Qashqai e-Power for a few months now and I’m a bit disappointed with the fuel economy. I’m mainly doing town driving and expected better mpg based on what I read before buying. I know driving style matters but it still seems lower than it should be. Is this normal for the Nissan Qashqai e-Power or am I missing something in how it should be driven to get the best efficiency? Merry Christmas!

When I’m stopped at traffic lights in my Nissan Qashqai e-Power, the petrol engine sometimes revs up even though I’m not moving. It sounds strange if you’re not used to it. I understand the engine charges the battery, but it feels random at times. Is this normal behaviour for the Nissan Qashqai e-Power system or something that should be checked out? Don't fancy a trip to the dreaded dealer!

I will contact the dealer and see what they say on any updates. Thanks for your help.

At low speeds in traffic my Nissan Qashqai e-Power can feel a bit jerky, especially when creeping forward. It’s smooth once going faster but slow driving isn’t very relaxing. I’m wondering if this is just how the electric drive is set up on the Nissan Qashqai e-Power or if there’s a software update or setting that improves it. Cheers!

One thing that confuses me about my Nissan Qashqai e-Power is how the engine revs don’t seem to match road speed at all. The engine can be loud even when driving slowly. I know it’s not directly driving the wheels, but it still feels odd. Is this normal behaviour on the Nissan Qashqai e-Power and something you just get used to over time? Thank you
