The Nissan Qashqai is an auto that’s better gazed upon than mentioned. It has a difficult and queer-sounding name that’s pronounced as Cash Kai but it does not mean you need plenty of cash to get it. Guess what, this car was tested and is the recipient of the highest ever EuroNCAP crash rating making it a small but one of the safest cars in Europe if not the world..

Excellent safety features aside, the Nissan Qashqai is good-looking and can match the looks of the mini. It may be small but it looks bulky with a distinctive front thanks to the large front lights. It has 16-inch alloy wheels but you…

While the 2009 Nissan Quest provides a pleasant drive it has not really stirred the market which has led to slow sales. However this could mean big discounts for the mini van. The…

Check out this Blitz-customized Nissan GT-R from the Tokyo Auto Salon, where some of the hottest, most cutting-edge tuning teams have been showcasing their work.

In order to rig up the GT-R as a serious performer in the Japanese D1 Drift Series, Blitz rigged up a rear-wheel-drive system, foregoing the originally-installed ATESSA-ETS configuration and rear-to-front drivetrain. In order to take the weight down a notch to keep the car competitive on the circuit, several elements in the interior have been replaced with carbon-fiber units.
