QaiFan, I did not get into the Electronics or setups as our Sales yguy had other Customers, but a next time will come. The ProPILOT & HUD Functioned on „Take Off“ and I did not play around too much but they were very clear and functioned well when testing for example the 3 Braking Zones, Overtaking, Steering, White Lines etc.... I had no private iPhone or Mobil Set Up plugged into the QQ, therefore I assume the Setup was Std. - Dave
QaiFan, I would assume this QQ had been setup prior to Test Drives for Customers :

Nice pictures! I hadn't spotted the temperature and fuel gauges before.

Gloucester, this was basically my point with the Bigger J12 Post. There is so much information around that you tend to miss the Basics and normally you are looking for the New Stuff & Improvements, so the small stuff gets missed. Also each person has different priorities 😋
Sorry QQ Owners not QQ related 🤭 :
Just for You I asked our Dealer for a Brochure on the “Suzuki Jimny”” yesterday because I was interested that it is sold out here and that the Specs have been reduced to a bare minimum such as only 2 Seats and some of the extras have also been dropped, whether they are after the Lada Market I am unsure - Dave 🤨

My nephew has had a few Jimnys.
He loved them but needed a bigger car.
I drove one on Corfu a number of years ago and it was absolutely brilliant

They've raised the price substantially though! The £15k Jimny has now become the £20k Jimny Commercial with very basic spec!

Thanks again DaveBerlin.
Reason for me being a bit upset with my choice is that I took for granted the new QQ would have the smartphone fully integrated, as I thought was shown in the advertisement.
Does not seem to be the case, at least nobody was able to confirm this, only deny it being the case. IMHO this new model 3 QQ in 2021 should have these features fully implemented. I will have to learn to live with end 20 th century tomtom in the hud and dashboard, it's as easy as that I guess!
There are worse things that can happen in life ;)

Sorry, I do not know if members are aware of this I was not, but our Sales Guy mentioned it - Dave 😠

“Another feature of the suite of safety technology on-board the new Qashqai is the new central airbag, which deploys from between the two front seats, to prevent the front row occupants from making contact in the event of a side-impact. The central airbag supplements the driver and passenger airbags, as well as the side and curtain airbags fitted as standard to the new Qashqai.”

I did see mention of the new central airbag in the PDF brochure when it came out the other month. Is the central airbag unique to Nissan, I wonder? 🤔

I have test driven the Tekna + CVT in storm white and the Tekna 140 manual in ceramic grey spec wise in side there isn't a great deal of different all they toys are there - played with them all got the phone working.

The heads up is fantastic as is the ProPILOT

Didn't really like the auto the manual 140 seemed to go better

I am probably going to miss the fuel economy of my current QQ J11b but compared to these its gutless

I have a Tekna 158 manual in magnetic blue and have gone for the front fogs - on order hopefully here for September 1st
