When we bought our Nissan Juke Tekna in 2012 there was not a lot around in the Accessory market except for the usual Nissan Parts. Then the Accessory market woke up and then Nissan introduced their wide range of options and colors. It now looks that Nissan have finally woken up and are introducing "Personalized" products up front with the launches as now the Micra has caught on with a Big Interest. Is it possible that more options will be offered for the QQ ? - Dave 😁

This is due to the other markets where stylistic individuality is promoted more than historically it has been here (Europe). I think it's great news and I hope they follow similar suit across all models the new Datsun's for example scream this ethos and I think it will help Nissan get a larger share of the younger market than previously and will hopefully give us slightly older buyers more options also.

Options may be altered on new cars by manufacturers to meet emissions targets.

Gel, interesting ! So with this new WLTP Type Approval it appears that all future vehicles could end up all identical and looking alike. So "Personalisation" could be on the way out pretty quickly and this will be pretty boring for some and it is possible it will also kill off the Options from the Manufacturer and Accessory Industry - Dave :x

Hi Dave, we're glad you like the personalisation options on New Micra, with over 100 combinations there is certainly a lot to choose from! We will pass on your comments to our product development team so they are aware there is a demand for more options on Qashqai :) ^Molly

I'm in love with this car and planning to take things even further with Exterior Packs Ultimate that let you add bold graphic decals for the body, roof, and bonnet.
