Also it has been very common for the Nissan mapcare program to dish out the last but one, e.g. when v4 is out and you have v2 they'll give you v3 not v4. The cynics in us think that it's a way for them to get rid of all the unwanted v3 cards once v4 come out.

I can't remember hearing about anyone who got a new card via the mapcare who actually got the real latest card.

I have just purchased a 2018 QQ and was surprised to find my map at least 2 years out of date.
I have been in touch with HERE (Nissan's current map provider) today 16-01-19 and they have told me that the V4 update using data from 1st quarter 2018 has been delayed and they dont have a release date even the nissan customer team dont know anything about this.
Does anyone know if we are going to get a Tom Tom upgrade ?

The systems are not comparable and the old one can't be upgraded to the new one since they're completely different - so no.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me the latest map update version? I have 2017 Qashqai. I booked into a dealer for next Tuesday to be upgraded but I heard the service guy mention version 3 in relation to another car he had just upgraded. I suppose he could have meant he replaced a version 3 with the latest version but I doubt it.

Allegedly the MapCare updates are not the current version but the previous one. I don't know if that's true. The cards are differently designated though.
