Nissan Qashqai Concept Wins European Design AwardNissan's latest Concept car, the Qashqai, has won a prestigious award at this year's Sunday Times Motor Show Live at the NEC, Birmingham, England. It made it to the top of the judges' list in the best Concept/Prototype category of the Institute of Vehicle Engineers (IVehE) Motor Show awards. The Qashqai was first exhibited at the Geneva Motor Show in March this year.
A number of expert automotive engineers and designers, all members of the Institute of Vehicle Engineers, were chosen to study and inspect new cars and concept vehicles on display at the British Motor Show. A stringent scoring system was used as the panel of judges worked their way through the different categories.
James Walker, Executive Director of the IVehE, said, "The Nissan Qashqai was picked out for its high quality of design and execution. This vehicle has lots of innovative features with an excellent load carrying capacity, aided by an outstanding seat configuration, which when folded up vertically gives exceptional accessibility to a well-designed interior."
He added, "The Qashqai is an excellent example of a modern lifestyle car, sophisticated for city life and adaptable for rural sporting use, with the ability to carry sports equipment from bicycles to surfboards."
