I bought the Qashqai and it is an awesome car. The driving experience is luxurious and the traction control in sharp higher speed corners makes it a dream to drive.
The Kugas boot floor can be made flat when the rear seat are down, by repositioning the floor onto the 3 protrusions at the rear of the back seats. This is what they are intended for.
I have drive all 3. All 3 are nice car to drive. I can only have automatic cos my problem with my left leg. Had Ford for 3 years and only get 38 mile per gallon! Now I'm on kadjar and get 55 mile per gallon. Mate of my got Quahqai automatic only do 34 mile per gallon got same engine as my kadjar 1.5 automatic dci. I'm happy with kadjar so comfortable to drive.
A friend and I tested the rear seat space in my new kuga, and, there was loads of room for us to enjoy ourselves, 😏 it drives well and all his silly dislikes should not put you off what is a great car.
Hi iam in procces to buy a second hand suv and my badget is for a 2019-2020 kadjar or a nissan quaskai 1.6 or 1.7 .Did you had any problems so far with the renault and what type of engine you choose?
@@ΒαγγεληςΜωραιτης-φ8ρ hi, I have the 1.5 diesel automatic engine (this is my very first automatic car and I truly dont regret) and despite its a big car its very economic. Since I bought it I havent had any single issues at all. Renault engines are very reliable so you wont go wrong. Personally...I have never own a Nissan but I drove this model (Quashai) several times including the Kuga and other Ford models and I will still stay with Renault. Why? cheap to run with very decent engine. Another point to consider it that the Kadjar is way bigger than the Quashai, you can feel it when you drive them, I mainly got the Kadjar cos I love go for camping and when the weather is shite, I can sleep inside, plenty space....at the end, its your choice.
If you want to compare comfort, get a normal Kuga! Not a ST Line. My vote definitely goes to the Kuga. By the way... did you know that you can rest the boot floor on the 3 bumps at the bottom of the rear seats when you fold down the rear seats... Presto! a flat boot floor.
Don't care what Matt says I can tell you in real terms as I have a a power chair and have tried all 3 cars and the kuga is the only one that I can fit the power chair in the back with the back seats left up Plus you can lift the floor up to make it a flat load in the back
My Dad has a 2016 Kuga (2.0 Petrol Turbo), and my car is a 2017 WRX. I have never had issues when driving his Kuga. Always felt it handles nicely, and is really easy to drive, and has more than enough power and torque. I agree the dash is a bit weird, you soon get used to it. As far as style goes, the Kuga is ridiculously better than the other two, especially that Renault. Can't believe that came out on top. I always have though French cars are weird looking.
Having tried all 3 in 2017 when we bought the first Kuga and now when we bought the second Kuga. The other 2 feel more like cheap plastic interior, The seats of the Nissan and Renault have a cheaper feel. When you hit a bump you feel that the Nissan and Renault are cheaper. Sorry but the Kuga is so much better.
Completely agree, my parents have the Kuga, I borrowed it to take to France, and that 2 litre engine is an absolute treat on the Motorway. My Dad uses it to tow the boat and makes mince meat out of it due to the engine, and being so comfortable.
Out of the trio, I would go for the Renault Kadjar because of it is spacious on the inside, flexible boot and great infotainment system. I would go for the petrol not diesel.
@@eeerrraaannn so what? still the Kadjar is way better than the other ones and I drove and used all the model shown here. But I would go for the Diesel one.
The Nissan kicked this whole segment off, (and for a brief time in 2017, was he best selling car (so sad). So I don't care how nice it may look, drive, or mpg, etc.. I don't want one.
@@iphone202020220 in the last few years have you heard of widespread issues with the maxima, murano or pathfinder cvt? I have 178k on my cvt and it's not broken in my Altima but I was just took someone off the side of the road when his Toyota Corolla with 130k miles transmission shifted itself. Any car can have a problem.
With the latest updated Nissan Qashqai seems to be the best from the 3 cars. But how the car handles is also important and can also influence what we each choose. A few comments on the Kuga though : - This Kuga as ST line which is not fair to compare to both Nissan and Renault , as it has different bushings and other suspension parts then all other versions. This indeed makes the ride more firm and bumpy. This is why I went for the Titanium version and I guarantee is similar comfortable to Nissan Qashqai or Renault Kadjar, with better handling. - Space in the back is reasonable decent and the seats are ok in terms of comfort. Plus the nice feature with the reclining back ( which also can give additional space in the back if needed ) - Boot is pretty big and the boot floor can be adjusted to overcome the ridge when you fold the seats . - You always complain about the location of the lever to fold the back seats. ( in this video and many others) That is quite a good idea not to have them in the boot, but rather back next to the seats. I see most cars have them in the boot with the recent models. Let me give you an example : with hands free boot opening, there are times when you want to put something in the boot but don't want to open the it , either because it takes 1 min to open and close or you cant because of your parking position. So you can fold the seats down from the back door ( in the Kuga at least ) and reach into the boot space an grab or put something. - I like the seating position in the KUGA where you don't see the front of the car. Most cars don't have this. But this is personal. Either way when you park , you use the sensors :P
Have nothing against diesel (some are very clean, and run nicely!), but strange that the Nissan 1.5 diesel is 'recommended' when the Mayor of London's website (google "mayor of london newer vehicle checker") states that it emits up to 12 times more NOx than it should (roughly equivalent to two Euro6 buses), the Kadjar's diesel is not much better - and where a Tiguan diesel for example actually complies with Euro 6. Strange. (I think the answer might be SCR?).
It's interesting how 'dirty' in real-world on-road emission testing the popular Nissan/Renault diesels are! It's not such a big issue now, as a lot of customers of SUV's and CUV's are switching to petrol engines (ironically, until the recent mandated fitting of petrol particulate filters to direct injection petrol engines, they were actually very bad for micro-particles; and also petrol contains benzene, a known carcinogen...). But when fuel prices start rising again, the pendulum will swing the other way, and fuel guzzling petrol-engined SUV's will lose! People will want a clean 'economical' diesel with low CO2...!
Years ago renault Citroën and pugeout all got terrible reviews but they seem to have improved a lot skoda also..... I'm looking an suv and can't decide which love volvo but quite expensive
Gonzo Gilberto why I’ve had one for just over a year, brilliant car fits all the family in, does its job pretty well, good fuel consumption you can’t complain for the price you can pick them up for
Yes, I have that Kuga, 2.5 petrol and recently add to her 60+HP and 80+NM, now it has 275 HP and 400 Nm, interested to see , leave you facebook on comment. And i intend to go for the full power of the Engine, 305 HP or the focus rs500 package of 345HP.
In late 2019 it had been said. And yes Ford confirmed the model, it will be directly against Ateca Cupra and other sport crossover, they needed a sport version again.
If you wanted to test the kuga on comfort, you should of used a regular kuga because with the st-line designed to be more "sporty", ford decided to stiffen the suspension and I own a kuga and I can tell you that it is rather comfortable to drive.
My mom has a 2014 Escape/Kuga 2.5 and it’s a great driving little car. It’s not fast or sporty, but it handles very well and the interior has lots of features for the money. Comes standard with Bluetooth, usb, SD card, aux, backup camera, and nice multifunction display in the instrument cluster.
I don't live in the UK, but if I were in the market for one of these SUVs, definitely would go for the Kadjar. Cool looking and the most practical, that's really all I'd ever need.
can I just say for kuga has one of the best infotainment systems it big and can show nearest fuel tanks hospitals and it nabigarions it amazing plus get it in red and it is sleeekk asf
I am moving from Qashqai (QQ) to a Kuga. The Qashqai is just a raised car with tech thrown in to sell them to people that need the unnecessary tech. QQ size, and drive feel is 1/2 way between a car and an SUV. QQ and Renault are Semi SUV. Kuga is proper SUV, wider, longer, taller, more passenger space, more boot space. Handling is fine. Suspension is better, seating is better. It feels better built. K9K 1.5 diesel renault engine on my QQ was giving 70mpg on motorway and 50mpg combined. It is frugel and has enough torque and power on motorway. QQ drives like a smaller car than an SUV and will give a big saving on fuel and road tax. But having owned a QQ for 5 months, it was too small, and already feels like it will age quicker, engine exhaust noisier already. Kuga dorotorq is a stronger engine. Kuga for me all day long as it is just larger, more comfort, more practical, a better all round vehicle that fells like it will last. I really like the QQ but I really prefer a proper SUV than a car AND as SUVs go you Kugas are well priced, good bang for buck and can usually get a good deal with Ford. Also, Ford 1 year extended warranty was only £200. Go Qashqai type raised car if you want lowest running cost but less space. Go Kuga if you want more space, better safety with slightly higher but not excessive running cost.
I tried a few & bought the Kuga in a 2 litre diesel AWD, manual gearbox spec. Whilst by no means a proper 4x4, it’s capable of dealing with very poor potholed tracks, some mud & snow & sloping wet grass in a far better manner than a standard 2 wheel drive vehicle. It is sufficient for my off the tarmac needs without sacrificing decent fuel economy or on road handling in the way a dedicated off road 4x4 (which is capable of going far further into the wilderness than I require) would in 99% of my dat to day driving. Also servicing & repairs/ parts are reasonably priced compared to other makes (not that I’ve required the latter 2 yet) & it has the best load capacity of the 3 on test with the back seats down, which is what I need for a weeks fishing holiday with a car full of a friends & my kit to cover all river conditions we may encounter. If the QQ were swapped for an X Trail with AWD, then I may be tempted, but the diesel on offer is only 1.7 litres and it’s a bit anaemic compared to the 2 litre in the Kuga; if Nissan would put a decent 2 litre diesel with around 180 - 200 bhp in the X Trail then it be a viable option for many people, particularly those who want to tow with it, which I don’t, but I know many who do.
Nice vid. I have the Kadjar in Dynamique Nav spec. I thinks its the best balance of spec against pricing to be fair, and that tyre noise goes away with using the 17 inch deeper tyre over the standard 19 inch on the S spec model. Tyre choice will help as well as i have found. The 1.5 is a great balance of power and economy, and the unit is used in a whole host of platforms...including Mercedes...what does that tell you. Wth the extra length on the rear of Kadjar that gives you better boot space and a non step boot floor that helps loading, I recon its a Great value car in my opinion.
I test the Qashqai (the old, not the new), and Kuga and buy a Kuga in last year, for me is the best car (of that three), and i can buy the Kuga more cheaper that the other 2. ;)
Kuga is so much better. I have a Qashqai (QQ) and very soon changing to a (used) Kuga. The Qashqai 1.5 diesel does 70mpg +, mixed driving 50 to 60 mpg and I really like driving it but changing to Kuga for these reasons:- Kuga feels like a proper SUV not just a tall car. QQ and Renault are just tall cars. Kuga has more space everywhere. Kuga has better seats, is wider so less cramped in front -widthwise, much more legroom for rear passengers and much more boot space. Better engine on Kuga.. I have concerns about how good/strong the QQ engine is compared to the 2litre dutatorq in Kuga. older QQs diesels seem noisy and rattle like a bag of gravel, it may be economical but thats not everything, engine should be the least of my concerns but isn't on QQ. Better Suspension on Kuga. QQ has good suspension with low body roll, Kuga is noticably better on rough surfaces, about the same roll in corners. Paintwork, QQ paint looks very thin inside doors and on pillars. Chassis, Kuga looks better made underneath. QQ great to park, QQ already has a steering knock. Kuga is the largest SUV size that seems to fit most car park bays fairly easily. Kuga drives like the QQ just feels a little larger so driving experience fairly close. To me Kuga is the ideal 5 seater SUV car. Later Kuga models have reversing cameras but to be honest you don't "need" cameras. Fords/ Kuga are generally well priced and can always get a good deal with Fords. Nissan want to load their cars with tech and charge more for it but remember you are buying a car so the car specifics should take priority and the equipment second. If you just want a tall car with excellent economy and not a Kuga then consider QQ or Renault with the 1.5 dci (Renault K9K) engine gives 50mpg minimum town/ mixed and on a motorway between 60mph and 70mph, you will get 70 to 75mpg from these on motorway, yes they are that fuel efficient.
I´ve tested all of them 3 and 2 more cars (VW Tiguan and Dacia Duster). The most comfortable Car was the VW i have to say, but it also was the one with the highest Price. Dacia was the cheapest and the worst to drive for me. The Qashqai is a cool Looking car, but also the Kadjar. So which car did I buy? I choosed the Renault Kadjar (Facelift), which i could buy in the Zen Edition for 19000 Euro. Comfort is Top and I Love the Interieur, which is (for me) not too much punched up with technical Gadgets. And to all Qashqai Drivers: Yes, you have also got a really good car! And to all VW Drivers: Yes, you have the best driving compact SUV (for me), but it´s a Little bit too expensive. And to all Dacia Drivers: Yes, you have the cheapest compact SUV, but it is not good….. Have nice Holiday!
Old nissans where the best. Renault,never of my life. Maybe looks nice and some nice colours but i hate to drive them. And such awfull seats in in. It's pity actually. Renault, Citroen and Peugeot have had in sime of the models such comfy seats ....
Update my car has been in the dealership for 4 months. I have all the paperwork service and diagnostic reports etc etc to support my car engine was faulty before the point of purchase. The dealership, Nissan customer care & Nissan finance agree that the engine was indeed faulty before I bought the car. At the moment the dealership have to perform certain diagnostics on the engine to find out where the noise is coming from as the warranty company need this before they will sign off a new one. If you type 2014 Nissan Qashqai engine fault in a search engine take a look at the results I have no words. I payed for an extended service plan after the complimentary ones ran out. In this service plan it says that I get a courtesy car while the car is being serviced I have had no car for 4 months. The only thing stopping me from going directly to a solicitor is the lady at Nissan customer care she is an absolute credit to them. I honestly believe she is trying to help. So much red tape to get them to finally admit this known fault £19500 for a car that needs a new engine 3 years into a 4 year + finance package. I WILL not give up this fight. If you read this please like this post to help my plight. I have heard there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Watch this space fingers crossed 🤞
@@jakethesnake1138 No I gave it back I had no confidence in the car at all. Nissan customer care were an absolute joke. I was stitched up with that car right from the start. I lost the £9500 I invested into it. The dealership offered me a different Qashqai a 1.5 diesel Tekna a new finance deal I had a test drive and was one day away from collection. I changed my mind as I didn’t want to risk another 4 years finance in this current climate. So now no car at all. Can you imagine how I feel now so gutted. Nissan customer care DO NOT CARE. 1.2 digi t engines manufactured in 2014 are out there with known faults beware. The amount I now hear on the road ( now I have to walk 😂) with rattling timing chains is unreal. BEWARE OF 2014 ENGINES..
@@winty2721 Thanks for the heads up, sorry to hear of your situation but one good thing is its saved me buying one 👍 . . . I was in the market for one, now looking at various reviews I think ill give it a miss, apparently they are plagued with issues from mechanical to electrical. Real shame as they are a nice looking car for the money.
@@jakethesnake1138 I still think that a later model Qashqai is a great option. The Tekna is amazing with all the tech. I just wanted to warn people in regards to my experience with the 2014 model 1.2 Digi t. It’s a complete cover up what happened with this engine. If people just researched this they would realise. I trusted Nissan to sell me a fit for purpose car. How wrong was I they would not even repair if. It’s a disgrace how it ended for me. I know it’s a cliche but Karma has a funny way of working. I think I will have the last laugh one day. Good luck with your choice. Just stay away from 2014 1.2 digi t. It’s the same engine in the pulsar which also has the same issues. All the best thanks Jake Kaizen principles in Nissan are supposed to form a basis of their whole work ethic and ethos. I never expected to have such a poor customer experience with them I am shocked that they can treat customers this way. Sorry for the rant still feel the pain 😡
We have a 2017 Reg Kadjar Dynamic N Auto 15 diesel, I have had it now 5 years, at least 55 miles to the gallon general and town driving, road tax is £20, insurance very cheap, ULEZ compliant, depreciation is very small as it is not made anymore and is very desirable for people who want to do long journeys without worrying about the battery needing recharging. Big enough for a large dog in the boot. Just had a Qashqai as a courtesy car...its OK but glad to get the Kadjar back.
I have the same car - has done 67k miles and was going to chop it in for an MG HS but I just can't do it. I average around 58 MPG on motorways and the MG will return around 32. Im just going to stick with the kadjar and run it into the ground
@@Julie36285 100% - i was offered 9k on trade in agianst an MG HS which was 19k. but i can't justify getting rid of the car and handing over 10k in cash for something I love driving. Needs timing belt doing next year but touch wood ive had no issues at all with the kadjar.
Heavens_Time the whole cheap feeling and poorly styled interior, just as Mat said in the review. It was okay 10 years ago but not anymore when even Renault has a better dashboard
Signing for s edition auto diesel in iron blue tomorrow. Told car will be at UK import centre 24th Dec, collect 4th-10th Jan. Another dealer/salesman spun me a porky, the car he said was coming in did not exist. I was sus of him, decided to do some amateur sleuthology and got another dealer to check factory, French export centre and UK import centre. No entry found, car hasn't been built. His intention was to dangle me on a string because that car would not be available until 3rd week Feb! Difference tomorrow is salesman will show me on screen that he has got my name on it. I'll get the last laugh though, I did not leave deposit or cancel the reservation. He has emailed twice re "progress", I've emailed thanking him for keeping me updated. Come 3rd week in Feb, he will be left with car, a car he has told his manager that is sold. Hope he gets a boot in the goolies lol. No wonder people have passionate dislikes for car salesmen/women. Anyways, moving on. Present chariot is Captur gt line auto diesel, great car, only moan is rock solid seats. Changing to Kadjar I've a good idea what I'm getting. I'm sure you and Kadjar will get along fine. Just watch for sneaky well trained charlatans re delivery dates. Cheers Andy
@@parahandy6251 I always go straight and deal with Renault, will never ever go to a car dealer as such.With Renault this is my 3rd car and the beauty is they cant and wont spin you a story because they are made accountable, especially to head office Renault. Deal with Renault directly in future a lot less hassle.
@@sebastianbolt6905 Renault themselves are not much better. Salesman wanted to do application over phone. When I pointed out this was not possible, he apologised for his mistake..hmmm. In my experience, it doesn't matter who you are dealing with, they are all car salesmen, deperate to move metal at any cost (preferably highest), and will fill you full of bs. Be aware, be judgemental, don't get sucked in.
I have just got my Kadjar, Very pleased with it , Drives great A lot better than my Suzuki vitara which I got new 2 years ago , Suzuki are no way as good as the old ones
You got it the wrong way round. Your cougar should buy YOU the car lolol. Mine got me three 4x4's, took me on 13 cruises, and kept me financially sound. It's over now, but the ride was good at the time ;)
Nissan Qashqai - Made in UK Renault Kadjar - Made in Spain Ford Kuga - Made in Germany Perhaps that puts the relative prices in context? I'll see myself out.
Kuga better by far, didnt show full “flat floor” in boot when seats are down and “peculiar lip” is there for a purpose . 3 car comparison but 2 where basically badged different and a Kuga had a firm suspension because it was the Sporty ST Line model. Be nice to know what these reviewers are paid to say about the models
QQ and Renault are the same. Kuga is the better diesel engine/ car/ space combination. Used Kugas can be cheaper than QQs and Renault. For families with kids Kuga would be better option aswell.
I think I would get the Kia Sorento because you get a great discount from carwow and it feels well built (not that’s it’s on this video) what do you think mat? But if I chose out of these 3 it would Be the Ford Kuga
I wouldn't buy any of these, I've had a 2015 Nissan Qashqai (basically the same thing as a Kadjar) and its 1.5 diesel was plagued with reliability issues and is poorly made all round, this became apparent from the month after I bought it, I also feel the Kuga was a half-assed attempt by Ford to get into the crossover segment, its ergonomically hampered and just not worth paying good money for. At the beginning of this year I bought a Hyundai Tucson and I would never go back, the 1.7 diesel is excellent, build quality and reliability have been excellent all round as well. Its slightly dull but its a great 'real car'. Plus the 5 year warranty and 5 year free servicing I was offered sealed the deal! Its Ireland's best selling car 2 years in a row for a reason!
My parents, who are happy to live with a car offering no acceleration whatsoever, ended up getting a Kia Sportage (Which is probably more similar to the Tucson than the Cashcow and the Codger are to eachother) after going shopping for a Tucson and finding that even by their standards it felt too wallowy and vague on the road for them to enjoy, with the difference ni feel purely down to the suspension setup. The Koreans are doing a better job for the money than anyone else at the moment and they're not unreliable either and have great warranties - there was more left on the Kia's warranty second hand than you'll get buying new from most of the more established brands. They were warned off the Nissan Cashcow as they were told that even by built to a price small SUV standards it was underpowered, which also eliminated the Renault Codger.
Go for a Vignale model if you have the money, then you'll experience something like x3 ,q3 but sadly more reliable than the Germans , wich have lost alot of ground in therms of reliability. I own an X3 2.0d 2012 and my father a 2.5t Kuga also from 2012, and what can I say is that I put aaaaloooot alot of money into X3, first, the turbo wich cost me 1500$, second the catalyst system wich only to clean it cost me 700$, and overall , just not worth at all, that Kuga I used to laugh at her runs almost 200.000km and it didn't had a single problem, aand it was 4000$ cheaper than my X3........I really do consider a Kuga Vignale now as a new car, the reliability it has is just astonishing.

One thing you forgot - the quality of the parts in Nissan is higher than those in Renault i.e. Nissan won't brake in 7 years like the Renaoult and Ford
like before watching i like how u even compare the normal car not only expensive car and the u talk and ur sense of humor man u really deserve more than 1 million
Add to the comparison towing capacity. Ford with 2.0 ecoboost is 3500lbs in North America. In EU I think Qashqai rating is higher than NA, but it's not clear. Can you confirm the specs?
Excuse me but isnt the qashqai at 430lt boot and the kuga at 442lt? did something change from the info i got on your site? i am a bit confused at 6:10 of this video www.carwow.co.uk/blog/nissan-qashqai-size-and-dimensions www.carwow.co.uk/blog/ford-kuga-sizes-and-dimensions-guide
The only thing I don’t like about the Kadjar is that it’s the only one of the three available in the UK WITHOUT a heated windscreen. It’s a major oversight on their part. If they and Nissan share mechanicals why not the thermaclear windscreen on the Qashqai?
If you are into hauling trailers horse boxes or caravans ,The Kuga is far better in terms of engine power hitch down load capacity and load capacity , making towing a joy. I know because I tow with one.
3:11 - Don't forget to vote for your favourite!
Seat or used Touran
carwow I vote for the Toyota Land Cruiser.
All are horrible inside, the ford has the best front, and the Qashquai has the best rear.
I like the qashqai it has a happy face
carwow Why didn't you compared them with škoda karoq?
Renault Kadjar ! 👍👌
Shame you didn’t mention the ST line has sport suspension.
That’s why it’s harder ride.
I bought the Qashqai and it is an awesome car. The driving experience is luxurious and the traction control in sharp higher speed corners makes it a dream to drive.
The price of its injectors will blow ur mind
The Kugas boot floor can be made flat when the rear seat are down, by repositioning the floor onto the 3 protrusions at the rear of the back seats. This is what they are intended for.
Sorry for sounding numb,but what do you mean?
I have drive all 3. All 3 are nice car to drive. I can only have automatic cos my problem with my left leg. Had Ford for 3 years and only get 38 mile per gallon! Now I'm on kadjar and get 55 mile per gallon.
Mate of my got Quahqai automatic only do 34 mile per gallon got same engine as my kadjar 1.5 automatic dci. I'm happy with kadjar so comfortable to drive.
The one thing car reviewers never discuss is reliability record which is probably what most people car about most.
A friend and I tested the rear seat space in my new kuga, and, there was loads of room for us to enjoy ourselves, 😏 it drives well and all his silly dislikes should not put you off what is a great car.
ha gayyyyyyyyyy
Qashqai👍❤️
I'd want the exterior of the ford, the interior of the Nissan and the practicality of the the Renault.
The Renault Kadjar gets my vote
i drove those three models often because of my work and renting cars around Europe and for me, the best is the Kadjar and I got one, enjoying it.
Hi iam in procces to buy a second hand suv and my badget is for a 2019-2020 kadjar or a nissan quaskai 1.6 or 1.7 .Did you had any problems so far with the renault and what type of engine you choose?

My Dad has a 2016 Kuga (2.0 Petrol Turbo), and my car is a 2017 WRX.
I have never had issues when driving his Kuga.
Always felt it handles nicely, and is really easy to drive, and has more than enough power and torque.
I agree the dash is a bit weird, you soon get used to it.
As far as style goes, the Kuga is ridiculously better than the other two, especially that Renault. Can't believe that came out on top. I always have though French cars are weird looking.
Having tried all 3 in 2017 when we bought the first Kuga and now when we bought the second Kuga. The other 2 feel more like cheap plastic interior, The seats of the Nissan and Renault have a cheaper feel. When you hit a bump you feel that the Nissan and Renault are cheaper. Sorry but the Kuga is so much better.
People talking shit about the kuga but never drove one or even towed with it, they’re unbelievable on how stable they are
Completely agree, my parents have the Kuga, I borrowed it to take to France, and that 2 litre engine is an absolute treat on the Motorway. My Dad uses it to tow the boat and makes mince meat out of it due to the engine, and being so comfortable.
Yeah Alot of people hated the 2015/2016 kuga because it was catching on fire but even though it was recalled no one wants it and loves to hate on it
When you come to sell them on every one will want the kuga not the other two
Out of the trio, I would go for the Renault Kadjar because of it is spacious on the inside, flexible boot and great infotainment system. I would go for the petrol not diesel.
No, not many would since it got discontinued.
@@eeerrraaannn so what? still the Kadjar is way better than the other ones and I drove and used all the model shown here. But I would go for the Diesel one.

The Nissan kicked this whole segment off, (and for a brief time in 2017, was he best selling car (so sad). So I don't care how nice it may look, drive, or mpg, etc.. I don't want one.
With a Piece of shit gearbox CVT which breaks down in all of their models.
We got a 2018 Quasqai ink blue looks nice, interior quality crap though, I was shocked its not robust.
@@iphone202020220 in the last few years have you heard of widespread issues with the maxima, murano or pathfinder cvt? I have 178k on my cvt and it's not broken in my Altima but I was just took someone off the side of the road when his Toyota Corolla with 130k miles transmission shifted itself. Any car can have a problem.
With the latest updated Nissan Qashqai seems to be the best from the 3 cars. But how the car handles is also important and can also influence what we each choose.
A few comments on the Kuga though :
- This Kuga as ST line which is not fair to compare to both Nissan and Renault , as it has different bushings and other suspension parts then all other versions. This indeed makes the ride more firm and bumpy. This is why I went for the Titanium version and I guarantee is similar comfortable to Nissan Qashqai or Renault Kadjar, with better handling.
- Space in the back is reasonable decent and the seats are ok in terms of comfort. Plus the nice feature with the reclining back ( which also can give additional space in the back if needed )
- Boot is pretty big and the boot floor can be adjusted to overcome the ridge when you fold the seats .
- You always complain about the location of the lever to fold the back seats. ( in this video and many others) That is quite a good idea not to have them in the boot, but rather back next to the seats. I see most cars have them in the boot with the recent models. Let me give you an example : with hands free boot opening, there are times when you want to put something in the boot but don't want to open the it , either because it takes 1 min to open and close or you cant because of your parking position. So you can fold the seats down from the back door ( in the Kuga at least ) and reach into the boot space an grab or put something.
- I like the seating position in the KUGA where you don't see the front of the car. Most cars don't have this. But this is personal. Either way when you park , you use the sensors :P
Kadjar is the best option ! Space inside is fantastic , price is fantastic, best choice 100% !
Have nothing against diesel (some are very clean, and run nicely!), but strange that the Nissan 1.5 diesel is 'recommended' when the Mayor of London's website (google "mayor of london newer vehicle checker") states that it emits up to 12 times more NOx than it should (roughly equivalent to two Euro6 buses), the Kadjar's diesel is not much better - and where a Tiguan diesel for example actually complies with Euro 6. Strange. (I think the answer might be SCR?).
It's interesting how 'dirty' in real-world on-road emission testing the popular Nissan/Renault diesels are! It's not such a big issue now, as a lot of customers of SUV's and CUV's are switching to petrol engines (ironically, until the recent mandated fitting of petrol particulate filters to direct injection petrol engines, they were actually very bad for micro-particles; and also petrol contains benzene, a known carcinogen...). But when fuel prices start rising again, the pendulum will swing the other way, and fuel guzzling petrol-engined SUV's will lose! People will want a clean 'economical' diesel with low CO2...!
Hello, this has been fixed in the newer versions of Nissan-Renault engines. Best regards.
The Pakistani mayor
Don't believe anything about a VW diesel. You not read the news
Qashqai looks best by far
put glasses
I have had two Renults and they have been amazing. My next car will be the Kadjar
Years ago renault Citroën and pugeout all got terrible reviews but they seem to have improved a lot skoda also..... I'm looking an suv and can't decide which love volvo but quite expensive
@@markjeffers4663 there is also the VW Tigaun which U heard is a great one
Try 2008 or 3008 for french cars
To me the Qashqai looked the best out of the three and packs a decent performance... I'd take it
Thanks for the review, I have just ordered the Kadjar - Stephen
Shitty car
Ali Express haha better than you’re leased car mate
Good choice
I feel sorry for you
Gonzo Gilberto why I’ve had one for just over a year, brilliant car fits all the family in, does its job pretty well, good fuel consumption you can’t complain for the price you can pick them up for
I bought the kadjar. Found it more comfortable and a nice drive. Spacious too
Sorry to break it down t u m8. But u bought a piece of s***
@@nourizakaria642 I dont think so mate. It's a nice car
Speaking of the Kuga, do you remember when Ford put a detuned version of the Focus ST’s 5 cylinder turbo engine into the first generation Kuga?
Yes, I have that Kuga, 2.5 petrol and recently add to her 60+HP and 80+NM, now it has 275 HP and 400 Nm, interested to see , leave you facebook on comment. And i intend to go for the full power of the Engine, 305 HP or the focus rs500 package of 345HP.
And also a Kuga rs is coming armed with a 2.3ecoboost engine. And 350 HP
Lex Luthor Do we even know if there will even be a Kuga RS coming yet?
In late 2019 it had been said. And yes Ford confirmed the model, it will be directly against Ateca Cupra and other sport crossover, they needed a sport version again.
Lol
Oops! we have recently ordered a kuga stx, 2 litre...but i prefer the look of it over the other two...
DrMoorehen I think it drives the best too...
DrMoorehen definitely. Kadjar looks dated and cheap in comparison with the other two.
I have had those three and the kuga is the best
DrMoorehen I have one. You won't be disappointed. I love it
Great car, you won’t be disappointed
If you wanted to test the kuga on comfort, you should of used a regular kuga because with the st-line designed to be more "sporty", ford decided to stiffen the suspension and I own a kuga and I can tell you that it is rather comfortable to drive.
dont like your pfp mate
I don’t get the hate for the Kuga/Escape, it’s a sharp looking vehicle.
My mom has a 2014 Escape/Kuga 2.5 and it’s a great driving little car. It’s not fast or sporty, but it handles very well and the interior has lots of features for the money. Comes standard with Bluetooth, usb, SD card, aux, backup camera, and nice multifunction display in the instrument cluster.
A true petrol-head Nissan is garbage
A true petrol-head I'm confused cos I've driven all three of these cars and the Kuga is by far the best to drive
Yes it looks good but it’s a very dated car with an interior way behind the rest of the competition, as Mat says in the review
A true petrol-head are you broken? This isn’t a 1990s car it’s a 2018 car and it is dated? What is your point?
We have a kuga, previous model and I think you can adjust the rear floor so it’ll level when you fold the rear seats
Yes he missed that
Fat nose
I don't live in the UK, but if I were in the market for one of these SUVs, definitely would go for the Kadjar. Cool looking and the most practical, that's really all I'd ever need.
FORD Kuga's have been spontaneously catching fire here in South Africa
Would definitely choose the Kadjar
I vote for kuga before watching the video.
can I just say for kuga has one of the best infotainment systems it big and can show nearest fuel tanks hospitals and it nabigarions it amazing plus get it in red and it is sleeekk asf
But the interior design is......
Bulbus, I think the word is
I would prefer the Kuga.
Kadjar 1200 CC T 130 HP - max speed achieved 205 KM/H
I am moving from Qashqai (QQ) to a Kuga. The Qashqai is just a raised car with tech thrown in to sell them to people that need the unnecessary tech. QQ size, and drive feel is 1/2 way between a car and an SUV. QQ and Renault are Semi SUV. Kuga is proper SUV, wider, longer, taller, more passenger space, more boot space. Handling is fine. Suspension is better, seating is better. It feels better built. K9K 1.5 diesel renault engine on my QQ was giving 70mpg on motorway and 50mpg combined. It is frugel and has enough torque and power on motorway. QQ drives like a smaller car than an SUV and will give a big saving on fuel and road tax. But having owned a QQ for 5 months, it was too small, and already feels like it will age quicker, engine exhaust noisier already. Kuga dorotorq is a stronger engine. Kuga for me all day long as it is just larger, more comfort, more practical, a better all round vehicle that fells like it will last. I really like the QQ but I really prefer a proper SUV than a car AND as SUVs go you Kugas are well priced, good bang for buck and can usually get a good deal with Ford. Also, Ford 1 year extended warranty was only £200. Go Qashqai type raised car if you want lowest running cost but less space. Go Kuga if you want more space, better safety with slightly higher but not excessive running cost.
I tried a few & bought the Kuga in a 2 litre diesel AWD, manual gearbox spec. Whilst by no means a proper 4x4, it’s capable of dealing with very poor potholed tracks, some mud & snow & sloping wet grass in a far better manner than a standard 2 wheel drive vehicle. It is sufficient for my off the tarmac needs without sacrificing decent fuel economy or on road handling in the way a dedicated off road 4x4 (which is capable of going far further into the wilderness than I require) would in 99% of my dat to day driving. Also servicing & repairs/ parts are reasonably priced compared to other makes (not that I’ve required the latter 2 yet) & it has the best load capacity of the 3 on test with the back seats down, which is what I need for a weeks fishing holiday with a car full of a friends & my kit to cover all river conditions we may encounter.
If the QQ were swapped for an X Trail with AWD, then I may be tempted, but the diesel on offer is only 1.7 litres and it’s a bit anaemic compared to the 2 litre in the Kuga; if Nissan would put a decent 2 litre diesel with around 180 - 200 bhp in the X Trail then it be a viable option for many people, particularly those who want to tow with it, which I don’t, but I know many who do.
Before watching
1)kadjar
2)qashqai
3)kuga

Nice vid. I have the Kadjar in Dynamique Nav spec. I thinks its the best balance of spec against pricing to be fair, and that tyre noise goes away with using the 17 inch deeper tyre over the standard 19 inch on the S spec model. Tyre choice will help as well as i have found. The 1.5 is a great balance of power and economy, and the unit is used in a whole host of platforms...including Mercedes...what does that tell you. Wth the extra length on the rear of Kadjar that gives you better boot space and a non step boot floor that helps loading, I recon its a Great value car in my opinion.
0:08 no doubt qashqai has the best looking
I test the Qashqai (the old, not the new), and Kuga and buy a Kuga in last year, for me is the best car (of that three), and i can buy the Kuga more cheaper that the other 2. ;)
I got a Kuga 67 plate i really like. Kuga is my winner.
Kuga is so much better. I have a Qashqai (QQ) and very soon changing to a (used) Kuga. The Qashqai 1.5 diesel does 70mpg +, mixed driving 50 to 60 mpg and I really like driving it but changing to Kuga for these reasons:- Kuga feels like a proper SUV not just a tall car. QQ and Renault are just tall cars. Kuga has more space everywhere. Kuga has better seats, is wider so less cramped in front -widthwise, much more legroom for rear passengers and much more boot space. Better engine on Kuga.. I have concerns about how good/strong the QQ engine is compared to the 2litre dutatorq in Kuga. older QQs diesels seem noisy and rattle like a bag of gravel, it may be economical but thats not everything, engine should be the least of my concerns but isn't on QQ. Better Suspension on Kuga. QQ has good suspension with low body roll, Kuga is noticably better on rough surfaces, about the same roll in corners. Paintwork, QQ paint looks very thin inside doors and on pillars. Chassis, Kuga looks better made underneath. QQ great to park, QQ already has a steering knock. Kuga is the largest SUV size that seems to fit most car park bays fairly easily. Kuga drives like the QQ just feels a little larger so driving experience fairly close. To me Kuga is the ideal 5 seater SUV car. Later Kuga models have reversing cameras but to be honest you don't "need" cameras. Fords/ Kuga are generally well priced and can always get a good deal with Fords. Nissan want to load their cars with tech and charge more for it but remember you are buying a car so the car specifics should take priority and the equipment second. If you just want a tall car with excellent economy and not a Kuga then consider QQ or Renault with the 1.5 dci (Renault K9K) engine gives 50mpg minimum town/ mixed and on a motorway between 60mph and 70mph, you will get 70 to 75mpg from these on motorway, yes they are that fuel efficient.
Im currently Driving The 2018 Qashqai and i love it its snappy comfortable economical b far one of my favourites 5 Stars from me
I´ve tested all of them 3 and 2 more cars (VW Tiguan and Dacia Duster). The most comfortable Car was the VW i have to say, but it also was the one with the highest Price. Dacia was the cheapest and the worst to drive for me. The Qashqai is a cool Looking car, but also the Kadjar. So which car did I buy? I choosed the Renault Kadjar (Facelift), which i could buy in the Zen Edition for 19000 Euro. Comfort is Top and I Love the Interieur, which is (for me) not too much punched up with technical Gadgets.
And to all Qashqai Drivers: Yes, you have also got a really good car!
And to all VW Drivers: Yes, you have the best driving compact SUV (for me), but it´s a Little bit too expensive.
And to all Dacia Drivers: Yes, you have the cheapest compact SUV, but it is not good…..
Have nice Holiday!
Old nissans where the best. Renault,never of my life. Maybe looks nice and some nice colours but i hate to drive them. And such awfull seats in in. It's pity actually. Renault, Citroen and Peugeot have had in sime of the models such comfy seats ....
Update my car has been in the dealership for 4 months. I have all the paperwork service and diagnostic reports etc etc to support my car engine was faulty before the point of purchase. The dealership, Nissan customer care & Nissan finance agree that the engine was indeed faulty before I bought the car. At the moment the dealership have to perform certain diagnostics on the engine to find out where the noise is coming from as the warranty company need this before they will sign off a new one. If you type 2014 Nissan Qashqai engine fault in a search engine take a look at the results I have no words.
I payed for an extended service plan after the complimentary ones ran out. In this service plan it says that I get a courtesy car while the car is being serviced I have had no car for 4 months.
The only thing stopping me from going directly to a solicitor is the lady at Nissan customer care she is an absolute credit to them. I honestly believe she is trying to help. So much red tape to get them to finally admit this known fault £19500 for a car that needs a new engine 3 years into a 4 year + finance package. I WILL not give up this fight. If you read this please like this post to help my plight.
I have heard there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Watch this space fingers crossed 🤞
Did you get sorted @winty 27
@@jakethesnake1138 No I gave it back I had no confidence in the car at all. Nissan customer care were an absolute joke. I was stitched up with that car right from the start. I lost the £9500 I invested into it. The dealership offered me a different Qashqai a 1.5 diesel Tekna a new finance deal I had a test drive and was one day away from collection. I changed my mind as I didn’t want to risk another 4 years finance in this current climate. So now no car at all. Can you imagine how I feel now so gutted. Nissan customer care DO NOT CARE. 1.2 digi t engines manufactured in 2014 are out there with known faults beware. The amount I now hear on the road ( now I have to walk 😂) with rattling timing chains is unreal. BEWARE OF 2014 ENGINES..
@@winty2721 Thanks for the heads up, sorry to hear of your situation but one good thing is its saved me buying one 👍 . . . I was in the market for one, now looking at various reviews I think ill give it a miss, apparently they are plagued with issues from mechanical to electrical. Real shame as they are a nice looking car for the money.
@@jakethesnake1138 I still think that a later model Qashqai is a great option. The Tekna is amazing with all the tech. I just wanted to warn people in regards to my experience with the 2014 model 1.2 Digi t. It’s a complete cover up what happened with this engine. If people just researched this they would realise. I trusted Nissan to sell me a fit for purpose car. How wrong was I they would not even repair if. It’s a disgrace how it ended for me. I know it’s a cliche but Karma has a funny way of working. I think I will have the last laugh one day.
Good luck with your choice. Just stay away from 2014 1.2 digi t. It’s the same engine in the pulsar which also has the same issues.
All the best thanks Jake
Kaizen principles in Nissan are supposed to form a basis of their whole work ethic and ethos. I never expected to have such a poor customer experience with them I am shocked that they can treat customers this way. Sorry for the rant still feel the pain 😡
The Qashqai, it's the original and still the best. Also made in Britain.
The test was about which one is the best and not about nationality of the car. Nissan is Japanese
good for short peoples only
I like the Kug the best, it just looks more like a SUV and not like a bigger hatchback
We have a 2017 Reg Kadjar Dynamic N Auto 15 diesel, I have had it now 5 years, at least 55 miles to the gallon general and town driving, road tax is £20, insurance very cheap, ULEZ compliant, depreciation is very small as it is not made anymore and is very desirable for people who want to do long journeys without worrying about the battery needing recharging. Big enough for a large dog in the boot. Just had a Qashqai as a courtesy car...its OK but glad to get the Kadjar back.
I have the same car - has done 67k miles and was going to chop it in for an MG HS but I just can't do it. I average around 58 MPG on motorways and the MG will return around 32. Im just going to stick with the kadjar and run it into the ground
@@andywilliams8563 nice to know we both picked the right car. We will be doing the same.😊
@@Julie36285 100% - i was offered 9k on trade in agianst an MG HS which was 19k. but i can't justify getting rid of the car and handing over 10k in cash for something I love driving. Needs timing belt doing next year but touch wood ive had no issues at all with the kadjar.

Good review just ordered a kadjar s edition
Signing for s edition auto diesel in iron blue tomorrow. Told car will be at UK import centre 24th Dec, collect 4th-10th Jan. Another dealer/salesman spun me a porky, the car he said was coming in did not exist. I was sus of him, decided to do some amateur sleuthology and got another dealer to check factory, French export centre and UK import centre. No entry found, car hasn't been built. His intention was to dangle me on a string because that car would not be available until 3rd week Feb! Difference tomorrow is salesman will show me on screen that he has got my name on it. I'll get the last laugh though, I did not leave deposit or cancel the reservation. He has emailed twice re "progress", I've emailed thanking him for keeping me updated. Come 3rd week in Feb, he will be left with car, a car he has told his manager that is sold. Hope he gets a boot in the goolies lol. No wonder people have passionate dislikes for car salesmen/women. Anyways, moving on. Present chariot is Captur gt line auto diesel, great car, only moan is rock solid seats. Changing to Kadjar I've a good idea what I'm getting. I'm sure you and Kadjar will get along fine. Just watch for sneaky well trained charlatans re delivery dates.
Cheers

@@parahandy6251 I always go straight and deal with Renault, will never ever go to a car dealer as such.With Renault this is my 3rd car and the beauty is they cant and wont spin you a story because they are made accountable, especially to head office Renault. Deal with Renault directly in future a lot less hassle.
@@sebastianbolt6905
Renault themselves are not much better. Salesman wanted to do application over phone. When I pointed out this was not possible, he apologised for his mistake..hmmm. In my experience, it doesn't matter who you are dealing with, they are all car salesmen, deperate to move metal at any cost (preferably highest), and will fill you full of bs.

Is it possible to see a review between Renault Kadjar and Nissan X trail?
No because they are in different size classes so not comparable
So the CX-5 is the winner .. got it :D
Jakub Velický the CX-5 has a good interior so would have been a good comparison
The CX-5 would have been a hands down winner. But Mazda dislike Matt and Carwow lol
Andrew W why is that? He’s mentioned it before but not said why
He once did a centre console wobble test with one of their cars where the centre console looked so bad it practically came off.
Kobe Purraxxus would you know which video by chance?
Nissan Qashqai - Made in UK
Renault Kadjar - Made in Spain
Ford Kuga - Made in Germany
Perhaps that puts the relative prices in context?
I'll see myself out.
Kuga better by far, didnt show full “flat floor” in boot when seats are down and “peculiar lip” is there for a purpose . 3 car comparison but 2 where basically badged different and a Kuga had a firm suspension because it was the Sporty ST Line model. Be nice to know what these reviewers are paid to say about the models
the kuga is firmer only in the st line, i ve driven the kouga vignale and it is much softer over bumps.
QQ and Renault are the same. Kuga is the better diesel engine/ car/ space combination. Used Kugas can be cheaper than QQs and Renault. For families with kids Kuga would be better option aswell.

I think I would get the Kia Sorento because you get a great discount from carwow and it feels well built (not that’s it’s on this video) what do you think mat? But if I chose out of these 3 it would Be the Ford Kuga
Nissan Qashqai ❤❤
Skip all 3. Go for Rav 4 or Tiguan.
You meant 3008
The quashquai gets my vote, stylish and the best looking car, has a lot of value!
Cant go past euro styling !! Kadjar gets my vote !
Have to agree.
But when I was in the market, I bought a Peugeot 3008 GT Line with grip control.
noisy car on the road.
Did i miss the Fuel consumption comparison or was that not covered??
I wouldn't buy any of these, I've had a 2015 Nissan Qashqai (basically the same thing as a Kadjar) and its 1.5 diesel was plagued with reliability issues and is poorly made all round, this became apparent from the month after I bought it, I also feel the Kuga was a half-assed attempt by Ford to get into the crossover segment, its ergonomically hampered and just not worth paying good money for. At the beginning of this year I bought a Hyundai Tucson and I would never go back, the 1.7 diesel is excellent, build quality and reliability have been excellent all round as well. Its slightly dull but its a great 'real car'. Plus the 5 year warranty and 5 year free servicing I was offered sealed the deal! Its Ireland's best selling car 2 years in a row for a reason!
My parents, who are happy to live with a car offering no acceleration whatsoever, ended up getting a Kia Sportage (Which is probably more similar to the Tucson than the Cashcow and the Codger are to eachother) after going shopping for a Tucson and finding that even by their standards it felt too wallowy and vague on the road for them to enjoy, with the difference ni feel purely down to the suspension setup.
The Koreans are doing a better job for the money than anyone else at the moment and they're not unreliable either and have great warranties - there was more left on the Kia's warranty second hand than you'll get buying new from most of the more established brands. They were warned off the Nissan Cashcow as they were told that even by built to a price small SUV standards it was underpowered, which also eliminated the Renault Codger.

Ford kuga for me
Kuga all day, it just looks and goes amazing...
The roll we see in the video is ridiculous, and still uncomfortable
It's a piece of crap with an interior from an old Fiesta.
Go for a Vignale model if you have the money, then you'll experience something like x3 ,q3 but sadly more reliable than the Germans , wich have lost alot of ground in therms of reliability. I own an X3 2.0d 2012 and my father a 2.5t Kuga also from 2012, and what can I say is that I put aaaaloooot alot of money into X3, first, the turbo wich cost me 1500$, second the catalyst system wich only to clean it cost me 700$, and overall , just not worth at all, that Kuga I used to laugh at her runs almost 200.000km and it didn't had a single problem, aand it was 4000$ cheaper than my X3........I really do consider a Kuga Vignale now as a new car, the reliability it has is just astonishing.

One thing you forgot - the quality of the parts in Nissan is higher than those in Renault i.e. Nissan won't brake in 7 years like the Renaoult and Ford

like before watching i like how u even compare the normal car not only expensive car and the u talk and ur sense of humor man u really deserve more than 1 million
I didn’t see any rear air vents in the Renault. In a warmer climate that’s a real let down for rear passengers, even if it has the most space.
Add to the comparison towing capacity. Ford with 2.0 ecoboost is 3500lbs in North America. In EU I think Qashqai rating is higher than NA, but it's not clear. Can you confirm the specs?
I got a Renault Kadjar GT LIne on the back of this video and I think its great - Hopefully they can reshoot this video for 2021 models.
Excuse me but isnt the qashqai at 430lt boot and the kuga at 442lt? did something change from the info i got on your site? i am a bit confused at 6:10 of this video

The only thing I don’t like about the Kadjar is that it’s the only one of the three available in the UK WITHOUT a heated windscreen. It’s a major oversight on their part. If they and Nissan share mechanicals why not the thermaclear windscreen on the Qashqai?
