Nissan has given the Qashqai small SUV a comprehensive makeover for 2025, debuting sharper exterior styling, connected services, upgraded cabin technology, and a new N-Design flagship.
Set to arrive in showrooms shortly, the updated Qashqai range is six-strong, with adjusted grade names to align it with Nissan’s larger SUVs.
Pricing has remained steady across the board, although Nissan has confirmed discounted launch pricing for the 2025 Qashqai ST and ST-L. The base ST will start from $32,665 before on-road costs until April 30 – a $2000 saving compared to the ongoing retail price.

Stepping up one trim grade, the ST-L will start at $37,665 plus on-roads, before becoming $1000 dearer from May onwards.
The new flagship N-Design e-Power wears a price tag of $54,365 before on-road costs, making it the most expensive Qashqai ever sold in Australia. It features body-coloured exterior trim, 20-inch alloy wheels, and a mix of Alcantara and synthetic leather interior accents.
All variants are equipped with Nissan’s latest 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, which is complemented by an identically sized digital instrument cluster from the Ti grade upwards. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is now standard.
The 2025 Nissan Qashqai debuts Nissan’s Connected Car Services (CCS) in Australia, giving owners mobile access to key vehicle information including health and status reports, trip history and any vehicle disturbances.
Changes for the facelift don’t extend to the mechanical package. The Qashqai continues to be offered with the choice of a turbocharged four-cylinder engine or a turbo three-cylinder paired with Nissan’s e-Power hybrid system.
