The Nissan Qashqai 360 has all the right connections.
In keeping with the technology crammed into the latest version of the sector-defining crossover, Qashqai fans can now experience what the 360 has to offer using their smart phones.
By using Shazam, the leading media engagement app, anyone watching the Qashqai’s brand new TV advert can jump straight to a new mobile site dedicated to the 360 from the comfort of their living room.
As well as the full story of the car, the site also features unique content, including a game allowing players to drive and park a digital Qashqai against the clock using a simulation of Around View Monitor, an innovative system which uses four cameras to give drivers a 360° ‘helicopter view’. The fastest times recorded in the game will go forward to a European-wide contest to find the most nimble-fingered virtual Qashqai driver.
The mobile site can also be accessed by anyone who sees a Qashqai 360 advert in print, simply by scanning a unique QR code.
Highlighting Nissan’s ongoing commitment to producing innovation that excites, the advanced Qashqai 360 is packed with technology allowing it to be truly connected to the city.
Qashqai 360 features include the Nissan Connect communications system that integrates satellite navigation with audio controls, Apple iPod connectivity and, using Bluetooth, the driver’s mobile phone.
Having been unveiled for the first time at the Paris Motor Show in September 2012, Qashqai 360 goes on sale across Europe in January 2013. It builds on the strengths of the current range of which more than 1.4 million have been built to date. The 360 package is available across all engine and transmission options and can be specified in both Qashqai and Qashqai+2 body styles.
