Will a Nissan Qashqai fit your garage or parking space?

Almost nobody searches for a car's length out of curiosity. They are working out whether it clears a garage door, whether the doors will open in a supermarket bay, or whether it will hang over the end of a driveway. Here is the Nissan Qashqai measured against the two spaces that usually decide it.

Standard parking bay (2.40 m × 4.80 m)

Length spare: 38 cm
Gap each side: 28 cm

It sits inside the marked box, so the usual constraint is the car next to you rather than the bay itself. The side gap is reasonable before mirrors are counted.

Typical single garage (2.40 m × 5.00 m inside)

Length spare: 58 cm
Gap each side: 28 cm

The reference garage is the same 2.40 m wide as a marked bay, so the side gap matches — but here it is a wall, not a car that might have parked badly. The length works on paper, but that spare is shared between the door and whatever is stored at the back. Older UK garages are frequently narrower and shorter than this.

Read the width figure carefully

The 1,835 mm above is body width with the mirrors excluded, which is how manufacturers publish it. Mirrors add a meaningful amount on each side — enough to turn a comfortable garage into a folded-mirror one — so treat every side-clearance figure on this page as a best case. The bay and garage sizes are common UK conventions, not regulations: bays are marked differently from car park to car park, and garage interiors vary by decade of build. Measure your own opening before you buy.

Height is rarely the problem in the UK: the tallest car in this dataset is still under 1.75 m, so a height-barrier car park is normally only an issue once a roof box or bike carrier is on top. The Nissan Qashqai stands 1,625 mm unladen without them.

How the Nissan Qashqai compares to other suvs

Averaged across the 15 suv models we hold full dimension data for. Averages are computed from the same committed figures shown on every page in this cluster — nothing is modelled or estimated.

Nissan Qashqai versus the average suv in the MOT Checkup dimensions dataset.
Measurement	Nissan Qashqai	Average suv	Difference
Length	4,425 mm	4,438 mm	13 mm shorter
Width	1,835 mm	1,845 mm	10 mm narrower
Height	1,625 mm	1,629 mm	4 mm lower
Kerb weight	1,410 kg	1,476 kg	66 kg lighter
Boot	504 litres	503 litres	1 litres bigger

Across every model in the dataset the Nissan Qashqai is the 15th longest of 40 and the 9th biggest boot. Within suvs alone it is 9 of 15 on length and 7 of 15 on boot space.

Nissan Qashqai Euro NCAP rating

Size and weight are not a safety rating — crash protection is measured, not inferred from a kerb weight. Since anyone sizing up a car is usually weighing both, here is the tested result: the Nissan Qashqai scored 5 stars when Euro NCAP tested it in 2021.

Adult: 91%
Child: 91%
Pedestrian: 70%
Safety assist: 95%

Euro NCAP protocols tighten over time, so a rating from an earlier year is not directly comparable with a newer one.

Nissan Qashqai dimensions — FAQ

What are the dimensions of a Nissan Qashqai?

The Nissan Qashqai measures 4,425 mm long, 1,835 mm wide and 1,625 mm tall — 4.42 m by 1.83 m by 1.63 m. Kerb weight is 1,410 kg and the boot holds 504 litres with the rear seats up. The width figure is the body only: door mirrors are not counted, so the space you actually need on a driveway or in a garage is wider than the number above.

How big is the Nissan Qashqai boot?

The Nissan Qashqai has a 504 litres boot with the rear seats in place. That is 1 litres more than the average suv in our data (503 litres across 15 models). It ranks 9 of 40 models we hold dimension data for. Boot volumes are quoted by manufacturers using different methods (VDA versus SAE, seats up versus seats down), so use the figure to shortlist rather than to settle an argument — and if a specific pushchair or dog crate has to fit, take it to the car.

Will a Nissan Qashqai fit in a standard UK garage?

A typical modern UK single garage is about 2.40 m wide and 5.00 m long inside. Against that, the Nissan Qashqai leaves about 58 cm of length spare and roughly 28 cm either side of the body. Mirrors eat into that side gap, and many older UK garages are narrower and shorter than the modern figure, so measure the actual opening and internal walls rather than trusting a standard.

Does the Nissan Qashqai fit in a standard parking bay?

UK parking bays are commonly marked at 2.40 m by 4.80 m. The Nissan Qashqai sits inside it with about 38 cm to spare on length, and leaves about 28 cm either side of the body. Bay sizes vary between car parks and older town-centre sites are often marked smaller.

How much does a Nissan Qashqai weigh?

Kerb weight is 1,410 kg — the car with all fluids and a nominal fuel load, but no driver, passengers or luggage. That is 66 kg lighter than the average suv in our data. Kerb weight is not the same as gross vehicle weight, which includes the maximum load the car is plated to carry — that figure is on the VIN plate, usually inside a door shut or under the bonnet.

Are these Nissan Qashqai figures the same for every model year?

No. The figures on this page are for the most common UK specification of the Nissan Qashqai and are representative rather than variant-exact. Generations change size — a nameplate usually grows when it is replaced — and trim, wheel size, roof rails and body style all move the numbers. For the exact car in front of you, check the handbook or the manufacturer's brochure for that model year. Last reviewed August 2026.
