The current Nissan Qashqai can tow up to 1,800 kg braked. Figures below are the strongest variant in each generation — lighter trims and engines tow less.
Unbraked (no trailer brakes): 750 kg.
| Years | Braked | Unbraked |
|---|---|---|
| 2007–2008 | 1,400 | 740 |
| 2008–2014 | 1,400 | 750 |
| 2014–present | 1,800 | 750 |
| 2017–2021 | 2,000 | 750 |
Towing capacity is the manufacturer-rated maximum for the model's strongest variant in each generation, not an average across trims — a base engine will tow less than the figure shown. Cars with an implausible source-data towing figure relative to their own kerb weight are excluded rather than shown with a guessed correction.
