Nissan rains supreme on watertight testing of crossovers

Duración: 01m 48s

You wouldn't put your car in a dishwasher, but that's exactly what Nissan does with every new model it launches. Of course, you can't fit an actual Qashqai crossover in a kitchen appliance? which is why Nissan's European Technical Centre has a scaled-up version that can house a full-sized vehicle. Thousands of litres of water are sprayed at the exterior of a car from every angle, and the process is accompanied by a fingertip inspection to ensure the highest quality in waterproof sealing. Also known as the monsoon test for obvious reasons, it takes place several times during the engineering development of all cars and vans, right across Nissan's wide range.
