Is it necessary to use premium fuel in a Nissan Qashqai?

I just purchased a Nissan Qashqai and I'm wondering if I need to use premium fuel for optimal performance. I've heard conflicting opinions, so I'm not sure what to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

It is not necessary to use premium fuel in a Nissan Qashqai. The vehicle is designed to run on regular unleaded fuel and will still perform well. However, if you want to optimize fuel economy and performance, premium fuel may offer those benefits.

As a mechanic, I've seen customers use all types of fuel in their Nissan Qashqai with no issues. However, using premium fuel can provide better engine performance and reduce the risk of engine knocking. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide if the benefits outweigh the cost.

I have been driving a Nissan Qashqai for years and have always used regular unleaded fuel. I've never had any issues with performance or engine knocking. If you want to save some money, stick with regular fuel.
