In my opinion its def a better designed exterior. The inside is exactly the same. When i purchased my versa, i used to bug the dealer every time i would take it in
to get serviced, asking when are they going to get the qashqai, The response i would get is, "Whaaaaa?". Ha, not knowing it was the rogue. I eventually purchased the rogue. I even considered importing one. A qashai, or dualis in other markets.

I'm visiting the Dominican Republic, and what they have here is the Qashqai but with left hand side driving. They are better looking when you're close.

Later this month Nissan will unveil the Terra, a fuel-cell-powered crossover concept, at the Paris Motor Show. Motor Trend Magazine just posted a sneak peak. What do you think? http://bit.ly/TZexZQ

From Motor Trend Magazine: The Terra, which is about 1-2 inches larger than the current Nissan Juke in every exterior dimension, is powered by a hydrogen fuel cell stack, which generates electricity for a driveline essentially ripped straight from the battery-electric Nissan Leaf. But to give the Terra off-road (or all-weather) chops, Nissan installed an in-wheel motor in each of the rear wheels, making the Terra an all-wheel-drive vehicle. As with all in-wheel motor setups, giving the Terra torque vectoring – like what’s offered in the all-wheel drive Juke — is as simple as sending a little more electricityto an outside wheel motor in a corner.

Nissan also says that the in-wheel motors allow the Terra to have powered rear wheels with a completely flat floor. That flat floor should come in handy, as Nissan envisioned the Terra as something of an urban/suburban runabout, a car that can handle all-weather situations but isn’t intended for true off-roading. Still, the flat floor and hatchback should make it easy to carry things like bikes or kayaks.
