The first generation Nissan Qashqai was known as the Nissan Dualis in Australia and Japan and towards the end of it's model life, was a big seller for the company here.

When the second generation was launched, Nissan Australia dropped the Dualis badge and went with the global name 'Qashqai'. So far, sales haven't reached the heights of the Dualis, but sales have picked up in the past few months.

Renault's recently launched Renault Kadjar, which is based on the Nissan Qashqai, has not been confirmed by Renault Australia to be sold here, but with Australia's huge appetite for anything SUV, I won't be surprised if it's eventually sold here.
