The 2016 Nissan Qashqai range of configurations is currently priced from $9,800.
Our most recent review of the 2016 Nissan Qashqai resulted in a score of 6 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Craig Jamieson had this to say at the time: If Nissan had only paid a little more time and attention to the interior materials and NVH isolation, the Qashqai could be at the forefront of its segment. But, because proper NVH isolation appears to elude Nissan (and so many other manufacturers), its small SUV has to make do with a mediocre finish.

This is what Craig Jamieson liked most about this particular version of the Nissan Qashqai: Smooth engine and CVT combo, Decent handling and ride, Suitability for the daily doldrums of inner-city driving
The 2016 Nissan Qashqai carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1400 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Nissan Qashqai is also known as Nissan Dualis (Japan and Australia, 1st gen.), Nissan Rogue Sport (United States, 2nd gen.) in markets outside Australia.
The Nissan Qashqai 2016 prices range from $10,560 for the basic trim level SUV ST (4X2) to $21,010 for the top of the range SUV TL.
Diesels work at their best when they're running fully warmed-up and for long periods. If you aren't doing a reasonable amount of kilometres you can have trouble with the DPF system in the car, which can become clogged and require servicing to clear it. In your situation, doing very short trips to and from work each day I would buy the petrol variant.
The Trax is good value for money and stacks up well against all comers in the class. The 1.4 turbo is the best engine, and it has a conventional auto instead of a CVT that most of its rivals have. Others to look at are the Suzuki S-Cross, Ford Kuga, Nissan Qashqai, Mazda CX-5 and Subaru XV.
I am reluctant to recommend any European car, particularly those from VW, because of the problems that have soured the ownership experience for so many people. Rather than those you name I would be looking at the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V or Suzuki Vitara.
