Foreign Influence
While Essex Fords have made their mark in the British car scene, it’s important to recognize the contributions of Japanese automakers like Nissan and Toyota. Since the downfall of British Leyland, these brands have been producing reliable and affordable vehicles that have captured the hearts of many.
One notable example is the Nissan Qashqai, introduced in 2007. Praised for its capability, likability, and unique approach to family transport, the Qashqai quickly became a popular choice worldwide. Its innovative design, crafted at Cranfield and assembled in Sunderland, has influenced the trend of taller mainstream models in the industry.
