Oh, and it has a stupid name.

The "stupid name" part immediately suggests the
Qashqai, but that's a tall hatch / wagon / crossover / SUV; their only sedans are the Sentra, Altima, and Maxima. It's only new to North America. To be fair to someone at Nissan who chose "Qashqai", Nissan's Infiniti line is even worse: all models have the same name ("Q"), distinguished only by a nearly random number following, and an "X" for SUV-like vehicles. They even changed the name of the same vehicle from "QX56" to "QX80", ensuring that no one has a clue what the name means.
Nissan's ads are more ridiculous to me than the average, but no worse than many truck ads. But now I need to watch for this construction zone ad...
