Nissan has signed Australian netball star Gretel Tippett as an official ambassador.
Tippett provides Nissan with ambassador representation in all east coast capital cities. She is driving a top-spec Nissan Qashqai Ti and says she is enjoying its impressive fuel economy and space.
“I absolutely love the Qashqai, it’s so smooth to drive and amazing on petrol. I only have to fill up once a week which is unheard of for me because I do a lot of driving given I train in Brisbane and live between Brisbane and the Gold Coast,” Tippett says.
“I feel very fortunate and over the moon to be an ambassador for Nissan – a globally recognised brand that makes incredible cars.”
Tippett says her father had a Nissan Navara, and the family car for many years was a Nissan Pathfinder.
“Nissan is committed to netball, we have a strong at-court and online presence and Gretel will assist with our off-court activiations – particularly in Queensland,” Nissan Australia marketing director Geraldine Davys says.
Nissan has been a major partner of Netball Australia and Suncorp Super Netball for the past three years.
The Nissan Qashqai is available in four grades, including the entry ST, new ST+, the mid-spec ST-L and the Ti, which Tippett is driving. It has six airbags, front and rear sensors and an assortment of Nissan intelligent mobility technologies such as emergency braking with forward collision warning, blind spot monitoring and around-view monitor.
The Qashqai is priced from $37,990.
