Hi xaote, yes mine is the higher powered version. Tried sport mode for a short time and apart from it weighting the steering up I didn’t notice a difference, nor whilst pulling away either, so still sluggish.
I am ‘running it in’ so to speak still and haven’t gone over 3k revs yet, now on 220 miles.
Might need to revisit my hot hatch days to get away more effectively from roundabouts etc?!

Good question. Anyone with the 140bhp version who experiences the sluggishness pulling away?
Sounds a lot like my Karoq which suprise suprise was brand new model and was 1.5tsi engine that was affected. Seems Nissan have put a car out without full testing? https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/4 ... -in-first/
Before Skoda Karoq SEL, virtual dash, heated screen.
I haven’t noticed any sluggy behaviour. My old car didn’t have any oomph so maybe that’s why. I find I have had to be careful with the QQ Incase I take off from a junction!

Which version engine do u have minicat? 138bhp or 158?
Not noticed it as much today, but have noticed it’s just as likely in 2nd gear, basically pretty lifeless until above 1750 rpm. Maybe I’m subconsciously used to it or driving around it a bit ie using more revs. Definitely not what I’d consider ‘right’ though.
