Nissan Hybrid e-POWER

Hybrid e-POWER technology uses a high-output electric motor to exclusively drive the wheels, with the petrol engine generating the required electricity. The result is a smooth and responsive driving experience. This is different to a conventional hybrid, where the petrol engine and electric motor can both directly power the wheels.

An EV-like driving experience without ever needing to plug in

Hybrid e-POWER uses a petrol engine to charge a battery and that alone drives an electric motor, powering the wheels. In addition to the petrol engine, e-POWER also uses regenerative braking to help keep the battery topped up.

Recharges on the go

You don’t need to plug-in a Hybrid e-POWER vehicle. The petrol engine produces energy that charges the battery when the vehicle needs it. The petrol engine produces energy that can either be directly supplied to the electric motor or to recharge the battery. The electric motor alone drives the vehicle’s wheels.

works braking

Regenerative braking

Unlocked through Nissan’s e-Pedal Stepᵉᵖ², the regenerative braking system on Hybrid e-POWER converts kinetic energy from deceleration into electrical energy, and feeds it back to the battery.

Hybrid e-POWER explained

In daily driving, Hybrid e-POWER utilises an electric motor that is directly connected to the wheels, providing maximum torque from the start for low to mid-range speeds. When it needs charging, the fuel-powered engine generates electricity to charge the battery — powering an electric motor.

epower hybrid 01

When the battery needs charging, Hybrid e-POWER vehicles do not need to be plugged in to charge. The fuel-powered engine only charges the battery and does not directly drive the wheels. The battery, in turn, powers the electric motor, allowing for a seamless and smooth drive.

All your questions answered

In the Nissan Hybrid e-POWER, the wheels are only ever provided power by the electric motor –and this electric motor is provided power by a combination of the VC-Turbo petrol engine and lithium ionbattery.

In an 100% electric vehicle, the motor driving the wheels is only provided power by a large lithium ionbattery, which you have to plug in to charge. With a fully electric vehicle you experience zero emissions while driving.

In a traditional hybrid vehicle, power can be provided to the wheels by the engine, the electric motor or a combination of the both. The battery that provides power to the motor is recharged by the engine.

As power is provided to the wheels in different ways, depending on the powertrain, the way the vehicle drives will vary. Hybrid e-POWER gives the feeling of driving an electric vehicle, without the need to plug in.

The components that make up the Hybrid e-POWER powertrain consists of:

– An Electric motor that drives the wheels
– A Lithium-Ion battery which powers the electric motor
– An internal combustion engine which generates energy for the battery and electric motor
– A Power Generator which converts mechanical energy to electrical energy
– An Inverter which manages the energy recieved from the engine to charge the Lithium-Ion battery and/or power the electric motor

Thanks to some clever technology, your Hybrid e-POWER vehicle will automatically activate the internal combustion engine when the charge level of the Lithium-Ion battery drops below a certain level.

You can check on the status of the Hybrid e-POWER powertrain via the energy flow diagram in the vehicle’s combimeter which will display when the engine is activated, the battery charging state and more

Hybrid e-POWER is available with e-4ORCE all wheel drive technology for X-TRAIL.
