Nissan's Next-Gen Hybrids Are Actually EREVs

  • Nissan is introducing Extended-Range Electric Vehicles (EREVs) with its 'e-Power' hybrid system that has no physical connection between the gas engine and the wheels.
  • The third-generation e-Power system will debut in the redesigned 2026 Rogue small crossover.
  • The second-generation e-Power is already in the Qashqai crossover, popular in Europe.
  • Nissan will launch a plug-in hybrid version of the current Rogue this year, using a traditional 'parallel' hybrid system.
  • Nissan's EREV system differs from other hybrids by using electric motors solely for propulsion, with the gas engine generating electricity.
  • Unlike planned products with large batteries for over 100 miles of EV range, Nissan's system does not need such a large battery.
  • Nissan circumvents the need for larger batteries in EREVs by allowing the gas engine to send power directly to the motor.
  • The third-generation e-Power system offers a smoother torque curve, providing a more predictable driving experience.
  • The 2026 Rogue PHEV will have an e-Power system with a larger battery, offering around 42 miles of range.
  • Nissan's push into EREVs comes at a crucial time as the company aims to revamp its lineup and regain market share.
