e-POWER is Nissan’s proprietary innovation that combines an 100% electric motor with a petrol engine to charge the battery, with no plug-in charging. And it’s award-winning for good reason!
It derives its technology from the all-new Nissan LEAF, the innovative mass market 100% electric vehicle, with nearly 500,000 units sold globally. And different to the BEV power system, e-POWER includes a gasoline engine with a power generator, an inverter, a battery, and an electric motor.
The Technology driving e-POWER1
The e-POWER system features full electric-motor drive, meaning that the wheels are completely driven by the electric motor. The power from a high-output battery is delivered to the e-POWER’s compact powertrain comprised of a gasoline engine, power generator, inverter, and a motor.
e-POWER benefits2:
- The e-POWER system allows you to enjoy all the benefits of an EV, without the need to externally charge.
- e-POWER delivers massive torque almost instantly, which enhances drive response and results in smooth acceleration.
- The system delivers the much-loved ‘EV- silence’ when driving.
Want to try e-POWER3?
The best way to feel the benefits of e-POWER technology for yourself is to get behind the wheel and try it! Newly launched in Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia, the stunning all-new Nissan Kicks e-POWER makes these one of the first markets worldwide to a model with e-POWER.
