Nissan Electric & Hybrid Cars

The e-POWER system from Nissan allows you to enjoy the driving experience of an EV with the versatility of a traditionally powered vehicle.

Using technology perfected in EVs like the LEAF, e-POWER uses an electric motor to drive the wheels of the vehicle with the same high output as a full EV, but uses an ICE to charge the battery rather than an external charger. In a conventional hybrid system, the wheels are driven by an electric motor and a ICE engine; however, with e-POWER the engine only charges the battery and is not connected to the wheels. Due to the size of the motor needed for such a system, it has been difficult to implement such a system in the past but Nissan cracked the code, minimising weight and allowing e-POWER to deliver the instant torque driving experience that EV drivers love with a battery smaller than the one found in the LEAF.

Nissan has developed an advanced mild hybrid technology to take your driving experience to the next level. Mild hybrids enhance the engine's power with an efficient battery for support. Its regeneration system captures kinetic energy while the car is slowing down or coasting.

Plus, innovative stop-start technology also shuts off the engine under speeds of 11mph to optimise fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.  While driving, the battery recharges to give your efficiency an additional boost.

With a bigger battery and electric motor, Nissan’s hybrid technology gives you the best of both worlds for an exciting electrified ride. 

Hybrid cars use pure electric power, petrol, or both to get the best performance and fuel efficiency. All you have to do is start your journey, and Nissan’s driving systems optimise the energy automatically. 

Another feature of a Nissan hybrid car is its innovative e-Pedal Step, which allows you to drive using just one pedal. Activate this feature, and as you lift your foot off the accelerator, the car uses its regenerative brakes to slow you down.

Join the electric car revolution with Nissan’s advanced EV technology powering your drive. 

With years of experience in producing electric cars under their belt, you have access to vehicles that offer lower running costs, better range and exciting rides. 

Electric cars in the Nissan range store energy in rechargeable batteries, so all you have to do is plug in at home or at a charge point to reap the benefits. As a result, each model provides a quiet and efficient drive. Best of all, you’ll feel the instant torque as soon as you hit the accelerator – all with no emissions at the exhaust.
