With e-Power, you get the driving feel of an EV without any of the range anxiety.
A redesigned Nissan Rogue Sport is headed to U.S. showrooms shortly, but the new generation of the popular compact crossover has already been on sale overseas for the past year, where it is known as a Qashqai.
E-Power is Nissan's name for extended-range EVs , like the Karma Revero and BMW i3 REx. These are EVs where the battery is charged on the go via a combination of energy regeneration and a small internal-combustion engine serving purely as a generator, a 1.5-liter turbocharged inline-3 in the case of the Qashqai E-Power.
The benefit is that you get the efficiency and driving feel of an EV, but without the range anxiety. And since the engine operates only as a generator, most of the time it will operate at an rpm level optimized for efficiency and smoothness.
