Nissan bringing e-POWER version of Rogue to US and Canada

Nissan announced that the US and Canada will see more than 10 new and refreshed products in key segments, including next-gen EV and hybrid technology and INFINITI models. In FY25, the US and Canada will be the first markets to launch the all-new Nissan LEAF, joining Ariya in the brand’s EV portfolio.

In FY26, production of the all-new, fourth-generation Rogue will begin. The model will be the first to offer Nissan’s innovative e-POWER technology (earlier post) to consumers in the US and Canada. Nissan will also offer Rogue with a powerful and efficient internal combustion engine, as well as a plug-in hybrid model, providing a diverse range of powertrains to shine in the market's most popular vehicle segment.

Nissan’s third-generation e-POWER will benefit from the learnings of more than 1.6 million produced units since the technology was first introduced in 2016. (Earlier post.)

The third-generation e-POWER system delivers notable improvements in efficiency where it is targeted to provide up to 15% enhancement in economy at high speeds compared to the current, second-generation system. It will also deliver lower emissions and enhanced refinement through reduced noise and vibration.

A unique Nissan technology, e-POWER uses a small capacity gasoline engine and lithium-ion battery to power an electric motor. As the electric motor alone drives the wheels, the result is an EV-like driving experience, characterized by powerful and responsive acceleration paired with quiet operation.

Central to the advancement is the adoption of a new 1.5-liter e-POWER dedicated engine and the new 5-in-1 system, which shares core components with Nissan's latest EV powertrain.

Gen 3 LEAF. Reimagined as a sleek and spacious family-friendly crossover, the third-generation all-new Nissan LEAF pairs substantial improvements in aerodynamics with a more advanced EV architecture.

As a first for the iconic EV nameplate, the all-new LEAF will be available with 19-inch alloy wheels and a panoramic moonroof. For the North American market, a NACS charging port is also integrated—the first time for a Nissan EV—enabling convenient access to the Tesla Supercharger network.

The all-new LEAF sits on Nissan’s modular CMF-EV platform (which debuted with the Ariya). Efficient energy management, streamlined packaging and enhanced driving performance from Nissan's new 3-in-1 EV powertrain, are expected to help deliver significant range improvements over the previous generation.
