New Hybrid System for Nissan Rogue
Nissan is introducing a new version of its Rogue SUV, featuring the latest iteration of its e-Power hybrid system. This system will be available in the 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid.
Series Hybrid Operation
Unlike parallel hybrids where both the internal combustion engine and electric motor can drive the wheels, the e-Power system is a series hybrid. In this configuration, the 1.5 L, three-cylinder turbocharged direct-injection engine generates 148 hp (110 kW) and operates solely as a generator to charge a 1.67 kWh lithium-ion traction battery. The engine is optimized for charging, achieving 42 percent thermal efficiency.
The charged battery then powers a pair of electric motors. A front permanent synchronous magnet motor provides 202 hp (150 kW) and 243 lb-ft (330 Nm), while a rear PSM delivers 134 hp (100 kW) and 144 lb-ft (195 Nm). The combined power output for the vehicle is 225 hp (168 kW). Regenerative braking is also incorporated to return energy to the battery.

Reporting from
Nissan is launching a new version of its Rogue SUV with the e-Power series hybrid system. This system uses a gasoline engine solely as a generator to charge a battery, which then powers electric motors, differing from parallel or series-parallel hybrids where the engine can also directly drive the wheels.
