Nissan has introduced its third-generation e-POWER powertrain, a unique electric-drive hybrid system that combines an electric motor with a gasoline engine, providing an EV-like experience with the convenience of an onboard engine for battery charging. The new system features a purpose-built engine designed specifically for e-POWER applications, which optimizes power generation and improves fuel efficiency. The "5-in-1" modular approach integrates five key components, including the motor, reducer, inverter, increaser, and generator, to enhance performance, reduce energy loss, and improve quietness. This design allows for higher output, increased efficiency, and improved acceleration, making the third-generation e-POWER system a significant upgrade over its predecessors.
