Nissan Banks on Hybrid EV Technology Amid Financial Struggles

Struggling Japanese automaker Nissan is pinning its hopes on its new “e-Power” hybrid technology to reverse its $4.5 billion fiscal loss from the previous year. Unlike conventional hybrids, e-Power vehicles run exclusively on an electric motor powered by a gasoline engine, ensuring a quiet, smooth ride without the need for external charging. This technology is already available in models such as the Qashqai and X-Trail in Europe, and the Note in Japan, and will soon be introduced in the U.S. Rogue model. AP News
