Nissan X-TRAIL e-POWER available in ST-L, Ti and Ti-L grades. X-TRAIL Ti-L shown throughout.
e-POWER technology uses a high-output electric motor to exclusively drive the wheels, with the petrol engine generating the required electricity. The result is a smooth and responsive driving experience. This is different to a conventional hybrid, where the petrol engine and electric motor can both directly power the wheels.

e-POWER uses a petrol engine to charge a battery and that alone drives an electric motor, powering the wheels. In addition to the petrol engine, e-POWER also uses regenerative braking to help keep the battery topped up.
Discover a new driving experience without changing your habits. Keep using fuel but enjoy a responsive EV-like driving experience.
You don’t need to plug-in an e-POWER vehicle. The petrol engine produces energy that charges the battery when the vehicle needs it. The petrol engine produces energy that can either be directly supplied to the electric motor or to recharge the battery. The electric motor alone drives the vehicle's wheels.
Unlocked through Nissan’s e-Pedal Stepᵉᵖ², the regenerative braking system on e-POWER converts kinetic energy from deceleration into electrical energy, and feeds it back to the battery.
In daily driving, e-POWER utilises an electric motor that is directly connected to the wheels, providing maximum torque from the start for low to mid-range speeds. When it needs charging, the fuel-powered engine generates electricity to charge the battery — powering an electric motor.
When the battery needs charging, e-POWER vehicles do not need to be plugged in to charge. The fuel-powered engine only charges the battery and does not directly drive the wheels. The battery, in turn, powers the electric motor, allowing for a seamless and smooth drive.

With the flick of a switch, you can activate e-Pedal Step ᵉᵖ²: a single pedal for accelerating and braking. e-Pedal Step ᵉᵖ² removes the need to jump between two pedals in stop- start traffic, or when driving uphill.
e-4ORCE all wheel drive technology is available on Nissan X-TRAIL e-POWER ST-L, Ti and Ti-L grades.

With two electric motors — one at either end of the car — weight distribution is near perfect, helping to further stabilise the vehicle body. Both motors support regenerative braking, working in sync for a smooth ride.
e-4ORCE all-wheel drive controls torque and braking for each wheel individually, prioritising those with the most grip to assure uphill ascents and reduces the effects of over- and under-steer ᵉᵖ¹.
The e-4ORCE system reacts up to 10,000 times per second, constantly adapting to changing conditions and tricky terrain to help bring you confidence behind the wheel.
ᵉᵖ¹ e-4ORCE is a driver’s aid only and should not be used as a substitute for safe driving practices. Always monitor your surroundings when driving.
ᵉᵖ² e-Pedal Step may not be suitable under all driving conditions, correct operation is the responsibility of the driver.
ep3 Fuel consumption and emissions as per ADR 81/02 (combined cycle) and to be used for vehicle comparison purposes only. Results produced in laboratory test conditions using sample vehicles without any accessories fitted. It is unlikely that these fuel consumption and emissions figures will be achieved in real world driving conditions. Actual fuel consumption and emissions will depend on many factors including driving style, use of heating/cooling, prevailing conditions and the vehicle’s equipment, load, condition and use.
