    Looks like quite a nice car but the powertrain is entirely cynical, and designed to attract people who just think "it's electric so it must be economical". Of course it's not very economical as it's effectively a mild hybrid. The battery harvests energy from braking to give it a little help and even drive fully electric for a mile or two at slow speeds. But all the rest of the tractive power is coming from the petrol engine, just being routed through a generator and inverter to the electric motors rather than a gearbox. It doesn't even run the engine at a constant optimum speed for economy - notice how the engine works harder as Vicky puts her foot down. This is because almost none of the electricity is going into the battery (it can't, because the battery is too small), it's going straight through to the electric motors. The laws of physics have not been suspended in this car - IT RUNS ON PETROL and it's going to use just as much of the stuff as it would if it had a conventional mild hybrid drivetrain.

      You make the typical mistake to project your own beliefs to other people. It is certainly not "cynnical". Many people look for EVs not because of economy but for other reasons. Myself for instance - I love the dynamics the Electric powerttrain gives. The lack of gears. The acceleration. And Nissan's e-power gives just that. The ICE does not drive the wheels. Pure electric drive. And that is combined with lack of the major drawbacks of EVs - low travel range, need to find charging stations, long charging time. So it is quite an interesting alternative. Not cynnical. And yes - ity uses petrol to gain electricity. As the electricity in the charging stations also uses many other natural resources, it doesn't fall from the sky. Yet. :)

    I was sceptical about all this hybrid guff. I currently own a 68 plate xtrail tekna 2.0ltr tdi 190... the day my dealer accounted bookings for test drives, I was the first...
    I'm glad nissan took their time and made this car amazing and not to rush.. take the badge off this car and it could be a 100k vehicle...
    Needless to say two hour test drive later and I was sold, I made my order and will arrive in February.... forget another hybrid on the market this is byfar the best other than a tesla..
    P.s if I put my xtrail in eco mode I have got 60mpg on multiple occasions...
    Not in eco I struggle to get anything over 33mpg.. but who wants to stick it in eco 🤣🤣🤣
    If I get 50mpg out of this, I will be more than happy... would it be better sticking a 2.0ltr petrol compared to this enforce mode, I highly doubt it...
    Considering nissan are shying away from diesel engines now.

    Does the engine only ever idle then? Or does it increase revs according to how much charge the battery needs? Does the gas pedal still coincide with the revs? I have so many questions 🥲
    45mpg is poor though. What’s the point?

    • @1958plymouth440V8
      @1958plymouth440V8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, as Vicky says it does rev when pushed hard to supply the electric motors with enough charge. It’ll behave akin to a car with a CVT gearbox, i.e it will rarely rev in the same manner as a normal car even though it doesn’t have a gearbox. The concept itself isn’t new, Nissan’s been doing it for a while in the Note E-Power since 2017 and Chevrolet even earlier with the Volt. In fact it’s basically the same principle as diesel-electric locomotives.

      Most of the time the engine is almost undetectable running at low revs to simply charge the battery. Occasional sprints to 100km/h do not invoke the electric motor - it accelerates just like an EV.
      Acceleration is exceptional for an almost 2 tonne tank, with a 6.5s 0-100km/h easily achievable. Only after long steep uphill driving when the battery is low does the engine intrude (probably not a car for the Swiss Alps). Best mpg requires city driving with the e-peddle for max regen.

Or instead of a slow gutless 2.5L n/a X-Trail (Australian spec) that might get 25-28mpg. Hopefully the tiny 1.5T will last longer in E:Power as a generator than it will in the normal new X-Trail (UK spec) when it will often be working its little butt off.

    Thank you for another valuable review, Vicky. Not at all a bad choice for a family hauler. Interesting drivetrain that I think will quickly develop into something of a standard. We'll see if Mazda employs their rotary for the same purposes, and how many other manufacturers will be building hybrids with ICE engines as on-demand generators.

  • @BoopSnoot

    5:30 Its not hard to wrap your mind around, its a simple series vs parallel hybrid. In series the engine is a generator that provides additional current to the motor(s) and/or charges the battery. In parallel, it drives the wheels and the motor is setup as a helper usually in the CVT or in the rear wheels.

    A very informative and balanced review Vicky as always. I really like the concept of using the petrol engine as a generator, I guess in theory it simplifies the mechanicals somewhat in four wheel versions without the need for a prop shaft linking the front to rear. One thing that I'd be curious about though is that battery life under a continuous charge and discharge conditions although it's probably nothing to worry about. I do wonder if that lower than expected MPG might be partly down to those extra two seats and the heavy panoramic roof adding weight. Regardless I'd be very interested in a test along with others as and when I decide to change.

    I'd suggest epower setup is more of a replacement for previous gen diesel option ( in this car and Qashqai) as opposed to competing with PHEV's. Low to mid 40's is what you would see in the diesels-bearing in mind last gen and this one in 4wd & 7 seat spec isn't exactly a light vehicle once you've got the extra bits- and with the price diffferential at the moment ( in petrols favour) cost per mile will likely be similar.
