e-POWER China's first car released Without charging electric drive technology to understand

The steaming dumplings of the winter solstice herald the true arrival of severe cold weather. In the face of cooling of more than 10 degrees and the cold wind comparable to a bone-chilling steel knife, a large number of electric vehicle owners have to struggle between "warm wind" or "endurance". After all, it's nothing new to have the mileage discounted in winter because of the warm wind.

However, with the advent of Nissan's "electric drive technology without charging", car owners will no longer have to struggle with "warm air" or "endurance" while enjoying the advantages of electric vehicles such as speed and quiet, and even no longer have "mileage anxiety". Because Nissan e-POWER perfectly integrates the advantages of internal combustion engines and electric motors, its unique technical characteristics such as oil power generation, pure electric drive, and zero anxiety will also completely solve the technical shortcomings of many aspects of new energy vehicles.

The media that have experienced e-POWER power before have vividly summarized its driving experience as "fast (fast acceleration)", "smooth (smooth driving)", "quiet (enjoy more quiet)" and "save (save money, worry, time)", which is about to be recognized by more consumers.

What is e-POWER power technology

To put it simply, e-POWER power technology is an innovative fusion of Nissan's mature fuel technology and mature electric drive technology, which can be seen as an electric drive technology without charging, that is, 100% motor drive, oil power generation and pure electric drive each perform their duties and are integrated into one.

In fact, the research and development of e-POWER can be traced back to more than 10 years ago, after all, Nissan has never hesitated to invest in the research and development of cutting-edge technology. In 2007, based on the fuel version of TIDA, Nissan developed a new concept car that is "driven by an internal combustion engine to generate electricity" in order to allow more people to experience the "ultra-long acceleration" of pure motor drive as soon as possible, realizing the challenge of using complex technology to control driving pleasure. In 2010, Nissan developed based on the electric vehicle LEAF (Leaf), through rationalization of the layout of parts, the power system into the engine compartment, to achieve the same riding space as the fuel version of the model, in order to be closer to the electric vehicle, the use of internal combustion engine and electric motor coordination of the working mode.

After unremitting exploration and improvement, in 2016, the first NOTE e-POWER equipped with e-POWER smart charging dynamic technology was launched in Japan. As soon as e-POWER technology was listed, it won a number of international authoritative awards and won a double harvest of sales and word of mouth. As of March 2021, the cumulative sales of models equipped with e-POWER have exceeded 500,000 units, of which NOTE e-POWER has won the first place in the sales of compact models in the Japanese market for three consecutive years.

Why e-POWER acceleration is faster and smoother

e-POWER has the characteristics of faster and smoother, this is because e-POWER is equipped with an internal combustion engine, but it is a 100% electric drive system, the internal combustion engine is only used for power generation, always not involved in driving the car, the whole process by the internal combustion engine and battery to provide power, the internal combustion engine is responsible for efficient power generation and always in the best working condition. The high-power professional drive motor equipped with the "Ward Top Ten" equipped with e-POWER can output a maximum peak torque of 300N·m in the same stage at the starting stage, and it takes only 3.8 seconds to accelerate from 0-50km/h.

Moreover, e-POWER matches the power type lithium battery, the charge and discharge rate is 15 times that of the traditional pure electric model, with the technical advantages of flash charge flash release, extremely fast energy storage, and instant release. Specifically, flash charging allows high-efficiency internal combustion engines to choose opportunities to rapidly store energy for high-power batteries, ensuring that vehicles have good energy reserves at any time. Flash release can make the vehicle accelerate, the high-power battery instantaneously intervenes in the energy release, thereby driving the high-torque electric motor to achieve explosive output, making the vehicle more powerful.

At the same time, the e-POWER adopts no variable speed mechanism, the motor goes directly to the wheel, and the response to the power is more rapid, without the frustration caused by switching gears. The reaction process after pressing the pedal is more concise than the traditional gasoline engine process, and the single pedal operation can effectively reduce the braking frequency by 70%. In addition, during the driving of the vehicle, acceleration is not affected by the battery SOC, and when necessary, the internal combustion engine and the battery can provide power to the motor at the same time.

In addition, because e-POWER is a 100% full-time electric drive, the internal combustion engine does not participate in the drive of the wheel, which avoids the setback when the internal combustion engine power intervention and the motor power coupling, and the power output is more smooth and linear. Combined with 1/10,000 seconds of precision electronic control technology, it reduces vibration, accelerates smoothly and comfortably, and combs the maximum peak torque of the same class up to 300N·m very smoothly to ensure a smooth driving process.

Why e-POWER is quieter and more worry-free

e-POWER is a full-time electric drive, the internal combustion engine does not participate in the direct drive, only responsible for the battery power is insufficient, rapid acceleration or high-speed cruise in the case of starting power generation, the operation time is reduced by 50% compared with the traditional HEV, coupled with Nissan's unique patented vibration suppression technology, reducing the vibration frequency and noise of the internal combustion engine, so the quietness in the car is strong, providing a whisper-level quiet experience for the driver and passengers.

Enjoy the tranquility of a luxury car without having to pay for the use of a luxury car, because e-POWER is very economical to use. The e-POWER engine has a thermal efficiency of up to 43% and the internal combustion engine is always operating at its best, providing excellent fuel economy compared to conventional combustion engines. When the engine is turned off at high speed and smooth driving, it can not only improve the quietness of driving, but also greatly reduce fuel consumption and ensure power generation efficiency. In addition, e-POWER is matched with a small capacity battery, the battery size is small, effectively reducing the weight of the car body, but also further reducing fuel consumption. e-POWER China's first car consumes as little as 3.9L per 100 km in the city.

Compared with fuel vehicles, e-POWER wins with low fuel consumption. Compared with electric vehicles, e-POWER is more worry-free. Do not consider the installation of charging piles, but also eliminate the trouble of looking for charging piles everywhere, and refueling is far faster than charging. There is no mileage anxiety, and there is no need to consider the problem that the large battery equipped by the electric vehicle is attenuated year by year due to the mileage, and there is no need to worry about the impact of low temperature on battery performance.

e-POWER's first car was released in surprise

e-POWER has won numerous awards overseas, and with the official release of the first e-POWER China car equipped with the second-generation e-POWER power technology at the Guangzhou Auto Show, Chinese consumers will also experience the magic of e-POWER.

In addition to the e-POWER black technology that has been described in detail above, the appearance characteristics of e-POWER's first car are also remarkable.

e-POWER Xuanyi follows the front face design of the Nissan V-Motion family, and the overall shape is more sporty and young. On the front of the body, the e-POWER Xuanyi front and rear of the car applied the newly designed NISSAN LOGO, full of technology texture, and the front face grille is equipped with a new Y-shaped mesh pattern that reflects the electric drive, bringing a very strong visual impact. On the side of the body, e-POWER Xuanyi still uses a segmented waistline design, a stylish suspension roof, and double five-spoke wheels, which is basically consistent with the current Xuanyi model. It is worth noting that the new car has added e-POWER left and right side markers, and there are two-color body for consumers to choose, and the new car will also provide different roof and exterior mirror options with different colors. At the rear of the body, e-POWER Xuanyi is equipped with a newly designed LED taillight group, and the e-POWER tail mark and the torque data tail mark of 300 are added to further highlight the identity of the new car.

Previously, e-POWER China's first car has officially begun to accept reservations, the new car launched a total of 4 models, the official guidance price is 138,900 yuan for the all-electric drive Pro version, 149,900 yuan for the Super Smart Link Plus version, 155,900 yuan for the Super Smart Driving Max Version, and 174,900 yuan for the ultra-luxury Ultra edition.

Regarding the license plate policy, according to the relevant national regulations, although it is not possible to be on the green card, e-POWER China's first car belongs to the energy-saving and emission-reducing model under the national "double carbon" goal, so it can enjoy the energy-saving vehicle license policy in Guangzhou, Tianjin and other cities. Green card, enjoy the purchase tax concessions, is one of the reasons why new energy vehicles attract consumers, but not all, consumers want to be low-carbon, want electric driving pleasure, but also want no endurance, charging anxiety. The first model of e-POWER China is such a existence, its full life cycle carbon emissions can be comparable to pure electric vehicles, and full-time electric drive, without charging can enjoy pure electric driving fun, it can be said that charging technology and charging pile construction is not perfect at the moment the optimal solution. At present, the number of new car inquiries and orders continues to rise, and consumers are very much looking forward to the first car of e-POWER.

In the era of electric drive, the integration of Nissan's nearly 90 years of fuel technology and super 70 years of electric technology, breaking through the industry's traditional route to create an unprecedented e-POWER, while bringing consumers a more advanced 100% full-time electric drive experience, but also to achieve a high degree of unity of fuel economy, comfort and surging power, it can be said that e-POWER is a landmark innovation in the field of automotive power technology. It is understood that after the launch of e-POWER China's first model, in 2025, Dongfeng Nissan will have 7 models equipped with e-POWER, so that more consumers can experience the charm of e-POWER.
