New energy travel 'mode' Dongfeng Nissan releases e-POWER 'big move'

China Automotive News, April 19th. Entering the era of new energy, consumers face not only the choice of brand and model type, but also the choice of power type when buying a car. The maintenance cost of fuel vehicles is getting higher and higher, the charging of electric vehicles is inconvenient, and the structure of hybrid models is complicated. It seems that which kind of power mode is not desirable.

Although in the long run, the electric drive system is still the top priority in the future automotive industry chain, and it is also the general trend. But this does not mean that consumers must endure the many inconveniences in the current use of electric vehicles.

On April 18th, Dongfeng Nissan's 'Unprecedented Fusion Power-Technology Nissan e-POWER Night' was successfully held in Shanghai. Dongfeng Nissan released its 'big move' in terms of power, introducing Nissan's new generation of power system-e-POWER.

The new power has jumped out of the current “limits” of various power types and realized the unification of fuel economy, comfort and super power. It is not only a landmark innovation in the field of automotive power technology, but also a The best travel 'mode' in the new energy era.

A new path in oil and electricity technology

The 'e-' in e-POWER means electric drive, and 'POWER' means a sense of excitement. Although the e-POWER system has a gasoline engine, it is not a hybrid system in the traditional sense. Because the gasoline engine is only responsible for generating electricity, it reaches the drive motor through the inverter, and then the output power of the drive motor is transmitted to the wheels, so the entire power system is 100% motor driven.

At the same time, this system does not need to specifically charge the battery, so e-POWER is a special existence that is different from the current power form. It has a pleasant driving experience comparable to a pure electric vehicle, but it does not have the mileage anxiety of a pure electric vehicle. .

With nearly 90 years of glorious history of fuel technology and more than 70 years of advanced electric technology precipitation, Nissan has combined the GT-R team and LEAF team to innovatively integrate the two aspects of power technology to create e-POWER. And 'integrated power' refers to oil power generation, pure electric drive, each fulfilling its duties and integrating into one. Therefore, e-POWER is an electric drive technology that truly realizes the unprecedented need for charging.

The power of the driving motor in the e-POWER system comes from a 50% ultra-high thermal efficiency engine and a 1.5Kwh high-performance battery. When starting, it is completely powered by the battery; and as the speed increases, the engine generates power and charges the battery at the same time; when it is necessary to increase the speed instantly, the engine and the battery provide power together. This time the system torque is up to 500Nm, which brings smooth acceleration. .

Therefore, e-POWER not only has the smooth and quiet 'e' driving experience of electric vehicles, but also the driving pleasure of 'POWER' with fast response and strong power.

Dominates the trend among thousands of advantages

How to effectively reduce the price and fuel consumption without affecting the power of the vehicle is a topic that has been studied by various car companies. Nissan’s e-POWER has a unique design idea and structure. Compared with the current fuel, pure electric, extended range and hybrid systems, it has many advantages in daily use such as speed-up, quietness, smoothness, and no charging, which is more in line with Consumer demand.

Compared with ordinary gasoline engine vehicles, the e-POWER system has almost all the advantages of electric vehicles such as fast speed, smoothness and quietness, while the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is only 2.7L, which makes vehicles equipped with fuel engines unmatched; Pure electric vehicles equipped with e-POWER system not only have no anxiety about charging, but also no anxiety about mileage. In addition, the system uses small-sized batteries with flash charging and flashing performance, and there will be no problems such as large-capacity cruising range decay year by year, and obvious effects of low temperature.

Even in the face of power systems with global influence such as Toyota THS and Honda i-MMD, the advantages of e-POWER are clear at a glance. e-POWER is not only simpler in structure, less lossy, and more fuel-efficient on urban roads; it also has higher system torque, faster starting and overtaking, and higher acceleration and stability. At the same time, the engine intervention time is reduced by 50% compared with the hybrid system, and the quietness has better performance.

In addition, e-POWER also has the secret weapon 'e-pedalSwitch the driving mode to e-pedal mode. At this time, if you step on the accelerator pedal, you will refuel. If the pedal is released, the car will automatically start to decelerate. Compared with the power recovery function of electric vehicles, e-pedal can truly brake the vehicle until Stop the car. Therefore, the frequency of braking actions can be reduced by 70%, and the vehicle travels more smoothly while saving energy.

Conclusion: Obviously, compared to other forms of power, Nissan’s e-POWER power can better cater to the actual needs of consumers for cars, and has obvious late-comer advantages. Once it was launched, it received good feedback from the market. The first Nissan NOTE equipped with e-POWER has won the sales champion of its class in Japan for three consecutive years.

According to the latest news, Dongfeng Nissan models equipped with e-POWER power will soon meet with Chinese consumers, and Chinese partners will feel the e-POWER technology brings smoother, quieter, and more Efficient and infinitely close to the driving pleasure of electric vehicles.
