Hybrid engines have an internal combustion engine that is combined with a battery-operated electric motor. They come in different versions – the latest Qashqai offers a mild-hybrid version where the petrol engine power charges the battery. The e-POWER engine is Nissan’s unique technology, which uses energy from regenerative braking to power the car battery, which then charges and runs the electric motor.
