Nissan Maps Hybrid-Led Reset With 2027 Rogue, Juke EV and Xterra Return

The move bets on e-POWER hybrids as a faster path to profit.

Overview

  • At Tuesday's Vision event in Japan, Nissan said it will shrink its global range from 56 to 45 models to concentrate investment on higher-return vehicles.
  • The 2027 Rogue/X‑Trail will bring Nissan’s e‑POWER series hybrid to the U.S., where a gasoline engine acts as a generator and electric motors power the wheels.
  • A new Juke EV is slated for Europe in spring 2027 with production at Sunderland in the U.K. and planned vehicle‑to‑grid capability.
  • Nissan confirmed the U.S.-built Xterra will return in late 2028 on a body‑on‑frame platform with V6 and V6‑hybrid powertrains.
  • The plan centers development and exports on the U.S., Japan and China for about 80% of volume and reaffirms Infiniti growth with new V6 and hybrid models as Nissan targets one million U.S./Canada sales by 2030.
