The Nissan Rogue e:Power arrives this November to rival the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V Hybrid.
The Japanese automaker has moved up its launch timeline twice.
Hybrid sales are booming in the U.S. due to high gas prices.
Despite being an early electric vehicle pioneer with the first-generation Leaf in 2010, Nissan has been notably absent from the powertrain Americans are gravitating toward most: hybrids. The Japanese automaker does offer the Rogue plug-in hybrid in the U.S., but that’s basically a rebadged Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Now, Nissan is preparing to launch the fourth-generation Rogue in the U.S., with the hybrid arriving first, followed by non-hybrid versions.
The automaker has fast-tracked the launch of the Rogue e:Power twice, bringing its U.S. arrival forward from mid-2027 to January and now to November of this year, Automotive News reported Monday. Nissan told InsideEVs at the New York Auto Show in April of this year that the Rogue hybrid was expected to arrive in late 2026.
