The Nissan Rogue Hybrid e‑POWER, slated to reach showrooms at the end of 2026, will introduce Nissan’s e‑POWER hybrid technology to the United States and Canada. The crossover has also made Newsweek’s list of the most anticipated new cars of 2026.

Nissan’s Hybrid e‑POWER system, first launched overseas in 2017 and now in its third generation, has been tailored for North America. In this configuration, an electric motor drives the wheels while a gasoline engine works as a generator, a setup that promises instant torque, seamless acceleration, and a quiet, comfortable drive. The focus on response and calm should make daily commutes feel noticeably easier.

Eileen Falkenberg‑Hull, senior editor of the auto desk at Newsweek, said the new Nissan Rogue Hybrid e‑POWER combines the qualities of a five‑seat family vehicle with the efficiency of a car that does not pollute the environment.

The launch of the all‑new 2027 Rogue Hybrid e‑POWER will be a key part of Nissan’s broader growth plan. Positioned alongside the brand’s internal‑combustion models, it expands the lineup so buyers can choose what best matches their driving style and expectations.

Winners of Newsweek’s “Most Anticipated New Cars of 2026” were chosen by the Newsweek Autos editorial team based on several factors. The goal of the ranking is to determine which vehicles buyers in each region are most eager to see in the coming year.
