The X-in-1 approach, which covers 3-in-1, 5-in-1, and other possible variants, has been developed to enable EV and e-POWER core components to be produced on the same line.
Modularize three components (motor, inverter, reducer)
Modularize five components (motor, inverter, reducer, electric generator and increaser)
The X-in-1 approach to electrified powertrain development provides the following benefits:
- Sharing and modularizing core components improves production efficiencies and reduces powertrain costs by approximately 30% compared to 2019. Nissan aims to achieve e-POWER price parity with ICE vehicles by around 2026
- Size and weight reduction of the unit improves vehicle driving performance and minimizes noise and vibration
- Adopt newly developed motor that reduces the use of heavy rare earth elements to 1% or less of magnet weight
- The sharing of core components and control technology provides the enjoyable driving experience unique to Nissan EVs
