NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Nissan today offered a first look at the all-new 2027 Nissan Rogue featuring the company's innovative Hybrid e‑POWER technology. The early preview took place during a global media event outlining Nissan's new customer‑centric long‑term vision, "Mobility Intelligence for Everyday Life," which combines AI‑Defined Vehicles, choice‑driven electrification, and a disciplined global portfolio and industrial strategy. Read more about the event here. The all-new Rogue signals the next chapter for one of Nissan's most important global nameplates. The model's debut at Nissan's Vision event underscores the company's commitment to advancing hybrid options tailored to the needs of key global markets. As Nissan's number one model in the industry's largest segment within its most important market, the all‑new Rogue reinforces the brand's growth strategy across the U.S. and Canada. "Rogue has long been at the heart of Nissan's success in the U.S. and Canada, and the next generation represents a major step forward for this incredibly important model," said Ponz Pandikuthira, senior vice president, Chief Product & Planning Officer, Nissan Americas. "With hybrid e‑POWER, the all-new Rogue will bring the smooth, responsive feel of electric motor driving to one of the most popular compact SUVs in North America, while staying true to what customers value most – efficiency, confidence and everyday usability." Since its introduction in 2000, the Rogue/X‑Trail model family has sold nearly 10 million units globally, including almost million in the United States, making it one of Nissan's most successful vehicles worldwide. The all-new 2027 Rogue Hybrid will pair the dependability, practicality and versatility customers expect from the nameplate with the introduction of hybrid e‑POWER, Nissan's unique system that provides the efficiency of a strong hybrid with the spirited driving character provided by electric motors. Hybrid e‑POWER introduces a distinct approach to powertrains within the compact SUV segment. A gasoline engine generates electricity solely to power dual electric motors that drive the wheels, providing smooth, responsive acceleration and confident performance across a wide range of driving conditions. Nissan has sold almost million vehicles with e‑POWER since 2016, making it a globally tried-and-tested technology. To see a video of how hybrid e‑POWER works, click here.

The all-new rugged SUV will be produced in the United States, further strengthening Nissan's manufacturing footprint and capability offering for North American customers. The launch is targeted for late 2028. Nissan is exploring a family of five U.S.-built models on a new body-on-frame platform including the all-new Xterra, with potential expansion to pickups and multi-row SUVs across Nissan and INFINITI brands. Giving customers more capability, versatility and choice across key segments, the model family will also feature V6 or new V6 Hybrid powertrains. Nissan will announce additional information on both the all-new Rogue Hybrid e‑POWER and the next-generation Xterra as the company approaches their respective market launches.
