Question 1

What is Nissan e-Power?

Accepted Answer

A hybrid in which the 1.5 petrol engine only generates electricity and an electric motor always drives the wheels. It feels like an electric car but never needs charging: the Qashqai e-Power has 205 hp, the X-Trail 204 hp, or 214 hp with e-4ORCE all-wheel drive.

Question 2

Which new Nissan has all-wheel drive?

Accepted Answer

The Ariya e-4ORCE with 306 or 394 hp, or 435 hp as the Nismo, the X-Trail e-Power e-4ORCE, and the Qashqai mild hybrid with Xtronic 4WD.

Question 3

Which battery sizes do the new Nissan electric cars have?

Accepted Answer

The Micra has 40 or 52 kWh, the Leaf 52 or 75 kWh and the Ariya 63 or 87 kWh. The bigger battery brings more range and, in the Micra and Leaf, more power too.

Question 4

Do electric Nissans pay car tax in Switzerland?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the canton. Zürich and Solothurn exempt electric cars, Bern charges half the rate, and others such as Schwyz and St. Gallen tax them like any car.

Question 5

Is a new Nissan worth it over a used one?

Accepted Answer

A new Nissan brings the full factory warranty and models only on sale new, such as the third Leaf and the electric Micra. A young used Qashqai or Juke costs less, as it has already taken its steepest depreciation.
