Electric Range
Available at FG Barnes Nissan
Making the switch to an electric vehicle doesn’t have to be a big step. With a range of electrification options, there’s a Nissan that is perfect for you.
We have four options available across our range, which are Mild Hybrid Power, Hybrid, e-POWER and 100% Electric Power. You can find out more about these below!
Mild Hybrid POWER
A Mild Hybrid vehicle is the easiest way to switch to electric. A petrol engine powers the wheels while an electric battery provides support during acceleration, up hills and while cruising. The only change you will notice to a fully petrol/diesel vehicle is that the improved fuel efficiency and an all-round more comfortable drive, particularly in stop-start traffic.
Stop-start technology increases efficiency when on the road by shutting the engine off when the car is coasting, or when lifting the foot off the pedal at speeds under 11mph on automatic transmission. This reduces tailpipe emissions and running costs of everyday driving.
Hybrid, a thrilling electrified experience
Hybrid vehicles add an electric motor to your everyday petrol engine to bring you a whole host of benefits, without the need to charge. The system seamlessly switches between electric, combustion or a combination of the two, automatically applying the most efficient driving solution to your drive.
e-POWER, your first step towards going Electric
e-POWER combines a petrol engine, charging the battery with an electric motor that turns the wheels. e-POWER has lower emissions and running costs compared to a traditional petrol engine, without plugging it in. There is no compromise to driving pleasure, e-POWER delivers instant acceleration giving you that full electric vehicle feeling.
100% Electric POWER
Powered by an electric motor and battery pack, you’ll never need to visit the petrol station again. Electric power is clean, silent and more efficient; however you do need to be able to charge the vehicle. This means that you may need to plan ahead for long journeys, and installing a charging point at your home.
100% Electric Power vehicles are cheaper to run, more environmentally friendly, and provide an instant response. Nissan have long understood the advantages of a battery-run vehicle, and the electric range offers improved driving range and performance to ensure your drive is as efficient as possible.
