"Hong Kong is at the forefront of technological innovation.

A design that breaks with compact car norms

The all-new NOTE e-POWER showcases Nissan's latest design concept, Timeless Japanese Futurism. The simple, yet powerfully modern and distinctive Japanese approach sets the NOTE e-POWER apart from other compact cars. Nissan's signature V-motion grille crowns the exterior, forming a strong V-line under the slim-line headlamps. Character lines extend from the front, carving the side profile and transitioning through the slim, horizontally continuous rear combination lamps. The overall impression is one of advanced, simple and dynamic design for the electrified age.

The front grille pattern draws from traditional Japanese design, conveying an artisan touch. Bookending the grille are sleek headlights featuring four ice-cube-like LED projector lights, keeping the front sharp and sporty. Sixteen-inch aluminum wheels, with an inner design reminiscent of a sword blade, complete the all-new NOTE e-POWER's agile look.

The model comes with 13 available body color variations, including two two-tone options and an eye-catching Vivid Blue. Also available is the new color Opera Mauve, specially created for the Note.

Comfortable, spacious interior with a tech touch

The new NOTE e-POWER defies preconceptions about compact car interiors by minimizing the footprint of components while increasing comfort and technology. The center console is positioned for easy access to the downsized electronic shift lever and opens space below it. Zero Gravity seats and large armrests offer enhanced comfort on long-distance trips.

In the rear, the space far exceeds segment norms, with plenty of headroom and legroom as well as reclining seatbacks. The rear hatch has a wide opening to a spacious trunk, making loading and unloading an easier experience.

State-of-the-art technology ensures information is readily available at a glance. Upon entry, the driver is greeted by the Monolith large integrated display interface that links vehicle information in a seamless landscape orientation. Digital gauge displays keep information clear and easy to read.

Advanced power

The all-new NOTE e-POWER represents the nameplate's third generation. The completely new platform and design give it a fresh, advanced impression. The new NOTE e-POWER also features the second generation of Nissan's acclaimed e-POWER electric powertrain.

Extensively redesigned and redeveloped, the system produces more power, a higher-quality driving experience and improved efficiency. It represents a step-change in performance, with responsive acceleration, smooth deceleration, and quietness that only an electrified powertrain can deliver.

Revolutionary e-POWER evolves

The second-generation e-POWER system has an all-new electric motor and inverter. Electric motor torque has been increased by 10% and output by 6%, delivering powerful, thrilling acceleration from a standing start or when passing other vehicles. The e-POWER control technology has been tuned to achieve smoother acceleration and significantly improve cabin quietness. The new inverter is now 40% smaller and 30% lighter.

The onboard gasoline engine used to generate electrical energy is also more efficient, resulting in both increased power and better fuel economy. The engine now operates at a lower RPM and is engaged less often during a typical drive. Coupled with enhanced insulation in the vehicle body, this results in quietness that's a class above typical compact cars. As a world first, electrical energy generation is controlled according to road conditions. When road noise increases due to surface conditions and vehicle speed, the engine switches on to charge the e-POWER battery pack. This reduces the need for the engine to operate under otherwise quieter conditions.

Drives with Nissan Intelligent Mobility, Drives with Confidence

The new NOTE e-POWER is packed with various Nissan Intelligent Mobility innovative
technologies enhancing driver's confidence and driving experience.

Intelligent Forward Collision Warning (IFCW) includes "Two Cars Ahead Detection". System detects and analyzes the distance between you and the pedestrian, cyclist, the car directly ahead and the next car in front. Warning will be issued should there be potential risk of collision.

Intelligent Emergency Braking (IEB) monitors the surrounding area in front of the car, helping to avoid or reduce damage caused by collisions.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) will send out an alert when detected lane drift out without indication.
