Nissan goes all-in on EVs, stops development of ICE

. Rather than focusing purely on electric vehicles , the three automakers partnered up to further develop hybrid and plug-in hybrid technologies while also committing to making carbon-neutral ICEs.

According to a report by Drive, Fracios Bally, Nissan Senior Vice President and Chief Planning Officer for Africa, Middle East, India, Europe, and Oceania, said to the publication that the company's future is EV. Nissan's method to go electric will be done via the brand's innovative e-Power system. Unlike typical parallel hybrid systems, Nissan's e-Power is a series hybrid wherein an electric motor drives the wheels of the vehicle. It still has an internal combustion engine under the hood but its sole purpose is to charge the onboard battery as well as provide extra power to the electric motor while under load.

But when will Nissan actually stop making ICEs for its vehicles? For Bally, there is no exact date yet as to when the automaker will make the transition. Instead, the executive mentioned that depending on each market, Nissan will adjust per country and region depending on their emissions laws & regulations.
