      You might have to wait 10 years for that to happen

      • A loss of 4.5billion last FY and a margin of less than 1% isn’t going to last 10 years. Give it 2-3 years.

        • +3

          That’s assuming no positive changes are being made year on year

        • +8

          That was mostly an asset write down, so it's not a true loss as in the cost to do business far exceeding revenue. I remember Qantas did a similar thing a couple of years ago with their fleet. There's usually quite a few tax advantages to doing it.

          With Nissan already looking at closing a few plants and with it being such a large employer in Japan, if any bail out is need, its likely to get it. I reckon with the cost reductions, some better models like the new leaf, it will have a better next few years.

        • I hope not cos the new shape Nissan Patrol looks good.😄

    • +9

      People have been saying this for the last 20 years and the company still exists. Plus it's another Japanese icon that I doubt their government will not provide support.

      • -5

        Not the best comparison, but sounds a bit like the old Derrimut 24:7 Gym - and we all know how that's turning out.

        • Not the best comparison…

          Now that’s an understatement. You weren’t expecting a bail out from Australian government were you - and from such a small company that pales in comparison.

      • our government didn't continue to support Holden (even though it did for years)

        Eventually if they don't keep up with global market pressure - they risk no longer existing

    • With quality research like that, I am surprised you are allowed to vote or even permitted to consume oxygen.

    • Feeling sorry for the manufacturer. My first car was a Datsun 1200 and in the last 40 years we had a number of Datsun/ Nissan cars. They make great cars. I hope they'll be able to ride it out.
      Back in the day when I had the Nissan Astra, a mate who drove a Porsche 924 wanted to see how far he could outrun it, then we both got on the M4 at Eastern Creek. Suffice to say once I overtook him, he couldn't see which way I went. Imagine the embarrassment on his face.

      • Datsun 1200 was so good!

    • actually recent models look very promising

    • +11

      Something something do your research on E-Power which doesn't use CVT!

    • +1

      No — Nissan’s e‑Power models do not use a traditional CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) in the way many hybrid or petrol cars do.

      • It drives purely by the electric motor and petrol engine act as the generator.

        People call PHEV the the worst of both world, which this is pretty much the worst of both world.

        No fuel efficiency of an engine driven hybrid system/PHEV, nor an engine-less drivetrain like a BEV.

        • Not sure wheter the terminology is mixed up. But..
          In general, the series hybrid (EV+generator) tends to be more efficient that the traditional hybrids in the city.

          In Australia, the majority of hybrid are not plug in, so the difference with those is even bigger, as you can use the car as mostly an EV, and only use fuel for long distances.

          Note that in not talking about this particular car, but in general. This car might be shit.. i don't know.

          • @elcheapoinoz: Same as Honda's system (serial hybrid). Engine drives the wheel at higher speed. Had the ZRV as a daily for 2 years now, average 4.5 - doesnt change much between city and highway driving.

    • Something something, do some research.

  • Anyone have knowledge of longevity of these powertrains. 2kWh battery constantly getting flogged can't be lasting that long…

    • I think inverter will be supplying the direct power to motors instead of charging the battery that's why the fuel consumption is not good as compare to other hybrids

      • +2

        The main advantage of Nissan’s e‑Power system is that it offers the driving feel and instant torque of an electric vehicle (EV) — without needing to plug in or worry about range. This makes perfect sense for a 4WD!

        In city driving, e-Power can be efficient, because the engine runs intermittently and the motor is doing most of the low-speed work — but on highways, it's often less efficient than Toyota hybrids.

        • +1

          Honda hybrid runs sub 4 both in local traffic and highway. With instant torque from the electric motor.

          Nissan's 7L/100km is a joke.

          • @SetTheFaqUp: You’re not the target audience as this is a 4WD that can do 950km on a single tank

            • -3

              @freeb1e4me: I am certain it won't make it from Sydney to Brisbane on a single tank.

              "950km on a single tank"
              A 55L tank yielding 800km at best on such a poor efficiency hybrid.

              It is a "SUV" now a proper 4WD… Hope no idiot will take it down to the beach like some Tesla drivers and expect to make it out.

              • -1

                @SetTheFaqUp: Because it’s electronic and not a traditional mechanical transfer case‑based 4WD, it may behave differently (less rugged, lower capability in very challenging off‑road conditions) compared to full mechanical 4WD systems. But for most uses (rain, snow, mild off‑road, gravel), it’s capable

                • -2

                  @freeb1e4me: lol. You are for real?

                  The mentioned conditions, a front wheel propelled cars will do.

                  I rest my case.

                  In case you don't know, rav4 also propels the rear wheels when the front slips.

                  These so called "all wheel drive" is marketing gimmick at best. Even my STI can do muddy surface better this so call 4WD.

                  • @SetTheFaqUp:

                    Even my STI can do muddy surface better this so call 4WD

                    If you are wanting to do some serious off roading then again this vehicle is not for you, and you can expect another $15-20k for that luxury. For most people, this is a beautiful and comfortable vehicle to drive from state to state in.

                @SetTheFaqUp: I drive an e-power and I get over 1000km. This during cold mornings too using up heated seats and the heater.

                • -2

                  @TomGum: Highway? That's different to my mates average. Can barely hit 800km from Sydney to Brisbane.

                  Even worse from Melbourne to Adelaide on the coastal highways.

                  • @SetTheFaqUp: I drive to and from mount barker to the city (SA), few times a week. I’ll soon be driving from Adelaide to Melbourne so will be able to say more, but I noticed less fuel efficiency if I drive aggressively. If I drive normally and not accelerating aggressively my fuel efficiency is much greater. So it might be the user thats making it less efficient. Not sure what other 55L car can do similar km to the E-power.

                    One of my uncle has a 2023 RAV 4 and he drives to and from mount barker to Murray Bridge 6 days a week, and he barely gets 800km.

                    • -2

                      @TomGum: We covered the same distance on the Honda HRV as our mates X-Trail e-Power. One being a 45L tank and the other one is 55L. So just shy of 800km before refuelling. Mostly 110km/hr.

                      • @SetTheFaqUp: You drive a HRV and your putting shit on other cars?! 😂

                        • @Big L: Yes, a ZRV. Well, maybe the Atto 3 at home is also a close comparison.

                          Other weekend track cars are not SUVs, so won't even be remotely relevant to compare.

          • @SetTheFaqUp: My Nissan e-Power averages 5L/100km over my first 40000km, not bad for a 2 ton 4WD! I regularly get over 1000km from a tank full on mixed city, dirt and highway driving. The driving dynamics are excellent and comfort is first class. Has plenty of get up and go when asked. Not a single mechanical or electrical issue. Best car I have ever owned (or leased).

            • @petersx: Comes down to how much highway driving. Try a 10 hours 110km trip and that will give you the insights on fuel consumption on that trip. Otherwise with aircond on cooling, the ePower sits on mid 5 to 6 local driving.

    Wouldn't it be better to open the offer to people who don't own Nissan? Kinda self-defeating strategy imo.

    • +2

      Nissan may be trying to reduce customer churn — keeping existing customers from jumping to another brand. It costs less to retain a customer than to acquire a new one. People already in the ecosystem are more likely to convert quickly (lower sales resistance).

      It’s still possible that individual dealers may open it up to anyone, depending on how well it sells and how well you negotiate.

                    You laugh. 50k doesn't buy alot these days. The amount of parts under Nissan's bonnet from the Renault part bin is shocking. Might as well get a Renault for much cheaper if cosmetic "nice things" are what one is looking for.

                    "not even any padding on armrests for driver"

                    That is what Lexus is for, nice touch here and there.

                    Toyota is a stripped down runabout that is, well, made to last (to be fair, interior is much better these days, the old Corolla's interior was easily the worst of its time - and probably still is). QC is actually not cheap (just like warranty and spare parts inventory etc).

          I am very curious why you/your family have so many cars that are 15-20 years old? Technology and comfort of vehicles changes so much every few years. I had a Toyota back in 2002, it was a nice car, but by today's standards the cheapest Chinese import would exceed anything that my old Toyota could offer.

          • @solidice: They just last that long and keep going year after year without issue. No Chinese car could offer that. Keep them well maintained and they drive just as nice as a new car.

            I have a 14 year old grey import Toyota that has features most new cars don't have and it's reliable. You don't see many grey import Nissan's, too much of a nightmare to fix when they go wrong.

            • @JIMB0: "grey import Nissan's, too much of a nightmare to fix when they go wrong."

              Nissan Elgrand (such an old car) is the exception. It is a Nissan from ground up and running on the good old 3.5L VQ.

          • +1

            @solidice: We just gotten rid of a 2005 Camry Sportivo (made in Australia) not long ago. That thing just wont give up.

            The car just sits there and visitors borrow the car when they are here.

            Nothing aside from basic service as well the usually consumables (brakes, engine mount). Suspension was still in very good condition.

            "Chinese import would exceed anything that my old Toyota could offer." Very true. Chinese car are built to cost. Can easily spot the cost savings when bonnet is lifted or underbody of the car down to more fragile plastic housing. VW is the same, using a plastic impeller and it is notorious known to be replaced within 10 years. They gave up on metal impellers as the bearing (poor engineering or QC) fails and the metal impeller will damage the engine itself - they went with lesser of the two evil rather than engineering something that will last from ground up.

            An average consumer would not have a clue on what parts went in as they dont pull the car apart and go for the "nice things" on a value ($) proposition. This stops when things stop working and people eventually find value in reliability (can be boring sometimes - fridge on two wheels, but they do not dress up as an upmarket product).

    no spare tyre

    • -1

      It is instead supplied with a tyre repair / mobility kit

      • Yeah no good to me I travel in rural areas for work. I have the Ti-L.

    • I came very close to buying one and no proper spare tyre was a deal breaker for me too. In trips through rural areas it limits where you can go, without potentially needing a detour/layover to get the tyre repaired which could mean delays to the destination and needing unplanned accommodation. The higher model Mitsubishi Outlanders have the same issue too. No proper spare is fine for the city, but unsuitable for large parts of Australia. Yes, you can add one, but that comes with additional downsides as well.

      • Yes, you can add one, but that comes with additional downsides as well.

        Besides extra costs, what are the downsides?

        • +1

          Would the full size spare then take up storage space in the boot?

        • Depending on where you store it, there is a greater risk of it becoming a very heavy projectile in an accident. Factory fitted they're often under the floor instead and secure. If you put them on the roof, you either might need to add suitable roof racks, or upgrade them to something with a solid floor/mesh to sit on. That would also rule out rooftop tents if you store it on the roof. Then you introduce noise and drag considerations which can also have an affect on fuel consumption on large trips. I wouldn't personally have thought that would add up to much, but apparently people say it does. Wherever you put it though, it takes up space that something else could've used or is overkill for these types of cars. The thing is, all of that was already solved. This is a new introduced issue. I'd say likely by choosing a one size fits all design for EV/Hybrid and then changing ICE designs to suit that.

      • I read that of all the makes and brands of soft off roaders, only the Forrester and RAV4 have a full size spare as standard.

        • "Forrester"

          Very capable. Easily one of the most capable soft roader with the permanent AWD.

          • @SetTheFaqUp: But not a great hybrid or electric maker.

            • -1

              @Big L: They are pxss weak in EV or hybrid roll out.

              Frankly, I don't think they will survive in the long run unless more RnD into electrification.

              Their only EV is a rebadged Toyota (well, Toyota owns a chunk of Sub) and it is not a great EV to start with. Their "mild hybrid" is not worth the paper it is written on.

              In terms of mild off-road as we speak today. Don't think any hybrid can compare for some semi rugged terrain.

        • Subaru Outback does as well.

          • @mrbargainz: Not hybrid or electric

            • @Big L: You could be right there. I wasn't looking at their Hybrid / EV for the Outback in particular.

      • +1

        The removal of a spare tyre is becoming the status quo. You should probably looking into larger vehicles Prado/Everest/Patrol if you need spare wheels and for driving in rural areas.

        • Exactly. The bulk of these makes are suburban owned, so it's not an issue. It's car reviewer bullshit.

          • @Big L: Saying that the bulk of them are suburban owned so it's not an issue is like saying that the bulk of people don't need hospitals, so they're not required either. That doesn't change the need for the ones that do.

            Even for the suburban owners, what's to say some of them won't want to do a long road trip. Outside of metro there are some vast distances and big states in Australia.

            Not sure how it's "car reviewer bullshit".. I'll be buying a new car within the next few months. It won't be one of these because no full size spare is a practicality issue. These were a consideration until I went through the specs of all their range and saw these didn't come with one. Pretty simple really.

            • -1

              @mrbargainz: Yeah, what if suburban owners want a full size spare to use as a garden ornament, or a marital aid? I didn't think of those options either.

              You've got two options for lite mid-sized off-roaders with a full size spare as standard: RAV4 or Forrester.

              Otherwise buy a spare and put it on the back or roof.

        • -1

          Yes and no. Many people just prefer the extra space that a small SUV can provide and will take it onto beaches, tracks through national parks exploring, etc. none of which warrant spending significantly more, almost double in some cases. Personally even if I didn't take any tracks, or beaches, I'd likely still only buy a sedan with a full sized spare, as some of the places it will go will be miles away from the nearest repair shop and a major detour simply for a tyre would be a pain. Plus only being able to drive at 80Km/h on 110Km/h on those roads is dangerous and a nuisance to other drivers. Completely agreed on it becoming the status quo though. I won't be feeding that push however, I'll be spending my money on manufacturers, or models that do provide them. I might even consider used and pick up a slightly older model with one. Also looking at some of the larger ones too. I would've just gone that route, but the costs are a bit of a joke and haven't really corrected since COVID.

    Any engineers in the room care to explain why the nissan hybrid system economy is so bad?

    AH RIGHT I'M ONE.

    Maybe it's because you got an engine -> generator -> battery -> front/rear motors

    See that generator in step 2? It's actually another motor that's gotta take all that power input from the engine and convert it to electricity.

    Most other hybrids have the engine power in parallel to the electric motor/generator (single unit).

    People think, "oh but with this architecture you run the engine at maximum efficiency". Sorry buddy but real world metrics disagree with your wishful thinking.

    • I'M ANOTHER ONE

      Nissan's way of doing it gets rid of any gearbox, but you have to have both a generator and an electric motor, where a parallel hybrid has to have a gearbox, but only needs a single electric motor to be both generator and motor. Nissan's way also lets you use an Atkinson cycle ICE which is inherently more economical at its efficiency peak, but has poor flexibility.

      It can be efficient in the city because the electric motor is bigger because it has to be able to propel the car without the help of the ICE, which also means it is a more powerful generator when you are slowing down. So you get more energy recovery than if you only had a little electric motor that just helped the ICE.

      But take it out of the city onto the highway and the petrol motor has to drive a generator which has to drive electronics to drive the electric motor, and there's losses at all stages in that process. So its less efficient there.

      The most efficient arrangement is to have the ICE directly drive the wheels at highway speed, then disengage when you leave the highway and let the electric motor do the driving.

      It was Tesla's brilliant idea, a bigger electric motor gives more performance, and also increases energy recovery. F1's new rules for 2026 increase the size of the electric motor and by doing so virtually eliminate the need for rear brakes because the more powerful motor is also a more powerful generator, powerful enough to generate the couple of Gs of braking require, and recover all that energy and put it back in the battery.

      • "The most efficient arrangement is to have the ICE directly drive the wheels at highway speed, then disengage when you leave the highway and let the electric motor do the driving"

        For double the cost?

        • We're talking about hybrids here.

          I have an EV and think hybrids are OK (toyota ones superb), PHEVs pretty shit (unless it's a ute) and ICE cars as dinosaur technology.

      • "The most efficient arrangement is to have the ICE directly drive the wheels at highway speed, then disengage when you leave the highway and let the electric motor do the driving."

        You have just described Honda's serial hybrid system.
