Nissan had a bunch of trolls posting in various forums on how the epower was a much better EV because you don’t have to plug it in.

My guess is it will replace their failing CVTs, be an up sell while possibly being cheaper to produce.

Knowing Nissan their ECVT probably costs much less than an auto transmission while being less efficient than a Prius.

Ah well
Time will tell
