Dubai, UAE (26 March 2025) – Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. today showcased a bold array of new and refreshed models at an exclusive event in Japan, along with next-generation technologies set to debut during FY25 and FY26. Loaded with innovative features, the new products will play a crucial role in elevating the company's performance, boosting customer loyalty, attracting new buyers, increasing profitability, and promoting sustainable growth.
In the Middle East, Nissan and INFINITI are set to redefine driving excitement and luxury. Following the successful launches of the all-new Patrol, all-new KICKS, and all-new Magnite in FY24, Nissan will further strengthen its product lineup in the coming year with a series of exciting new models — including the expansion of the Nissan Z lineup with the introduction of the Z NISMO, delivering a track-ready sports car experience for performance enthusiasts.
INFINITI in the Middle East will enhance its luxury SUV range starting with a refreshed three-row luxury QX60 SUV in FY25, alongside a new SPORT package for the full-sized QX80 SUV. In FY26, INFINITI will launch the all-new QX65 crossover coupe, inspired by the pioneering INFINITI FX, offering a stylish two-row option in the competitive mid-size crossover segment.
As part of Nissan’s global business plan, The Arc, these models will play a pivotal role in meeting customer demands and boosting brand presence in the region. Beyond the Middle East, Nissan’s upcoming lineup will feature hybrid technologies (including e-POWER and plug-in hybrids), next-generation EVs, and advanced internal combustion engines (ICE).
Guillaume Cartier, Chief Performance Officer, said: “Today, we unveil our redefined market approach and tailored product strategy designed to better meet customer needs and drive top-line growth. Through powertrain diversification and new models, we will provide a broader range of options that cater to diverse customer preferences, further distinguishing Nissan and INFINITI brands.”
Ivan Espinosa, Chief Planning Officer, added: “Over the next two years, we are excited to roll out an impressive lineup that will redefine the road! This includes the reimagined Nissan LEAF, a daring new Micra EV, and a refreshed range of SUVs. Our next-generation e-POWER promises new levels of refinement and efficiency. This is just the beginning of an exciting journey ahead.”
All-new Nissan LEAF
Reimagined as a sleek and spacious family-friendly crossover, the third-generation LEAF features improved aerodynamics, advanced EV architecture, and is available with 19-inch alloy wheels and a panoramic moonroof. In North America, it will debut with a NACS charging port, offering access to Tesla’s Supercharger network. Built on the CMF-EV platform, it promises significant range improvements with Nissan’s new 3-in-1 EV powertrain. Further details will be shared mid-year.
Next-generation e-POWER
Nissan’s third-generation e-POWER hybrid system, benefiting from over 1.6 million units produced since 2016, will deliver up to 15% better high-speed fuel economy, lower emissions, and reduced noise. Using a 1.5L dedicated engine and a new 5-in-1 system shared with Nissan’s latest EV powertrain, it will debut on the Qashqai in Europe in FY25, followed by the next-gen Rogue in North America and a large minivan in Japan in FY26.
