Nissan is increasing U.S. production capacity by adding a third shift at its Tennessee and Mississippi plants to support the 2027 Rogue hybrid launch, aiming to boost annual domestic output to roughly 1 million units by 2030. The new e-Power series hybrid technology, launching this spring with gas imports followed by domestic manufacturing next year, is positioned as a competitive alternative to Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V hybrids in the small crossover segment.
