Nissan today announced a
proposal for new mobility in a
sustainable zero emission
society and an electric vehicle
(EV) embodying its proposal,
‘NISSAN New Mobility CONCEPT’.
Nissan continues to envision new
possibilities realised by EVs.
One proposal is a sustainable,
efficient and convenient mode of
transportation focussing on the
increase of elderly and single
households, as well as the trend
of driving short-distances or in
smaller groups. NISSAN New
Mobility CONCEPT is our proposal
to make this a reality.
Four keywords outline the NISSAN
New Mobility CONCEPT:
-
Innovative – New two-seater
compact mobility for various
needs and occasions
-
Easy – Size which enables
anyone to drive and park
easily
-
Safe – Manoeuvrability
equivalent to motorbikes
with greater safety
-
Clean – No emissions while
driving
Aiming to be a global leader in
zero-emission mobility with
Alliance partner Renault, Nissan
will launch Nissan LEAF, the
first 100% electric,
mass-marketed, zero-emission car
in December 2010 in Japan and
the United States, and in early
2011 in Europe. In addition to
the development and production
of EVs, Nissan is taking a
comprehensive approach to
promote sustainable mobility.
This includes Nissan’s
engagement with more than 80
zero-emission partnerships
worldwide with countries,
cities, organisations and other
key stakeholders, the deployment
of charging infrastructure,
second-life use of lithium-ion
batteries in EVs and the
promotion of recycling parts
used in vehicle production. |
