Nissan showcases Electric Ecosystem designed to deliver the future of driving today

News

The "˜Nissan Electric Ecosystem Experience' is being staged on the Spanish Island of Tenerife, demonstrating the brand's commitment to Nissan Intelligent Mobility to transform the way people drive, and beyond the car, the way we can all live, creating a more exciting and sustainable future.

At the heart of the Nissan Electric Ecosystem Experience is the opportunity for VIP's to drive the new Nissan LEAF, the world's best-selling 100% electric vehicle, as well as an enhanced e-NV200, which gives users an extra 100km of range through its new 40kWh battery. Nissan also unveiled updates on its infrastructure and energy plans.

Philippe Saillard, Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Nissan Europe, commented: "Nissan kick-started the electric vehicle revolution almost a decade ago. In that time we've sold more EV's than any other manufacturer on the planet. But this is just the beginning. Through our vehicles and investments in infrastructure and energy services, we are on a mission to look beyond the car and transform the way we all live. This is the electric ecosystem and through our Nissan Intelligent Mobility vision, we will revolutionise the industry and modern life as we know it."

Nissan is partnering with the Institute of Technology and Renewable Energies (ITER) to host the Electric Ecosystem Experience at ITER's complex in Tenerife. With 25 years of experience in engineering and telecom, ITER has built a bioclimatic site powered by renewable energy from wind farms and solar panels.

Nissan's continuing commitment to EV infrastructure

At Futures 3.0, Nissan announced its plan to expand its existing outdoor charging network by 20% over the next 18 months. Working with EV fast-charging standard CHAdeMO, Nissan has already helped build Europe's most comprehensive charging network, with more than 4,700 quick-chargers installed across the region.

The company is working with its leading partners, business owners and local administrations across Europe to ensure that future deployments are focused on providing maximum convenience to its drivers. New charging points will be located on highways and throughout key European towns and cities. Nissan is involved in 11 Pan-European projects to help develop quick charger networks (more details on the projects in appendix).

Energy Partnerships "˜free' energy breakthrough for EV drivers

Nissan has also reiterated its bold mission revealed at Futures 3.0 to offer customers free power for their EVs.

Over the past year in Denmark, Nissan has been testing this revolutionary new way of driving. Going forward, this has become an offer open to all fleet customers throughout the country. Using Nissan bi-directional charging, customers can draw energy from the grid to power their car or van and then "˜sell' it back to the grid for others to use. This means, once a nominal charge has been paid by the business for the installation of a V2G charger, there are no fuel or energy costs; just free power for their EV.

And Denmark is just the start. In the UK, Nissan has collaborated with OVO Energy to allow customers to purchase an xStorage home energy unit at a discounted price, enabling them to "˜sell' back energy to the grid. It can result in an additional expected income for users averaging £590 / €647 per year.

Nissan is already exploring other opportunities across Europe to make "˜free' power for EVs a milestone for the future.
