2010 Nissan-Renault BEV (based on the Cube) on its inaugural US Tour
San Diego, CA. -- The Nissan-Renault alliance announced that Nissan and San Diego Gas & Electric utility company (SDG&E) are forming a partnership to advance zero-emission mobility by promoting the development of a battery electric vehicle (BEV) charging network.
Nissan will introduce BEVs into the US in 2010 and will mass market BEVs globally in 2012. The announcement coincides with the first stop on a coast-to-coast tour of Nissan’s BEV Prototype, a vehicle that’s powered by Nissan’s Li-Ion pack and an electric motor. While this vehicle does not represent the design of Nissan’s electric vehicle that will be sold in 2010, the EV Prototype is an indicator of what’s to come in zero-emission mobility.
“Nissan through the Renault-Nissan Alliance has committed to being a global leader in zero-emission vehicles,” said Dominique Thormann, senior vice president, administration and finance, Nissan North America. “Nissan and SDG&E have a shared belief that the introduction and expansion of electric vehicles is one of the best solutions to reducing CO2 emissions. This partnership is an important step in making zero emissions a reality in San Diego.”
As part of the agreement, Nissan will assist SDG&E in BEV acquisition as well as work with SDG&E to develop a charging infrastructure for BEVs. Together, Nissan and SDG&E will work towards the implementation and maintenance of a battery charging network.
“We are proud to be embarking on this clean transportation initiative with Nissan,” said Debra L. Reed, president and chief executive officer of SDG&E. “This collaborative effort is the first step in making San Diego ‘plug-in ready.’ We’re excited about creating new job opportunities for our region and furthering San Diego’s vision of being at the center of growth for clean technologies.”
