Blog of RENAULT NISSAN Alliance

The Renault-Nissan Alliance is at the forefront of the electric vehicle revolution and the world leader in the future of sustainable mobility.

 

 

Did you know that:

 

• The Alliance has sold more zero emission cars and vans than all of the other major motor manufacturers combined?

 

• The Alliance has sold more than 200,000 EVs worldwide?

 

• Those 200,000 EV sales means that 200 million litres of petroleum has not extracted, shipped or burned into the atmosphere?

 

• The Nissan LEAF is the all time best selling EV in the world?

 

• In 2014, Nissan LEAF sales in Europe jumped by 32%, representing one in four of all EVs sold in the region?

 

• Together, Nissan LEAF owners have driven more than one billion kilometres, saving more than 180 million kilograms of CO2 emission in the process?

 

 

Although electric vehicles are as old as the car itself, the modern EV is still in its infancy. And as charging networks expand, there can be no doubt that the electric vehicle is the true future of mobility. 

 

As Alliance chairman and CEO Carlos Ghosn says: “Over the past century we’ve spent trillions of dollars developing a sophisticated global infrastructure around petroleum. Gas stations are now so common in the industrialised world that people often forget conventional cars have a limited range.

 

“We are in the early stages of building the same type of infrastructure around EV charging. And whenever we see a concentrated initiative to boost EV infrastructure, we see EV sales grow.”

 

A change is coming and The Alliance is leading the way.
