This month, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., and FedEx Express, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. and the world’s largest express transportation company, will start testing the Nissan e-NV200, a 100% electric light commercial vehicle, under real conditions in Brazil.

The trial, which will take place in the city of Rio de Janeiro, where Nissan do Brasil’s headquarter is located, is part of the vehicle’s global assessment and development program, which is being carried out jointly by the two companies.

This will mark the first time for the model to run on roads on the American continent. So far, the two partners have tested the e-NV200 in Japan, in the United Kingdom and Singapore. Trials are also planned for the United States in the near future.
