The Nissan e-NV200 is taking on a 35-day European electric tour to show how its zero-emission drivetrain can contribute to a more sustainable future.
Starting the challenge in Barcelona and travelling along Europe’s Electric Corridor, Lionel Suissa and his Electrip team will end the tour in Norway’s North Cape.
Gareth Dunsmore, director of electric vehicles, Nissan Europe said, ‘As Nissan electric vehicle sales increase, the charging infrastructure continues to grow apace – transforming the face of all-electric driving. With over 4,000 publically accessible charging points across Europe, drivers are able to travel across the continent, free from range anxiety.’
Lionel added, ‘As a passionate advocate of the role EVs can play in improving air quality, I think it’s crucial that the younger generation see just how easy and enjoyable electric driving can be. Electrip is designed to show off Europe’s charging network and demonstrate to people just how capable an electric vehicle truly is. The Nissan e-NV200 is the ideal vehicle for our European adventure.’
