NISSAN IN EUROPE LAUNCHES ELECTRIC MOBILITY
EDUCATIONAL MICRO SITE
ROLLE, Switzerland (March 3, 2010) - Nissan in Europe has launched an educational micro site - http://www.electric-mobility.com/ - aimed at raising the public's awareness about the benefits of electric mobility including the basic workings of an electric car, the driving experience, the new EV lifestyle, the cost of ownership and environmental matters.
The micro site is the first step in an educational campaign by Nissan to help its zero emission governmental partners spread the word about electric vehicles and their advantages.
In the near future, http://www.electric-mobility.com/ will be linked to all Nissan in Europe websites, as well as the websites of its zero emission partners, including Portugal, Ireland, One North East in the UK and the Principality of Monaco.
Through http://www.electric-mobility.com/ and social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, Nissan and its zero emission partners hope to create a reliable source of information on electric mobility for all Europeans interested in a cleaner future.
Nissan will be meeting with its zero emission governmental partners at the Geneva Motor Show, as well as online bloggers, to discuss how to further promote electric mobility in Europe.
The http://www.electric-mobility.com/ site has been launched as Nissan gears up for the introduction of Nissan LEAF - the world's first purpose-designed zero emission vehicle - which will go on sale in Japan, the US and Europe in late 2010.
Together with its alliance partner Renault, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., has signed about 50 partnerships with governments, cities and other organizations around the world for the promotion of zero emission mobility.
