Electric Nissan Van
Friday, May 25th, 2018Nissan has long been working to make its operations and vehicles more eco-friendly. This includes the designing and building of all-electric vehicles. Nissan first introduced the all-electric Nissan Leaf, but they are expanding their lineup of electric vehicles. Nissan now has an all-electric van for those that need a bigger cargo capacity, and this new van now has a new battery for extended driving range.
Automotive World tells us, “The Nissan e-NV200 features a new 40 kilowatt-hour battery, which gives the vehicle a range of 300 kilometers under Japan’s JC08 standard. It combines excellent load capacity and a driver-friendly cabin with brisk acceleration and a superior quietness that only a pure electric vehicle can offer.”
The Nissan e-NV200 is a great option for a city business vehicle. It can give you seating for up to seven as well as good cargo capacity. This vehicle also has Quick Charge Capability, so you can get your battery charged in about an hour or less. It is a great work vehicle. Let’s find out more below!
According to Automotive World, “The new e-NV200 can also operate as a mobile power storage unit. The vehicle’s Power Plug, a 100-volt outlet, can provide electricity for tools and equipment. With the optional EV Power Station installed, the Nissan e-NV200 can even supply electricity to offices and shops and serve as a backup power source during blackouts and emergencies.”
The e-NV200 can be a smart mobile office for your business. From carrying passengers and cargo with ease to providing electricity for tools and equipment, this is a great option to help you work smarter. Also, with the new 40 kilowatt-hour battery, this vehicle has a longer range than ever.

From creating all-electric vehicles like the Nissan Leaf to using efficient technologies like LED lighting, Nissan is making their vehicles more eco-friendly. Nissan is also making their operations eco-friendlier. Because of this, the US Environmental Protection Agency is giving Nissan the 2018 Energy Star Partner of the Year Sustained Excellence Award.
Globe Newswire explains the award further, “The 2018 Partner of the Year – Sustained Excellence Awards are bestowed upon companies and other organizations demonstrating continued leadership in energy efficiency and commitment to the ENERGY STAR program. Winners hail from small, family-owned businesses to Fortune 500 organizations – representing energy-efficient products, services, new homes, and buildings in the commercial, industrial and public sectors.”
However, this isn’t the first year the EPA has recognized Nissan’s efforts. This is the seventh consecutive year that the EPA has awarded Nissan for their commitment to improving energy management.
What has Nissan done to receive this energy star award? This award goes to companies that make their operations more energy efficient, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and educate about energy.
According to Globe Newswire, “Nissan’s efforts to reduce energy usage include switching to more efficient technologies like LED lighting, engaging all employees in energy management, and including energy efficiency in design, such as an environmentally friendly paint process that has cut energy usage by more than 30%.”
If environmental issues are important to you, take notice of the steps Nissan has taken to improve its vehicles and operations to make them more energy efficient. You can also upgrade to a Nissan and help the environment out as well. The Nissan Leaf is an all-electric vehicle, so it is not gasoline-powered.
