Nissan

Nissan started in 1911 and built the first-ever Dat Car (Datsun) for the Japanese market in 1914. Now they make cars for everybody, all over the world. Nissan opened their New Zealand headquarters in 1963, and so became the first Japanese brand to be assembled in New Zealand. At Nissan, they do everything with the customer in mind. Every action taken, and every decision made, is done with the utmost care, precision and quality because ultimately, it’s all for the driver.

Nissan’s leadership position in electric vehicles means they are ahead of the curve in expanding their range of zero emission vehicles, bringing the unique pleasures of clean, quiet power to more and more people worldwide. Up and coming is Nissan’s e-POWER, a 100% electric motor-driven PHEV system that gives you the same high-performance driving experience as an all-electric car. It uses the EV technology perfected in the Nissan LEAF and adds an efficient, petrol engine to charge the lightweight, lithium-ion battery pack when necessary.
