How can we make your world greener?
By making a sincere commitment to the development of ecologically minded transportation.
Nissan already has two electric vehicles in production in North America, the ALTRA EV and HYPERMINI, as well as a hybrid electric, Japan's TINO HYBRID. As for the ALTRA EV, a spacious 4-passenger vehicle with a 75-mph maximum speed, it's the first production electric vehicle to use state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries. The result is up to an 80-mile "real-world" range and a 5-hour recharge time.
Nissan recently joined the California Fuel Cell Partnership to advance this new automobile technology that could move the world toward practical and affordable environmental solutions. The partnership will place about 50 fuel cell passenger cars and fuel cell buses on the road between 2000 and 2003.
Nissan is also doing its part when it comes to our regular lineup of cars and 4WDs, and our efforts haven't gone unnoticed. For our innovations in improving fuel economy and reducing ozone-depleting hydrofluorocarbons, Nissan received the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's 1999 Climate Protection Award.
Nissan is the only automaker to receive such a commendation.
