Nissan looks to an electric future
Nissan has begun testing the market for electric vehicles with its concept Denki Cube, which was unveiled at the New York Auto Show earlier this month.
The Japanese carmaker said it would launch a commercially produced electric car for fleet buyers in the US in 2010 and for retail customers in 2012.
Based on the standard Cube minicar, which has been available in Japan since 1998, Nissan claimed the Denki surpasses the hybrids of rival manufacturers in green terms as it is all-electric and produces zero-emissions.
