Nissan to Add Electric Vehicle Quick Charging at More Than 100 U.S. Leaf-Certified Dealerships

The units, which use the CHAdeMO standard, can charge the vehicle from depleted to about 80 percent in about 30 minutes.

Brendan Jones, director of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Strategy, Nissan said:  "Nissan is undertaking a proactive, multi-pronged approach to expand charging infrastructure to enhance awareness of electric cars like the LEAF and instill range confidence in potential customers. We know that available charging infrastructure opens the doors for more Nissan LEAF sales."

This quick charging initiative follows a 24-dealer pilot program, which Nissan rolled out at dealerships in the markets of San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Sacramento and Seattle. During the pilot, Nissan has been able to study the frequency of use for the chargers and the impact that charging has on the dealer's operations.

"We are located at the intersection of two of the country's busiest freeways, so having a quick charger available for the thousands of commuters who drive by us every day is a boon for business," said Richard Luengo, general manager, Nissan of Downtown Los Angeles, which is averaging about 10 charging sessions per day at its quick charger. "There is a steady stream of folks using the charger, and we've generated significant good will in the LEAF community. Over the past four months, our dealership has seen a marked improvement in sales, and some of that is clearly attributable to the new quick charger."

So far, the active chargers in the program have been popular. Since the pilot began, about 5,600 charging sessions have taken place, with each location averaging about 4.5 sessions per day. That figure has been steadily on the rise as awareness has increased. Over the period of June 21-July 1, the number of charging sessions increased about 12.5 percent compared to the previous two-week period.
Installation of new chargers will begin in east coast markets, starting this summer. By April 1, 2014, Nissan expects to have quick chargers installed and operational at 100 additional dealerships.

Nissan's charging partner AeroVironment will supply the quick chargers and will provide installation services for nearly all of the new quick charging units.

Williams And NISMO To Collaborate On Performance Road Cars

Williams’ technology offshoot, Williams Advanced Engineering, will join the engineering development team from NISMO to help develop new Williams-enhanced Nissans that will start launching from as early as next year.

Williams Advanced Engineering has a proven record of bringing Formula One technology to the road relatively quickly and will aid NISMO mainly in the areas of aerodynamics, simulation and material science.

Unfortunately, no mention of specific models was made during today’s announcement, though we already know of several new NISMO models in the works. The most logical choice for the first Williams-enhanced model would be the Nissan GT-R NISMO due out next year. The car is tipped to deliver more than 570 horsepower and come with plenty of carbon fiber to help shed the pounds.
NISMO is also planning a more extreme level of tuning which it plans to group under the “RS” label, so it’s possible that these may end up receiving the first round of Williams upgrades.

At this point you may also be wondering why NISMO didn’t team up with Red Bull Racing, which Nissan’s upmarket division Infiniti is a primary sponsor of. The boss of NISMO, Shoichi Miyatani, explains that it was Williams’ past performance in the area of road car development that was the key reason it was picked over other partners including its Formula One rival Red Bull Racing.

“Williams have a proven history of making racing technology benefit road cars, and we look forward to starting this relationship during a period of intensive product development for NISMO,” Miyatani said.
