Reports surface that the mass production EV maker is pulling the plug on the LEAF, which may affect buyers in the Philippines
Nissan has plans to release 15 new electric vehicles through the end of the decade, and so far 3 of them, the LEAF, the Ariya, and the Kicks seem to be taking charge. Reports have surfaced that the mass production EV maker is pulling the plug on the LEAF, which may affect buyers in the Philippines who were only introduced to the electric car just two years ago.
“The momentum towards electric mobility is steadily growing. There are more Filipinos looking to shift to more fuel-efficient and eco-friendly options, and that includes vehicles,” said Juan Manuel Hoyos, the recently installed NPI president. Nissan brought the media and some dealers to a local race track at the site of what was the former Clark Air Force Base in Pampanga, Philippines. Executives of the company, led by chief powertrain engineer Naoki Nakada and Alliance powertrain engineering director for e-POWER Akihiro Shibuya introduced the all-new Kicks e-POWER with a walk-through and an exciting track activity.
The Kicks takes away that range-anxiety syndrome that affects so many electric car buyers, not knowing that the shift to electrification has to do with mindset too. Though the movement to EVs has not gained much traction yet in the Philippines, cars like the Kicks may break that syndrome. Toyota has for years sold the Prius, and then introduced many hybrids after.
