Nissan Intelligent Mobility To Unveiled At Geneva Motor Show

Nissan announced Nissan Intelligent Mobility vision at Geneva. This will guide Nissan product evolution, will anchor critical company decisions around how cars are powered, how cars are driven, and how cars integrate into society, all while staying focused on creating more enjoyable driving experiences.

Nissan Motors, CEO, Carlos Ghosn said: "Our Intelligent Mobility vision is a framework to move customers around the world towards a safer and more sustainable future."

"To realize this vision, Nissan has launched a long-term strategy, supported by significant R&D investments. This enabled Nissan to introduce the breakthrough LEAF, the world's first mass production EV, in 2010 - years before any of our competitors.

It has also driven our development of cutting-edge autonomous drive technologies, which will be available in a range of mass production models by 2020.

These steps are allowing Nissan to deliver the benefits of EV and autonomous drive innovations to as many customers as possible and, ultimately, to lead the way toward a new era of mobility."

At the core of Nissan Intelligent Mobility are three areas of innovation:

Nissan Intelligent Driving - creating more driver confidence, spearheaded by Nissan's autonomous drive technology, Piloted Drive

Nissan Intelligent Power - more efficiency, more power, spearheaded by electric vehicles (EV)

Nissan Intelligent Integration - new links between vehicles and society

Each area represents cutting edge technological advances by Nissan: safety innovations through autonomous technology, such as high-stability control and high-reliability drive systems; high-efficiency powertrains, including alternative and conventional fuel engines with advanced transmissions; and energy management solutions.

Yet beyond the technical specifications, Nissan is focusing on the driver and passenger experience with Intelligent Mobility and bringing those experiences to consumers now. All told, it's a story of how Nissan is making driving more personal, empowering and exhilarating.

Nissan Intelligent Driving

Nissan's Intelligent Driving is foremost about performance, comfort and safety, removing the stress from a daily commute or minimizing the risk of unsafe conditions.

Many of these advances are already available, as drivers can rely today on vehicles to recognize danger or take appropriate action to enhance safety.

Nissan is leading with its Safety Shield technologies like Lane Departure Warning and Forward Emergency Braking, and will advance this leadership into autonomous drive technologies, available to all customers on core models in the range.

Nissan will launch multiple vehicles with autonomous drive technology in the next four years in Europe, the United States, Japan and China.

The technology will be installed on mainstream, mass-market cars at affordable prices and the first model will come to Japan this year. An on-road demo event in Europe in 2016 will showcase the maturity of Nissan's autonomous drive technology.

In 2017, the Nissan Qashqai will become the first Piloted Drive vehicle available in Europe.

Nissan Global Marketing and Sales, executive vice president, Daniele Schillaci said: "Autonomous technologies have been part of our R&D activities for a long time."

"We've done extensive and ongoing on-road testing since 2013. This verified the integrity and versatility of Nissan's Piloted Drive engineering in real-world scenarios. Our autonomous technology is additive to the driving experience you have today, offering more enjoyable driving and less stress."

Nissan Intelligent Power

Nissan has been the leading automotive brand in electric vehicle technology and sales. Nissan believes that quiet, yet powerful, acceleration with an increased range is essential to ensure an incredible driving experience. Nissan is boosting EV battery energy density and performance, represented by the 60 kWh battery and up to 550km autonomy, in the Nissan IDS Concept, which is making its European premiere at Geneva.

Nissan technologies also reduce charging time, and develop EV potential in other innovative ways. Alternate sources of on-board electric power, such as fuel cells, will further encourage fuel diversity and renewable energy development. Also on the path of Intelligent Power is the further improvement of downsized turbo and X-TRONIC transmissions for both fuel efficiency and seamless response and acceleration.

Schillaci continued: "Nissan is exploring a wide range of energy sources for tomorrow's vehicles, and we recognize our role in continuously investing in multiple technologies."

"The Nissan LEAF electric vehicles have now driven over 2.2 billion kilometers by highly satisfied customers, which is proving our capabilities in terms of electric vehicles and in terms of our ability to introduce advanced, intelligent technologies.
