Conyers Nissan is Proud to Announce Nissan is Donating Two Electric-Car Quick Chargers to Atlanta

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Atlanta, Georgia, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) January 12, 2012 -- ATLANTA -
Nissan, the maker of the world’s first all-electric car for the mass market - the Nissan LEAF - is donating two electric vehicle fast chargers to the city of Atlanta. The chargers will be installed in two of the city’s community improvement districts: Downtown and Midtown.

"This day marks yet another milestone for electric vehicle readiness, and our great relationship with Nissan. We are thrilled at Nissan's support and leadership and look forward to significant growth for EV technology in 2012," said Denise Quarles, the City of Atlanta's director of sustainability.

Nissan developed these revolutionary fast chargers, which first debuted in Japan in November 2011. Nissan has begun taking orders for these DC quick charge units, which soon will be available in the United States. The quick charging unit is smaller, easier to use and is much less expensive than similar fast chargers available on the market today. The 480-volt fast charger can charge a Nissan LEAF from a fully depleted state to 80 percent battery capacity in less than 30 minutes.

“Atlanta has been leading the way in preparing for the growing number of electric vehicles on the road,” said Jon Brancheau, vice president, Marketing, Nissan Americas. “We appreciate the city’s efforts and know these chargers will be put to good use charging the Nissan LEAF and helping to reduce CO2 emissions.”

The Nissan LEAF is touring the country, stopping in various cities showing consumers the benefits of owning a Nissan LEAF and letting them test drive the all-electric vehicle. The Drive Electric Tour’s next stop is this weekend in Atlanta.
