Fully electrified in Europe by 2030
Nissan will immediately stop investing a euro in the development of combustion engines for passenger cars. Nissan is also making extensive efforts to electrify its European model range.
Nissan explains its European plans for the future in the field of electrification, plans that include a halt to the development of combustion engines for passenger cars. Nissan is no longer investing in petrol and diesel machines and is fully focused on the transition to full electrification. From 2023, Nissan will no longer launch any new model in Europe with only an internal combustion engine.
Nissan aims that by 2026 about 75 percent of the brand’s new cars sold in Europe will have an electrified powertrain. By 2030, every new Nissan sold should have an electrified powertrain. Please note that this does not only concern fully electric models, but also cars with (plug-in) hybrid powertrains.
Nissan recently introduced a hybrid powertrain for the Juke and has the innovative e-Power machines on the roll for both the Qashqai and the new X-Trail, which is yet to be released in the Netherlands. The all-electric Ariya will also be launched this year. Of course, Nissan has had the Leaf on the menu for years. The EV range will soon be completed with the all-electric variant of the Townstar, Nissan’s version of the Kangoo.
Nissan Micra teaser
The Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance is investing €23 billion in electric vehicles over the next five years. Until 2030, the partnership will come with no fewer than 35 new EVs, spread over five different platforms. One of the new electric cars that Nissan has in the pipeline is a compact hatchback. The successor to the Nissan Micra will be a technical brother of the electric Renault 5, which is also yet to be marketed. They will both soon use the CMF-B-EV platform.
