It is not very common to hear car manufacturers praise his competence, but that is exactly what is currently happening. CEO of Nissan, Carlos Ghosn, sounds pretty excited about the news of the huge amount of orders presale has received Tesla for your Model 3 , and rightly so , as this speaks volumes about the growing acceptance of electric vehicles among consumers.
During a tour of an engine plant in Japan, Automotive News he asked Ghosn about Tesla and next to go on sale sedan for about $ 35,000, the Model 3. "The fact that so many people are willing to pay an advance this car will be available until the end of 2017, is a good sign , "said Nissan executive AN. "Finally, good competition for electric cars are taking pace."
Technically, the game leads Nissan electric at the moment, if you include their European trading partner, Renault. Together, the two companies have sold more than 300,000 electric cars worldwide, of which two thirds have the Nissan brand.
Currently, Tesla is approaching the 300,000 orders presale its Model 3, whose start of production is scheduled until the end of 2017. Even if you only got to meet one-third of those orders, (US $ 1,000 advance are refundable) Tesla would double the number of Nissan Leafs sold in 2015.
We must also take into account the imminent arrival of the Chevrolet Bolt . With both cars, the market for electric vehicles is about to heat up , putting pressure on Nissan to keep it competitive with an older model. Leaf recently he relaunched with a larger battery pack, but its range of range of 107 miles will be only half of what they offer Tesla and Chevrolet.
