Leading the way at 2021 CIIE is the new Nissan e-POWER Sylphy, the first vehicle to offer the award-winning e-POWER technology for customers in China. With e-POWER, drivers enjoy the benefits of a 100% electric motor-driven system and a gasoline engine available as needed to charge the battery pack. By 2025, Nissan is scheduled to release six e-POWER vehicles for China, part of the Nissan Intelligent Mobility vision to change how vehicles are powered, driven, and integrated into society.

As a pioneer in the electric vehicle segment, Nissan will display several technologies and products at the exhibition, including the company’s first electric vehicle built in China, Sylphy Zero Emission. Built on the same platform as the world’s first mass-market EV, Nissan LEAF, Sylphy Zero Emission is the first strategic model for implementation of Nissan Intelligent Mobility in China.

In addition to explaining Nissan’s electrification strategy for future mobility, the exhibit will outline the company’s global carbon neutrality goals, show the evolution and trajectory of a more efficient internal combustion engine, and highlight Intelligent Drive, Intelligent Integration, and Intelligent Mobility.

Akihisa Suzuki, executive vice president of Nissan (China) Investment Co., Ltd. said: “Nissan aims to achieve carbon neutrality across its operations and the lifecycle of its products by 2050¹. On the path to reaching carbon neutrality, by the early 2030s, every new Nissan vehicle in key markets will be electrified.”

He said Nissan’s commitment to China is manifest in numerous ways beyond wheels on the road. For example, the Nissan Dream Classroom, a partnership with UNESCO, has delivered educational programs to 1 million elementary school students in more than 750 schools in 15 Chinese provinces by the end of 2020. In the Nissan Dream Classroom, students learn about automotive design, manufacturing, technology and the environment.
