Nissan has started leveraging its fleet of heavy-duty electric trucks to transport newly manufactured vehicles to dealerships and customers.

Nissan has taken a significant leap forward in its latest endeavour to combat emissions. The automaker is set to debut an innovative fleet of new, fully electric, heavy-duty vehicles as part of a pioneering trial collaboration with Nikola and Kenworth.

Following a strong start with the introduction of the LEAF in 2011, Nissan has struggled to keep pace as other manufacturers have rolled out their own electric vehicles in subsequent years.

Wasn’t the Nissan LEAF ahead of its time, becoming the best-selling electric vehicle in Europe just six months into 2018? Despite the wait, Nissan took more than a decade to unveil its second fully electric vehicle, the Ariya crossover SUV, which finally debuted last year after multiple delays.

The 2023 Nissan Ariya launches at $43,190, boasting a range of options, including the 63 kWh battery and 250 kW motor for 205 miles, or upgrade to the 87 kWh battery and 278 kW motor for an extended 394 miles.

Last year, Nissan announced plans to invest $500 million in its Canton Automotive Assembly plant in Mississippi, enabling the production of two new electric vehicles, potentially including a midsize electric pickup truck similar to the Frontier.

As plans for two new electric vehicles (EVs) in 2025 unfold, Nissan is exploring alternative ways to reduce emissions. Japan’s leading automaker pioneers an innovative trial, introducing all-electric heavy-duty trucks for the delivery of fresh vehicles.

As part of its media roll-out, Nissan has collaborated with Nikola and Kenworth to develop an electric truck capable of hauling standard car carriers.

The company, which has collaborated closely with BMW on the production of high-performance EV battery packs, will be pouring $1.5 billion into the construction and equipment of this massive 2 million-square-foot factory.

At the launch, Chris Types, Vice President of Supply Chain Management at Nissan North America, noted that

As we progress toward carbon neutrality across our organization, the introduction of battery-electric vehicle (BEV) technology for brand-new car stock represents a pivotal step forward.

Primary deliveries are slated for Downey Nissan in California, transporting the all-new 2023 Ariya electric crossover.

Nikola’s TRE BEV, a pioneering zero-emission class 8 electric semi-truck, boasts an impressive maximum range of 330 miles, paired with 645 continuous horsepower.

Nissan intends to expand its electric vehicle fleet in the Los Angeles area, building on the success of an initial deployment of four battery-powered cars. The automobile manufacturer intends to capitalise on lessons learned from the trial, likely expanding its portfolio of electric vehicles (EVs) for diverse logistical applications.

As Nissan strives to achieve carbon neutrality across all operations by 2050, electric vehicles are poised to occupy a pivotal role.

Electrek’s Take

Now, that is cool. Electric-powered trucks transporting charging infrastructure for electric cars. The grand tapestry of time stretches out before us, a slow-motion drama that plays out in moments we barely grasp.

Nissan is a pioneer in integrating electric vehicles (EVs) into its delivery fleet, but it won’t be long before other companies follow suit? Let’s hope this initiative will help accelerate Nissan’s electric vehicle deployment.
