Nissan begins global proving tests for NV200-based electric vehicles

YOKOHAMA —

Nissan Motor Co said Monday it will begin global proving tests from later this month of an electric vehicle (EV) based on the compact commercial vehicle NV200.

For the first phase, the Japan Post Service Co will carry out a test. One test vehicle will be provided to carry out postal collection and delivery tasks for approximately two months in the city of Yokohama to evaluate the vehicle’s capabilities under a customer’s normal usage conditions. Later, similar proving tests will be carried out both in Japan and Europe, where similar evaluations will be carried out with other companies.

    How many different types of electricity are there in the world? 100v, 110 v, 240v etc. ... How many plug types? Will this car come with an adapter if I buy one and decide to take it home?

    the car is slated to be the next NY taxi and they won the contract only because the car was easily convertible in to electric so, they'd better get the tests right.
