JAKARTA - Japanese automotive manufacturer Nissan announced that it has achieved sales of 1 million units for the electric vehicle segment globally.

Electric vehicles are not new to Nissan. Compared to other manufacturers, Nissan first marketed EV cars since a decade ago.

Nissan first introduced its first electric car, the Leaf, in December 2010. Using e-Power technology assembled by the Yokohama factory, the Leaf became a mainstay for Nissan in the electrification realm.

Reporting from Nissan Global's official website, Tuesday, July 25, the total sales of the Nissan Leaf have since it was first launched by more than 650,000 vehicles worldwide, spread across 50 different countries in Asia, North America, and Europe.

For years relying on the Leaf in the electrification segment, Nissan introduced the latest EV model, Nissan Ariya in 2022. This became the first electric-powered SUV from Nissan to have cutting-edge technology, such as driving all e-4ORCE wheels and ProPilot 2.0 as an aid to drivers.

Having a futuristic and environmentally friendly design, Nissan Ariya won several awards, including the Auto Color 2021 Award at Japan and the Red Dot Design Award in Germany.

The next model is Sakura, which is Nissan's first mini EV-sized vehicle. With its cute shape accompanied by other advantages, Sakura has sold as many as 50,000 units since its launch a year ago.

Because of this uniqueness, Nissan Sakura also won several awards such as 2022-2023 Japan Car of the Year, 2023 RJC Car of the Year, and 2023 JAHFA Car of the Year.

In detail, Nissan has sold several EV models to several regions:

Nissan is also rumored to be presenting more electrified models in its strategic plan, "Nissan Ambition 2030". The manufacturer plans to launch 19 EV models by the end of the decade.

In addition, Nissan will also launch the latest all-solid-state battery technology, developed internally in 2028 to expand EV lineup around the world.
