At the Nissan Technology Square, Nissan will showcase how the company's automotive technologies address the environment, safety and innovation. Nissan's new electric vehicle, LEAF, will be on display for the first time in the Southern Hemisphere. Visitors can experience examples of Nissan's innovation and the future of automobiles through the exhibition, interactive displays and demonstrations.
"We aim to start introduction of LEAF in Australia by 2012. Our aim is for the Australian people to gain more awareness of Zero-emission mobility while enjoying LEAF as well as our advanced and friendly technologies. Both environment and safety are important factors for Nissan not only as an automotive company but as a citizen in a sustainable society," said Dan Thompson, Managing Director of Nissan Australia.
Australia joins other major world economies like India, Dubai and Korea in staging Technology Square. At the exhibition booth, Nissan is going to hold programs for university students to share Nissan's current and advanced automotive technologies.
