for its electric vehicles in Europe following a call for tender launched in early 2010, the French-Japanese alliance has announced.
The companies declared that the deal will bring electric vehicle customers 'a full set of innovative services specific to the new market', alongside conventional roadside breakdown assistance and towing in the 21 following European countries: France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, UK, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Norway, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden and Switzerland.
Customer deliveries of the Alliance's first 100% electric vehicle, the Nissan LEAF have begun in December in the United States, Japan and Portugal, to be followed by other selected markets in Europe.
