KUALA LUMPUR: Edaran Tan Chong Motor Sdn Bhd (Edaran Tan Chong), the sole distributor of Nissan cars in Malaysia, is going to launch the all-electric Nissan LEAF in the third quarter of this year (3Q13), executive director Datuk David Chen said yesterday.
The network expansion of electric vehicles’ (EVs) charging stations in Kuala Lumpur and other cities would support the much anticipated launch of the Nissan LEAF, he told reporters at the launch of the EV charging station at Bangsar Shopping Centre, here.
Chen said the EV charging stations were initiatives by the private sector to support government’s efforts to go green, promote sustainable mobility and set up an EV charging infrastructure in Malaysia.
“We are indeed glad today (Wednesday) that Bangsar Shopping Centre has joined us in sharing this same vision and commitment towards a greener environment and healthier lifestyle,” he added.
The EV charging station at Bangsar Shopping Centre is the fourth to be established. — Bernama
