Titan Truckumentary Chapter 4

If you’ve ever driven a 2016 Nissan LEAF®, you probably already know it is the life of the party. Now, the LEAF is taking that compliment literally, by supplying power to an entire powerless block party. Nissan demonstrated the “Vehicle to Home” capability of the LEAF at Kensington Presents, a donation-based outdoor music and food festival. The Nissan LEAF® was able to power this event through the DC Quickcharge Port, which takes the 360 volt lithium ion battery voltage and converts it to 100 volts of AC power through the internal inverter. This technology could eventually be used to power homes, or even an entire building using a fleet of Nissan LEAFs. Join the party by watching the video below! Nissanusa.

In the past few years, Nissan has seen its customer base in the United States continue to grow as they release stylish, innovative, and affordable vehicles. This is especially evident after their record-breaking sales year in 2015, selling 1,484,918 vehicles last year. Due to this growing success, Nissan has made a decision to invest even further in their U.S. operations, including ramping up production of their best-selling vehicles such as the Altima, Sentra, Pathfinder, Maxima, Rogue, Murano, LEAF, Versa, and the next-generation of the TITAN. There are over 22,000 Nissan employees across the United States, working everywhere from Nissan North America Corporate Headquarters in Franklin, Tennessee to Nissan Canton Vehicle Assembly Plant in Canton, Mississippi and totaling a payroll of $1.1 billion. Many people are not aware of this, but almost 80 percent of Nissan vehicles are built right here in the United States.
