Developing high-energy-density batteries for EVs

It's been a long road for Nissan from its 1947 Tama EV to its advanced prototype ZEV BladeGlider sports car, but that road still stretches to-and far beyond-the technology horizon, as it continues to refine electric propulsion solutions.

The company claims world leadership in ZEV technology following the 2010 introduction of the Leaf EV, the first modern-era battery-electric passenger car. The second generation Leaf will make its premiere in September.
