BEIJING, Jul 09, 2009 (SinoCast Daily Business Beat via COMTEX) --
NSANY | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. (TYO: 7201) plans to launch its lithium ion battery-driven vehicles in the Chinese market in 2011, according to Yasuaki Hashimoto, president of Nissan (China) Investment Co., Ltd.

Consumers in Wuhan City, central China, are predicted to enjoy the electric automobiles first, in part of Nissan Motor's efforts to feel around the Chinese taste. But the number of such cars to be launched has not been fixed.

After strict testing, the company decided to take manganese as the electrode material of these electric cars' lithium ion batteries, as manganese-lithium batteries perform better than iron-lithium batteries in terms of stability and security.

With a maximum speed of 140 kilometers per hour, Nissan electric cars are applicable to expressways, said Mr. Hashimoto, adding that his company would likely produce electric cars in China, even without regard to the country's abundant rare earth.

In addition, Nissan electric cars will serve Japanese and the US consumers in 2010, and enter other markets from 2012.
