Nissan sells a record 400 LEAF to Avis
04 Apr 2014

    To date, the largest private order of Nissan LEAF globally
    Supported with funding from the Danish Energy Agency

Avis Car Rental has placed the world’s largest private order for the Nissan
LEAF by ordering 400 of the 100% electric cars for its latest joint venture.
Thanks to funding from the Danish Energy Agency, the EVs will be offered at
an all-inclusive price of only 3,495 DKK (€468) per month which is expected
to be a major step forward for the electric car revolution in Denmark.

The huge order was commemorated today by the attendance of the Minister of
Climate, Energy and Buildings, Rasmus Helveg Petersen, at the handover of
the first of the 400 Nissan LEAF, ready to go on the Danish roads. His
attendance marked the kick off of the first of four large projects supported
by the Danish Energy Agency in order to get more EVs on the roads

Avis and Nissan is setting new standards for the industry

With the green vehicle market still in its infancy in Denmark, this new
order from Avis Car Rental will increase the Denmark’s sales figures by 60
percent compared to 2013. Both Avis Car Rental and Nissan expect this
initiative will create more demand and provide a significant breakthrough
for the EV industry in Denmark.

“The fleet expansion is a crucial step towards a greener future within the
car rental industry and Denmark in general,” says Kasper Gjedsted, Managing
Director at Avis Car Rental in Denmark. “The support from the Danish Energy
Agency now makes it possible for us to rent out electric cars at a lower
price than conventional cars. I am convinced that this will encourage many
more people to make the switch to electric cars – especially public
institutions and companies for whom the electric car is an obvious pool car
solution,” he says

Electric Vehicle Director for Nissan Europe, Jean-Pierre Diernaz says: “This
is a significant move in to getting many more electric cars on Danish roads.
We know that the best way to convince more people to buy electric cars is to
incentivise businesses to test drive the Nissan LEAF and find out how
comfortable and easy it is to drive. The Danish Energy Agency, with its pool
partnerships, has been a great help to us in taking this step, and we are
proud to be the first project participants of this scheme, supplying Avis
Car Rental with these 400 electric cars on the roads within this year.”

The leading electric car at the lowest price on the market

Nissan LEAF is the best selling EV in the world with more than 105,000 cars
sold. In Norway, LEAF was the overall third best selling car for 2013, with
more than 3,750 cars sold and was the leading passenger car for January and
February.

The new Nissan LEAF fleet at ... Avis Car Rental can be mini-leased within
an optional period of 1-36 months for only 3,495 DKK per month including
VAT, insurance and with no deposit required. An Avis mini-lease comes with
no commitment, so businesses can test a Nissan LEAF with no strings
attached, saving time and money. The price also includes a 2,500 km
allowance, insurance and charging cables. Furthermore, it is possible to
install charging facilities at the company address.

Built-in, intelligent plug and play software makes Avis EVs the obvious
choice as a pool car system for any company. The software ensures minimal
administration, easy booking for employees and provides a detailed overview
of fuel economy as well as supplying driving and environmental statistics.

“Green transport is the future; however, we still sense some hesitation
towards electric vehicles from some of our customers. Therefore with Nissan
LEAF, we have selected the leading electric vehicle on the market and at the
same time made the product as cost effective, easy, convenient and
intelligent as possible to hopefully encourage more Danes to lease an
electric vehicle,” concludes Kasper Gjedsted.
