Nissan unveils newest all-electric vehicle

Nissan on Monday unveiled its second all-electric vehicle, the Japanese automaker's latest push into the eco-friendly car sector despite disappointing sales.
The company said its e-NV200, a zero-emission commercial van, can drive 190 kilometres on a full charge, and doubles as an onboard power source to supply emergency lighting or power to an outside unit.
Nissan was the first in the world to sell a mass-production electric passenger vehicle, the LEAF, in 2010.
The newest vehicle, which comes with either five or seven seats, is to go on sale in some European countries before its October Japan launch with prices starting at 3.88 million yen ($37,900), Nissan said.
Retail prices could be lower after accounting for government subsidies on green-vehicle sales, it added, according to AFP.
