Easy Ride: mobility service using robo-vehicles
Nissan and its partner DeNA, a Japanese internet company, are jointly developing Easy Ride, a mobility service that uses autonomous driving technology. It’s envisioned as a service for anyone who wants to travel freely to their destination of choice in a robo-vehicle. Nissan and DeNA aim to provide the service as a new infrastructure option that supplements existing transportation.
The goal is to allow customers to use a dedicated mobile app to complete the whole process from setting destinations and summoning vehicles to paying the fare. A public field test of the service will take place in Yokohama, Japan, from March 5-18, 2018.
e-share mobi: a car-sharing service that lets users experience Nissan’s advanced technologies
The innovative e-share mobi car-sharing service gives users the opportunity to experience Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies, including autonomous driving technologies and the excitement of electric drive. The service begins Jan. 15 and will initially feature the new, 100% electric Nissan LEAF and the Nissan Note e-POWER. It will initially be offered at about 30 stations in Japan and will be expanded throughout the nation.
Through e-share mobi, Nissan aims to provide as many customers as possible with opportunities to experience the peace of mind, ease of use and comfort delivered by Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies.
