Tan Chong today unveiled to a a select group of bankers and journalists its Nissan Navara 2.5, a premium twin-cab 4x4 light truck with automatic transmission.
The Navara is almost a household name in Australia but this is its premiere in Malaysia. For Nissan franchise holder, Tan Chong, the lure to enter the sector for automatic transmission twin-cab 4x4’s is the 23 per cent growth year-to-date 2007 to 2008.
BMW Group will be the world’s first manufacturer of premium automobiles to deploy a fleet of some 500 all-electric vehicles for private use in daily traffic. The MINI E will be powered by a 150 kW (204 hp) electric motor fed by a high-performance rechargeable lithium-ion battery, transferring its power to the front wheels via a single-stage helical gearbox nearly without a sound and entirely free of emissions.
The MINI E will initially be made available to select private and corporate customers as part of a pilot project in the US states of California, New York and New Jersey. The possibility of offering the MINI E in Europe as well is currently being considered. The MINI E will give its world premiere at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 19 and 20, 2008.
This whole Porsche vs Nissan argument over their respective pride and joy's lap times around the Nurburgring Nordschleife is getting really childish. Stop it boys. It makes these otherwise respectable men look like 12-year old kids.
