Nissan Easy Ride will Offer an Easy Way to Get Around
Michael Hemsworth — February 24, 2018 — Autos
The Nissan Easy Ride service has been created by the car brand in partnership with DeNa to provide consumers in the Minato Mirai district of Yokohama with a simple way to get around. The service will be geofenced along a 4.5 kilometer route that is situated between the global headquarters for Nissan and the Yokohama World Porters shopping center. The service will employ Nissan Leaf electric vehicles that are autonomously driven yet will have a driver behind the wheel for the time being to ensure everything runs smoothly.
The Nissan Easy Ride service will also enable riders to access a tablet screen when they're riding to explore places of interest in the area and even download exclusive discounts to their smartphone.
