In a challenge to conventional tyre setups, Volvo Cars will equip its fully electric cars with Recharge tyres for use all year round as standard in Northern and Central Europe. With a single set of tyres capable of safely handling a wider range of weather and road conditions than summer or winter tyres, Volvo Cars aims to simplify customers’ lives by avoiding the bi-annual hassle of tyre changes, while also reducing CO2 emissions. The Recharge tyres are the first tyres for year-round use to achieve A-class energy efficiency. This innovation is in line with the company’s aspiration to lead the industry in offering more sustainable products. Driving a pure electric Volvo XC40 on Recharge tyres can reduce energy consumption by up to 8 per cent and extend the average driving range, compared with driving on winter tyres.

Award-winning architect Kengo Kuma designed the booth for Infiniti at Auto Shanghai 2019.

The Nissan IMs, unveiled at the 2019 North American International Auto Show, is a completely new type of car - an "elevated sports sedan" that takes advantage of the packaging, platform and powertrain technology developed through Nissan Intelligent Mobility.While closer to a sedan than a crossover, the Nissan IMs concept's revolutionary proportions create a vehicle segment all of its own. It is defined by its pure electric-vehicle identity, with the battery located under the body, elevating cabin height. Its stretched interior space, a result of the vehicle's extended wheelbase, features unique "2+1+2" seating architecture with pivoting front seats and a rear seat that either offers three-across seating, or, once the slim rear outboard seats are folded, an indulgent "Premier Seat" in the rear center, worthy of world-class executive travel.
The Go Anywhere ethos of Nissan's pickups and SUVs is being put to the test this week as the Nissan Patrol, Navara, TITAN and Terra take on the rugged terrain of the Sahara Desert.Setting out from Er-Rachidia in eastern Morocco, members of the media are experiencing the authentic capabilities of Nissan's trucks and frame-based SUVs amid the tough conditions of the Atlas Mountains, which stretch for more than 2,500 kilometers across the north of Africa.In 2006 and 2007, a highway that runs through Er-Rachidia – a city of about 90,000 people that sits in a sparsely populated area with few other towns nearby – formed part of the Paris-Dakar Rally. Labeled the "gateway to the desert," this 400-kilometer section of the race was noted for having the most terrain changes of the race and was notorious for its grueling conditions.The Patrol, Navara, TITAN and Terra are part of Nissan's increasingly popular lineup of light commercial vehicles, which is expected to achieve almost 1 million sales globally this year.
