With only one month until the Nissan Ariya undertakes the world's first all-electric driving adventure from the magnetic North Pole to the South Pole, the team in charge reveals why this car is the perfect match.Nissan, in partnership with British adventurer, Chris Ramsey and the daring Pole to Pole expedition team will travel over 27,000 kilometres across several regions and continents with predicted temperatures ranging from -30⁰C to 30⁰C in a modified Nissan Ariya e-4ORCE. Commencing March 2023, the expedition will see Chris and his wife, Julie Ramsey become the first people to drive from pole to pole in a vehicle of any type, as they make their way from the Arctic, through North, Central and South America, before crossing to Antarctica.The route will negotiate some of the world's most extreme, brutal, and yet beautiful scenery. From snow-covered glacial landscapes to treacherous mountain climbs and vast desert dunes; this Pole to Pole expedition, driven in the Nissan Ariya will take followers through breath-taking and uncharted territory.
Nissan’s modified Ariya e-4ORCE prepares to embark on the world-first electric expedition from the magnetic North Pole to the South Pole.Arctic Trucks, a specialist in polar expedition vehicles, has collaborated with Nissan design and engineering teams to prepare the expedition Ariya for conditions that will include ice fields, deep snow, mountain climbs and desert dunes.Modified with a custom rugged exterior fit, the expedition Ariya is complete with raised suspension and flared wheel arches to accommodate large tires and additional body kit. In preparation for protection against some of the world's most extreme conditions, the Ariya will be embarking on its toughest test to date and breaking new ground.Staying true to the Ariya’s already formidable form, modifications to the car have been intentionally minimal. The expedition car has kept its original battery-electric powertrain and features the dual-motor setup with Nissan’s innovative and unique all-wheel drive system, e- 4ORCE developed exclusively for electric and electrified powertrains.The most noticeable changes are the increased suspension and massive 39-inch off-road tyres, fitted to ensure the expedition Ariya can tackle the most grueling conditions and terrains. Alongside a stunning exterior design and a welcoming lounge-like interior, the vehicle has been fitted with a built-in espresso machine to keep British adventurer, Chris and his wife Julie in the necessary comfort on their journey to reach the South Pole.
Full power on snow and ice: With its advanced e-4ORCE all-wheel drive system, Nissan has started an electrifying test drive through the Pyrenees and three countries. The drive concept specially developed for the electrified Nissan models, which uses electric motors on each axle, guarantees safe and reassuring driving behavior in every situation.Whether at the dawn of spring in the Alps, in the hot summer through southern Europe, on windy and leaf-covered roads in English autumn or through the slippery and freezing winter landscape of Bavaria: Nissan e-4ORCE technology masters all seasons with flying colors.Even the toughest conditions are no problem for the all-wheel drive offered for the electrified X-Trail and the all-electric Ariya: Nissan has conquered the snowy mountains in the Pyrenees and completed laps on the world's highest permanent racetrack in Andorra at 2,400 meters - impressive proof of the excellent handling and maximum control that the e-4ORCE offers even under extreme winter conditions.In order to guarantee safety and driving pleasure in everyday life, the Nissan engineers have concentrated on three core elements during development: the management of the electric motors, the all-wheel drives and chassis control technologies. The use of two electric motors eliminates the cardan shaft that is necessary with conventional mechanical all-wheel drive systems. A differential is also superfluous. This results in new creative freedom and more space in the interior.
