Landmark partnership unites the world’s best-selling Electric Vehicle, the Nissan LEAF, with global power supply provider to support Thailand’s electrification roadmap

Nissan announces the official appointment of DET as the primary provider of electric vehicle charging systems. 

The deal supports Thailand’s electrification goal of 1.2 million units on the road by 2036 and will provide Nissan LEAF owners in Thailand international-standard charging facilities with Delta’s quality standard of service, certified by Nissan. 

“Nissan Motor Thailand is committed to helping drive an electric vehicle ecosystem in Thailand for the benefit of our customers, and Thai people, by supporting a greener future through electric mobility. To ensure this, we are honored to welcome Delta, one of the world’s leading power supply producers and thermal management solutions providers, on board to join us and drive Thailand toward an all-electric vehicle future,” said Ramesh Narasimhan, president of Nissan Motor Thailand. 

In addition, the exclusive partnership comes as the Nissan LEAF, the best-selling EV globally with more than 400,000 vehicles sold worldwide, started shipping to Thai customers this month.

“We leverage our core competencies in power conversion and management to develop and install world-class charging solutions for the global EV community, and now in Thailand. Owners of the all-new Nissan LEAF in Thailand can now confidently take to the roads supported by our safe and efficient charging solutions and localized service,” said Dick Hsieh, president of DET.

The all-new Nissan LEAF, which launched at the Thailand International Motor Expo 2018 for delivery in May 2019, is the best-selling electric vehicle in the world with 25% global market share and the icon of Nissan Intelligent Mobility, the company’s vision to transform the way people drive and live. The new e-powertrain gives the new Nissan LEAF 110 kW of power output and 320 nm of torque, improving acceleration and driver enjoyment.
