Seattle preparing for electric vehicles 05:53 PM PDT on Monday, June 8, 2009 By GARY CHITTIM / KING5 News SEATTLE - By the time Nissan Corporation launches its new all electric vehicle in 2010, Seattle will already have a system in place to help owners charge up. Nissan Director of Product Planning Mark Perry is in Seattle to hear more about the City's plan to power up a network of electric vehicle recharging stations. Perry said Nissan selected Seattle to be one of its launch sites for the new vehicles because residents here support energy efficient eco-friendly products. He says the new Nissan will be powerful enough for freeway travel and will get 100 miles on a single charge. But he says it takes a city like Seattle to get things going. "The vehicle doesn't work without a supporting charging infrastructure," explained Perry. The Mayor's office is promising to get that infrastructure in place. Representatives say they are considering a blend of public-private recharging sites spread throughout the City. The city is also applying for federal stimulus money to pay for the project which would place Seattle in a firm position as a national leader in alternative energy vehicles. king5.com
