and others to 80% within 30 minutes thanks to a three-phase charging system. 

Nissan is donating 40 units to the Netherlands that will put most Dutch citizens within 30km of a Quick Charger. The first one will be at an office park in Amersfoort close to a major motorway junction. 

The first charger in France is at a Cora supermarket in Haguenau, France. It will be the first of six chargers in the Alsace region. France will also get 40 Quick Chargers.

"The installation of these first ChadeMo compliant Quick Chargers is an important moment for zero emission mobility in Europe. With the 400 chargers we have donated and the thousands our partners will install over the coming years, electric vehicle ownership will be opened up to a larger number of people in Europe," said Oliver Paturet, the manager of Nissan's Zero Emission Strategy. 

Nissan plans to debut an inter-country, European network of chargers later this year.
