“As a long-term business partner of Nissan, I trust in the company’s standard of quality in building Nissan vehicles. I am also proud to be part of an action that will help minimize the environmental issues across Thailand in a sustainable way, through the adoption of zero-emission electric vehicles like the Nissan LEAF,” said Sakulthorn Juangroongruangkit, the executive vice president of Thai Summit Autoparts Industry Co., Ltd, explaining how trust in the Nissan brand was also a key factor in the decision to buy a Nissan LEAF.
At the handover ceremony, held at the Nissan Education and Training Center on Bangna-Trad Road, KM22, Sakulthorn expressed his excitement about getting behind the wheel of a Nissan LEAF. “I look forward to the pleasure of driving the all-new Nissan LEAF with its state-of-the-art technology, acceleration rate and the silent ride.”
Ratthakarn Jutasen, vice president of sales for Nissan in Thailand, said at the ceremony that the first vehicle delivery to a valued corporate customer showed that both consumers and major organizations like Thai Summit Autoparts Industry see the benefits of electric mobility.
“Bringing the all-new LEAF to Thailand further underscores Nissan’s vision for the future of mobility, which will help move people to a better world, a world that is more electric, more connected and more autonomous. And we firmly believe that the LEAF will play a key role in zero-emission mobility solutions that help drive Thailand towards a sustainable future.”
