Let’s hope the budget for rebates is larger than the photo budget.
Nissan and Wallbox (NYSE:WBX) in early July will offer EV owners nationwide a way to purchase Wallbox’s Pulsar Plus level 2 home charger and schedule installation through the NissanUSA.com website. Nissan will provide an unspecified rebate on the charger and installation to customers who purchase through the program.
The Pulsar Plus charger, the company’s best-seller, is said to be one of the smallest smart universal EV chargers in North America. It can be installed in homes, apartment buildings and other multi-unit dwellings.
“As we continue our efforts to make EVs more accessible, this new program with Wallbox allows us to offer a simple solution for EV owners looking to install a home charger,” said Aditya Jairaj, Director, EV marketing and sales strategy, Nissan U.S. “This initiative will make it easier and more convenient for more consumers to switch to EVs.”
Nissan’s current EV offerings include the LEAF, on sale now, and the new Ariya electric crossover, which will go on sale this fall. (AutoInformed: Revised 2023 Nissan Leaf Debuts at NYIAS) Nissan is highlighting EVs and advanced technology with a $17.6 billion investment and 23 electrified models globally, including 15 new EVs. It is a strategy for survival in the globally warmed marketplace. By 2030, in the U.S., 40% of Nissan vehicle sales will be fully electric, with more to be electrified.
