🚗🔋 Nissan is leading a **£10 million Government-backed** UK project to make EVs smarter, cheaper to run and truly grid-ready.
'Project SUITE' (Smart Use of Integrated Technology for EVs) will bring together on-board solar, intelligent charging, AI controls, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capability- aiming to cut charging costs and help support the electricity grid.
Working with 10 partners across business and academia, Nissan and engineers at Nissan Technical Centre Europe in Cranfield will integrate these breakthroughs into Nissan’s British-built LEAF for real-world testing.
Backed by the £4 billion DRIVE35 programme, this is UK innovation turning into next-gen EV technology-built for customers. 🇬🇧⚡
