Nissan has announced an extension to a long-term partnership with EV charger mapping service Zapmap.
The arrangement means that business, private, and Motability buyers of Nissan’s Leaf and Ariya EVs (plus the Townstar electric van) get a free three-year Zapmap Premium subscription, including in-car support via Apple Carplay or Android Auto.
The offer applies to models registered up to and including 31 December this year.
Nissan Motor GB EV product manager James Bird said: “Nissan is thrilled to continue its partnership with Zapmap, and, as a result, help motorists experience an integrated electrified drive.
“Nissan have always been pioneers of the electric vehicle market and Zapmap leads the way for charge mapping.
”This extension of our partnership is a natural progression as both companies continue to pave the way for intuitive electric travel.”
Zapmap commercial director Alex Earl said: “I’m very happy to confirm Zapmap’s continuing partnership with Nissan. With drivers increasingly making the switch to electric, our focus is on making charging simple, and that’s exactly what this partnership helps to achieve.
“It can sometimes be hard to find suitable chargers while driving. By enabling access to Zapmap within the in-car dashboard, our Premium offering makes navigation that much easier for EV drivers.
“We work extremely hard to understand the views of EV drivers, and that’s how we came to develop Zapmap Premium. So it’s fantastic to see the partnership continue into 2024 and expand to include the Townstar electric van.
“Zapmap displays well over 50,000 public charge points in the UK, and many thousands more across mainland Europe. We look forward to making EV navigation easy for increasing numbers of Nissan’s electric vehicle customers, enabling Leaf, Ariya, and Townstar drivers to enjoy a seamless on-the-road charging experience, wherever they go.”
