Japanese companies come up with solutions for traffic and water supply issues

Yokohama, Jan 7 (ANI): A smart scheme for a smart society! Nissan Motor Corporation and the city of Yokohama recently launched “Choimobi Yokohama” –Japan’s first one-way sharing service. It’s a new concept for mobility within urban areas. People can rent units of “NISSAN New Mobility Concept”, an ultra convenient electric vehicle. They can drop off the vehicle at a different location from where they were hired, enabling one-way travel. The scheme aims at using ultra-compact vehicles to improve lifestyles of people in the urban areas. The small size of the electric vehicles holds out the prospect of easing traffic congestions, and improving access to tourist areas and communities. The ultra-compact electric vehicle produces no emission, making it ideal for use in crowded city streets. Jan 7, 2014
