Nissan has become the Official Vehicle Partner to Tennis Ireland as well as the title sponsor of the Nissan TI Junior Kids Programme and Nissan TI Junior Kids Tour which is underway this month, writes Trish Whelan. Nissan’s support will enable Tennis Ireland to expand its programmes to develop the sport at all levels across Ireland.
The Nissan TI Junior Kids Programme and associated regional and national tours are designed to develop and nurture more young players and to ensure they are coached to a high standard.
Vehicles that Nissan is supplying to Tennis Ireland include the Qashqai e-Power and X-Trail e-Power which deliver all the benefits of EV driving without ever having to plug in the car to recharge it. Both models drive in electric mode 100pc of the time and the petrol engine is solely used to charge a battery that powers an electric motor to drive the wheels. Tennis Ireland is also being supplied with the all-electric Nissan Ariya crossover.
