Just Last week marks the 2nd full month of Zapp-Cab being an officially registered LLC. Business has grown steadily! However, more fleet vehicles are still needed to keep up with the community's very heavy demand. Help Zapp-Cab buy or lease a newer more numerous fleet of Nissan Leaf's. Also, be a part of the conversation and investment strategy to import the 8 passenger all-electric Nissan e-NV200 to the U.S. which still requires expensive DOT confirmed crash testing to be street legal.

On December 31st, 2015 the 35% North Carolina tax credit for purchasing and installing solar will foreseeably discontinue. With the paralleled 30% federal tax credit still to be in extant, the 65% State/Federal total rebate means NOW IS THE TIME TO INSTALL SOLAR ARRAYS IF YOU ARE IN NC!!! We must act before the incentives are gone! Any company, business or group of people who partner with Zapp-Cab to install a solar array can benefit by making money, saving on a reduced monthly electric bill and by leasing space for Zapp-Cab to park. Make a statement and be part of our community's long term health and future by helping these local projects come to fruition while you still can. Contact [email protected] for more information.

Historically, Japan has had it's share of difficulties, geographic isolation, lack of resources, natural disasters, power plant meltdowns, but these events and circumstances have bred companies like Nissan to make exceptionally good products. Alongside Tesla, Nissan is driving automotive innovation. The e-NV200 is the largest all electric van in the world right now. The Zapp-Cab crew can't wait for the U.S. EV plant in Smyrna TN to jump on board with development. Here is their phone number: (615) 459-1400 -- Everyone call them to let them know the demand for EV's is here, right now!!!

Nissan is now launching an electric version of the NV200, called e-NV200, combining the electric drivetrain of the Leaf to its commercial vehicle.

While Toyota Prius' are all manufactured in Japan and shipped to the United States, every Nissan Leaf in the U.S. comes from directly from Smyrna Tennessee, that's really local! Especially for east coast, Appalachian residents!

The Nissan Leaf will be produced in Tennessee, in what's been described as America's largest auto plant under one roof. Take a tour with me on the electric tram.
