Chris Ramsey’s route, which already has 56 days and 16,000 kilometers of experience traveling in Eurasia in the electric Nissan Leaf, will be all-around North and South America and will have to end in Antarctica.

The Nissan Ariya crossover that Ramsey will ride has all-wheel drive, but will receive a modified suspension, wheels, tires and lighting to overcome rough terrain, and in parallel, the electric car will move on the same route and standard. version of the same gateway. the role of the support machine in both Americas.

When will the trip take place

The expedition is scheduled to launch from north to south in March 2023, and if successful, it will be the world’s first pole-crossing by any land vehicle, not just an electric car.

The machine must cope with different climatic and landscape conditions, where temperatures fluctuate from zero on the Celsius scale to 30 degrees in either direction and ice mounds are replaced by sand dunes or humid tropical forests. If the race is successful, it will be a good test for the Nissan Ariya crossover and will be worthy of advertising.

Before the news about electric cars, Tesla’s president Elon Musk recently announced a new date for the introduction of full autopilot. It will be remembered that Tesla has long tested and implemented a full-scale driver assistance system. Today he can drive almost independently, arrange and park the car on call.

It is also worth noting that Tesla requires the driver to pay maximum attention to the work of the autopilot and the willingness to take control of the vehicle at any time. Drivers often ignore this requirement, leading to accidents ranging from minor collisions to large-scale car crashes with human casualties.
