Abu Dhabi, March 15, 2022 – Irfan Tansel, CEO, Al Masaood Automobiles, said: “EXPO 2020 Dubai has proven to be a platform for unique minds from all over the world to come together and engage in pro-active discussions on how to re-imagine the world. Since October 2021, Nissan, through its ‘Let’s Move’ campaign, has demonstrated the fast strides it is taking in the direction of a net-zero future and green mobility. By encouraging forward thinking, human-centric technologies, Nissan is in line with the EXPO 2020 theme of ‘Connecting Minds and Creating the Future’ and is clearly focused on its objective to drive innovations that enrich people’s lives.
Similar to our principal Nissan, we At Al Masaood Automobiles, have consistently implemented various measures to reflect our support to the UAE’s sustainability goals and present Al Masaood as a responsible economic citizen. Al Masaood strives to be a leader in promoting a shift to a greener, safer, and more sustainable future.
As the authorized distributor of Nissan in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and the Western Region, we join forces with Nissan to promote initiatives that create such positive impacts. With the roll out of the second phase of Nissan’s campaign at the EXPO 2020, we are excited to mirror the green future Nissan is bringing to life through its products and a host of Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies in our offerings for the Abu Dhabi market.
Like Nissan, we too believe that it is imperative to utilize the various innovations that have been developed over the past decade in the industry and build awareness regarding the looming environmental issues to expedite our journey towards eco-friendly mobility and a clean energy future.”
