Prince of Wheels

Gareth Herincx January 20, 2015 Auto Blog

Prince Charles has taken a 100% electric LEAF for a spin during a visit to the Nissan plant in Sunderland.

HRH has a relationship with the plant that dates back almost 30 years.

During a trip to Japan in 1986, the Prince of Wales took part in a traditional Japanese Daruma ceremony to mark the start of production at the newly constructed Sunderland plant.

On his visit today, the Prince also learned about the Nissan Skills Foundation – a job-creation programme.
