BANGKOK -- Nissan Motor, the first carmaker to sell fully electric vehicles in Thailand, has chosen local manufacturer Delta Electronics (Thailand) as its sole supplier of home chargers in the country.

The move aims at a win-win collaboration, as fast chargers will make owning a Nissan Leaf electric car more practical for Thais, while boosting Bangkok-listed Delta's sales at a time when the Thai government is promoting the use of electrics.
