Chris and Julie Ramsey will attempt to become the first people to drive from the North Pole to the South Pole in 2023 using an electric Nissan Ariya.
The married Scots will attempt to become the first people to drive from the magnetic North Pole to the South Pole, and they are doing it in an electric car. Gary Gastelu is Fox News Digital's automotive editor.
The couple completed the 10,000-mile Mongol Rally through Asia driving a Nissan Leaf in 2017 and have teamed up with the automaker for their new 17,000-mile journey.
"There was a lot of kind of things floating around at that time about cold weather impacts on batteries and I know, from being an EV driver for nearly 10 years, that there is a little bit of an impact, but it’s not as bad as what was being made out," Ramsey told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview from his home in Aberdeen, the center of Europe’s petroleum industry.
