Champion of City Streets
The Nissan LEAF’s instant torque lets you unleash the full power of the electric drivetrain when you step on the accelerator. The electric motor produces 147 horsepower with the 40-kWh battery, and 214 horsepower with the 60-kWh battery. The smaller battery is sufficient for daily city driving, offering 149 miles of range. The larger provides up to 212 miles per charge, making it ideal for longer trips.
Engaging Eco Mode turns on the car’s regenerative braking feature, which converts braking energy into charge for the battery. The battery is strategically located beneath the cabin floor between the front and rear axles. This creates a lower center of gravity that improves stability, handling, and cornering performance.
Practical Interior
The Nissan LEAF has a hatchback design that maximizes cargo and passenger space. With the rear seats folded down, 30 cubic feet of cargo volume is opened, providing more than enough room for camping gear, luggage, or even a bike. The SV Plus trim offers keyless entry with push-button start, making it simple to get in and go. It also comes with automatic climate control, which maintains a set cabin temperature without you having to manually tweak the settings.
Intelligent Technology
The LEAF comes with an 8-inch infotainment touchscreen that can be custom designed to place apps and information where you want it. You can also create your own shortcuts for easy access to your favorite features. The system is integrated with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and has an available built-in navigation system that makes it easy to find where you need to go without relying on your phone’s connection.
Given the LEAF’s heavy city appeal, Nissan knows that safety is paramount. A suite of intelligent driver assistance features comes standard in every model, including Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, and Lane Departure Warning. An available feature is ProPILOT Assist, which simplifies stop-and-go traffic by maintaining a set distance from the vehicle ahead of you. It also keeps your car centered in your lane for a more secure drive.
The all-new Nissan LEAF is more intelligent and adaptable than ever before. It offers city drivers a versatile, comfortable, and practical interior to enhance comfort during their daily drives, while also improving the driving experience with nimble handling and instant torque.
