FobzyNissan Plans Leaf with Complete Charging Infrastructure
December 15th 2009 08:46
The Leaf has no internal combustion engine, which makes it a zero-emissions car. (The electricity that charges it, however, is not necessarily emissions-free.) Nissan expects the Leaf to be the first affordable, all-electric car.

You can't buy this, or any production all-electric car, in the US today. Nissan will begin taking reservations for the Leaf in the spring of 2010.
Initially it's a lot like driving a Toyota Prius hybrid... until the straightaway, where Dean persuades me to floor it.
The acceleration is quick -- and almost completely silent. The Leaf has 107 horsepower and tops out at 90 miles an hour
Let's just wait and see but it sure sounds good to the environmentalists.
