Nissan Plans Leaf with Complete Charging Infrastructure

December 15th 2009 08:46
Nissan Leaf




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.

"affordable, all electric car" sounds quite good already Fobzy, my friend, but I'm willing to wait on what the environmentalists have to say.
