Nissan LEAF

Electric cars are invading the lanes, leaving a competitive fuel consumption against any other regular gasoline-powered car. New from Nissan is the LEAF concept, previously unveiled by its maker and will arrive in showrooms next year. With its 24-kWh lithium ion battery pack, it is believed to deliver 107hp and 206 lb-ft of torque. LEAF’s engine is a pure electric platform-based which was developed around the Tiida/Versa chassis. The car’s stance could never be set aside considering that it is designed with modern theme. It has LED headlights up front and it comes with an iPhone application that allows the owner to monitor the car’s battery level even when they are away… And this is how we will heal the world.
