If you are looking to make the switch to an
electric vehicle, you really can't do better than the leader of the EV
pack, the Nissan Leaf.
The
2016 Nissan Leaf now boasts a class-leading 107 miles maximum on a
full-charge. Despite being one of the first true electric vehicles to
market, the Leaf continues to lead the way in innovation and
performance, with a new 30 KWH battery boosting range to previously
unheard of levels.
The Nissan Leaf is truly an electric vehicle- there is no gas tank- so you'll never have to stop at the pump again. Leaf owners may also enjoy other financial benefits as well- as much as $7,500 in potential federal tax credits**.
From a driving perspective, the Leaf is unlike anything you've ever driven. Due to its unique drivetrain, there is instant torque- the power is there as soon as you you hit the (not gas) pedal. There is no lag, no revving-up of shifting gears- it just goes!
Strictly for fun, below is a video of a Nissan powering a concert via specialized power converters (but please don't try this with your Leaf- it is not an approved use of the vehicle, and would void your warranty. Still cool though!)
