If you are a data crunching, number-loving, tech enthusiast, a 2014 Nissan Leaf SV might just be the preowned vehicle for you. This zero-emissions plug-in performer is loaded with some really cool innovations, which make driving and owning a Leaf an electrifying experience.
 
The 2014 Leaf SV runs on a 24-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack, which powers an 80-kilowatt (107-horsepower) electric motor. This motor is responsible for supplying power to the front wheels of the vehicle, while also serving as a generator for the regenerative braking system, which turns wasted brake heat into reusable battery power. 
 
Recharging is handled by a standard onboard 6.6-kilowatt charger, which can restore a fully depleted pack in about four hours. If you have access to a plug-in station at the office, you can travel 84 miles on a single charge, which is great for Seattle commuters.
 
But, where the Leaf truly shines is its tech - specifically its app integration. All 2014 Leaf SVs can be controlled via a smartphone app, giving drivers access to real-time information about their car. This information is also displayed on the EV's in-dash monitor and shows the charging status, battery energy indicators, and distance/range estimators. Owners can also direct the car to charge when energy rates are the cheapest and pre-heat or pre-cool the vehicle while it's still plugged in.
