Interesting Nissan Facts For Seattle, Tacoma, And Bellevue Washington
2018 nissan leaf s for sale kirkland washingtonHave you heard the news? Nissan has unveiled a new Leaf! This vehicle, called the Leaf NISMO RC, is an electric race car. It’s equipped with “advanced battery technology and drivetrain components from” its namesake automobile. However, the automakers modified its powertrain so that it would work with dual motors. Unfortunately, that feature isn’t available on any model available to consumers.

The Leaf NISMO RC includes two electric motors that are able to produce 240 kilowatts combined (120 kW each) and 640 Nm of instant torque to the wheels. According to Nissan, that’s more than double the version of this vehicle that was introduced in 2011 and based on the first generation consumer model.

While you can’t get the electric race car version for yourself, you can own a 2018 Nissan Leaf S! This one relies on a portable 120V/240V cable for charging, and its lithium ion battery provides 6.6 kW in the car. Plug in for just a half hour and you can expect to travel as many as 90 miles in this sedan.

A recent review of the 2018 Nissan Leaf is overwhelmingly positive. The writer took his vehicle on a cider doughnut tour, stopping in a variety of places across the northeast to find the best autumnal treats. While doing so, he made notes on the vehicle’s efficiency and performance.

When they started out on their quest for doughnuts, the reviewer noted that the Leaf showed 159 miles of range and 99 percent battery efficiency. They planned to cover just 121 miles, and the auto is rated for 151. It was only 45 degrees out that day, though, which the article noted could hurt the range of the car. It ended up rising to 61 degrees by the end of the afternoon, however.



The reviewer loved his doughnuts, and he also seemed to love the Leaf. He raved about the heated seats and steering wheel, and everyone in the car was comfortable for all 5.5 hours of their trip. They ended up covering 114 miles in total and had 24 remaining by the time they got home.
