Nissan Electric Vehicle News For Seattle, Tacoma, And Bellevue Washington
2018 nissan leaf preowned in seattle tacoma kirkland renton kent newcastle washingtonNever suffer from range anxiety ever again with the 2018 Nissan Leaf SV! This used all-electric vehicle boasts a 151-mile driving range so you can get where you need to go without having to find a charging station or be held back with long periods of downtime.
 
Redesigned for 2018, the Leaf now travels farther than any of its predecessors, which previously offered 107 miles of range. This is due to the larger, higher-capacity 40-kilowatt-hour battery pack anchoring the EV, which powers the high-response 110-kW electric motor to create 147 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. When it’s time to replenish the Leaf’s range, the SV trim is equipped with a Quick Charge Port, which will have you back up to 80 percent capacity in just 40 minutes. You also have the option of charging overnight using a 220V line, which takes about 7.5 hours.
 
The SV also includes other conveniences that make life on the road effortless. Anchoring the dash is a 7.0-inch capacitive touchscreen display, boasting NissanConnect with Navigation featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as NissanConnect Services powered by SiriusXM. For the most relaxing ride, Intelligent Cruise Control also helps you safety maintain your speed. Want to check in on your Leaf remotely? Use the smartphone app where you can monitor and schedule charging, locate the nearest charging station or even pre-cool or heat the EV before getting in.

2019 nissan leaf for sale in kirkland seattle tacoma washingtonLast week, we announced exciting pricing news about the upcoming release of the 2019 Nissan Leaf all-electric plug-in vehicle and since then some customers have inquired about the availability of a Leaf E-Plus. Right now, details remain thin about this longer-range EV, but there have been some recent reports that have divulged a few details, which we are happy to share with you. 
 
According to The Torque Report, the 2019 Leaf E-Plus will not only offer a longer range, but generate more power as well. Right now, the regular Leaf delivers a range of 150 miles, but the E-Plus variant will jump to 225 miles. It will also build upon the current EV’s 147 horsepower electric motor to output 200 horsepower with the Leaf E-Plus. An upgraded 60 kWh battery is also expected, which is an improvement from the Leaf’s 40 kWh battery, which will enable the vehicle to better manage its energy stores and traveller longer distances.
 
Again, details about the 2019 Leaf E-Plus remain minimal for now. As more information is released, we’ll be sure to share it on our blog. In the meantime, we are eagerly awaiting stock of 150-mile range Leaf models and we know that you are too. To pre-book your test drive, contact our team at Kirkland Nissan today or visit our lot to see what 2018 trims are in store.
If your search for an all-electric vehicle delivering exceptional range and a huge suite of driver assist features has led you to the 2018 Nissan Leaf SV, you’ve come to the right place. Re-designed this year, the world’s best-selling plug-in delivers more power, mileage and tech than ever before.
 
 
The 2018 Leaf is anchored by a 110-kW AC synchronous electric motor with front-wheel drive, which produces 147 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. The 40-kWh lithium-ion battery pack, which is tucked in nicely under the cabin floor, has been enhanced and now boasts a 150-mile range, allowing the Leaf to travel longer distances than previously. When it’s time to top up the battery, the standard 6.6-kW onboard charger will need about 40 minutes to re-charge to 80 percent (when using a 50-kW CHAdeMO DC fast charger). Long periods of downtime are now a thing of the past!
 
The SV trim is also chock full of high-tech equipment for even more comfort, convenience and protection on Seattle’s roads. This includes Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, which automatically senses vehicles in front of you and adjusts cruising speeds with the right amount of acceleration or deceleration. Nissan’s ProPILOT is also standard and uses autonomous driving technologies, which help to keep the Leaf centered and on-course.

Shopping for a preowned all-electric vehicle, but feel overwhelmed with your choices and technical specs? Allow us to simplify the field by introducing the 2017 Nissan Leaf S to you. Boasting a plug-in powertrain and a longer battery range, this EV is a well-suited choice for Seattle urbanites.
 
Let’s start with what’s under the hood. The 2017 Leaf S is powered by an 80-kW AC synchronous motor that generates 107 horsepower and 187 lb-ft of torque. Rather than relying on gasoline, the Leaf is energized by a 30-kWh lithium-ion battery that can travel 107 miles on a single charge. When it’s time for a refresh, the onboard 3.6 kW charger can juice up a depleted battery in about seven hours when using 220V; however, an optional 6.6 kW charger is available for greater efficiency.
 
 
On the exterior, the S trim is appointed with 16-inch steel wheels and a rearview camera, which is handy while backing out of tight city spots. Inside, the front seats are heated for your comfort and the 60/40-split folding rear row makes way for a total of 30 cu.ft. of storage space. There’s also a 5-inch central display with Bluetooth connectivity and a USB port for streaming audio and charging your smartphone. It’s very well-equipped for the price!
