Nissan Electric Vehicle News For Seattle, Tacoma, And Bellevue Washington
best deal on a used nissan leaf hatchback near seattle washingtonIn need of thriftier transportation to get around Seattle? Nothing beats the efficiency of a 2016 Nissan Leaf S! This plug-in all-electric vehicle runs on easily accessible household energy, eliminating the need for gasoline to power the battery-generated motor. 
 
Pop the “hood” and you’ll see what we mean – the 2016 Leaf’s plug-and-play formula is void of a regular combustion engine. Instead, this preowned platform runs on a 24 kWh laminated lithium-ion battery to power the 107-horsepower 80-kW electric motor to deliver a range of 84 miles. For regular short-distance commuting or errand running, this is more than enough juice to get you on your way. When it’s time to recharge the battery, simply plug in the cord and the standard 3.6 kW onboard charger will be back to full capacity in about eight hours. 
 
Worried that you’ll have to forego the latest tech and features by switching to an all-electric vehicle? You’ll be happy to know that the S trim comes outfitted with top convenience and comfort equipment. This includes a bright 5.0-inch color display and NissanConnect with Mobile Apps, as well as standard Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity. A rearview camera is included too, plus you’ll benefit from the Intelligent Key with Push Button Start. Cloth upholstery, 16-inch steel wheels, heated mirrors and full power accessories round up the EV’s offering.

Powered by an 80-kilowatt electric motor and a 24 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, the 2012 Leaf puts out an easy 107 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque.

used nissan leaf dealer in seattle washingtonIf you’ve test driven the Toyota Prius or the Kia Optima Hybrid, but are holding out for a fully electric vehicle, consider the 2011 Nissan Leaf SV as your plug-in powered ride.
