Each year, April 22nd marks Earth Day across North America – an important celebration where we honor our environment, look for new ways to incorporate sustainability into our daily lives and give the Earth some TLC with community clean-up initiatives. If you’ve been looking for a way to make your commute greener this year, consider a 2015 Nissan Leaf as your next eco-friendly vehicle.
Â
Under its sleek and stylish exterior rests an 80 kW AC synchronous electric motor with a 24 kWh lithium-ion battery that generates 107 horses and 187 lb-ft of torque. Charging the EV takes about eight hours with the base 3.6 kW onboard charger, but you can upgrade to a 6.6 kW version, which will reduce the battery refresh time to five hours.Â

Inside, the interior of the S trim is nicely appointed with heated seats throughout the cabin and a 4.3-inch display, which gives a clear view as you back out of parking spaces using the standard rearview camera. Bluetooth connectivity also enables hands-free calling, while premium sound is delivered via the four-speaker AM/FM/CD audio system with USB and auxiliary inputs.
