Are you looking to trade in your sedan, but want to try something different? Consider giving a 2016 Nissan Leaf SL a closer look. This preowned all-electric vehicle is a great introduction into the plug-in segment with its exceptional range and quality features.
Â
The 2016 Leaf runs on a 107-horsepower electric motor that gains its energy from the standard 30-kWh battery. According to U.S. News & World Report, the EV’s range sits at 107 miles, which is excellent for the class. That equates to a 124/101 mpg-equivalent (mpg-e) city/highway – you don’t see those numbers with a regular gasoline-powered vehicle! Battery refreshing is made possible by the on-board 6.6-kW charger, which will have you up and running in about six hours.
Â
Inside the cabin, the top-of-the-line SL trim delivers all your must-have creature comforts – and some. Leather upholstery covers the heated seats, which warm weary winter bodies even in the back row, while automatic climate controls keep you just the right temperature year-round. A 7-inch touchscreen houses a navigation system and a six-speaker audio system with HD radio, plus Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity keep you in touch with loved ones. All this rides on upgraded 17-inch alloy wheels, which are complemented by automatic LED headlights, foglights and a rear spoiler with a solar panel.
