Comfort and plug-in power go hand-in-hand with the 2016 Nissan Leaf S. This preowned model is ideal for Seattle commuters that log many hours behind the wheel with its airy cabin and smooth all-electric battery performance.
The 2016 Leaf runs on an 80-kW electric motor that’s generated by a 24-kWh battery pack for a total of 107 hp and 187 lb-ft of torque. Range on this EV rings in at 84 miles on a single charge, while acceleration remains strong with a time of 10.2 seconds when jutting from zero to 60 mph. When it’s due for a battery refresh, just plug in the Leaf to a 240-volt power source and the 3.3 kW charger will juice itself up in about eight hours. In no time, you’ll be back on the road enjoying the EV’s whisper-quiet and silky-smooth operation.
Since the Leaf’s battery pack is located under the floor, the cabin feels airy and roomy with adult-friendly back seat legroom of 33.3 inches. There’s no shortage of headroom in the front row either with 41.2 inches, plus the driver’s side is height adjustable with a tilt-only steering wheel. Cloth upholstery, full power accessories and heated front seats also add to your comfort, while the 5-inch color touchscreen boasts Bluetooth connectivity and a rearview camera for your convenience.
