If you're in the market for a new-to-you vehicle, but want to give plug-in power a whirl, the Nissan Leaf is most likely on your must-see list. After all, this EV is tantamount to all-electric power, known for its emission-free driving and enviro-friendliness.
Â
But that's not all the Leaf is regarded for. It's also acknowledged as one of the automotive industry's best plug-ins with driving dynamics that are akin to gasoline-powered vehicles. What's more, the Leaf is economical to buy and own, plus it's a pleasure to drive too.Â
Â
And speaking of economical, our preowned inventory at Kirkland Nissan is stocked with many Leaf EVs offering exceptional deals - like these 2014 Leaf SV models, which are all priced under $15,000.Â
Â
This trim comes standard with a 24-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack, which energizes the 80-kilowatt electric motor. It fetches 107 horsepower and 187 lb-ft of torque, which is quite admirable considering it's not run on traditional fossil fuels. When you are ready to charge the battery, the 6.6 kW onboard charger with 220-volt line will get you juiced up within just five hours. You won't experience long periods of downtime with this EV.
Â
The 2014 Leaf SV is also equipped with some really great features that add to its already favorable value. This includes a 7-inch display, six-speaker audio system and navigation, as well as a rearview camera, Bluetooth wireless communication, and heated front and rear seats. Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) and Traction Control System (TCS) are also standard for smooth and safe handling.
