If you are in the market for a long-range, fully-electric car, consider the 2017 Nissan Leaf SL. When it comes to environmentally-friendly vehicles, this is the gold standard. With a modern interior layout, attractive exterior styling, and improved overall performance, it’s easy to see why no other model can come close.
Powered by an 80-kW AC synchronous motor that produces 107 horsepower and 187 lb-ft of torque, the Leaf has an increased driving distance of 107 miles as opposed to the previous model’s 84 miles. The Charge package includes a 6.6-kW onboard cable and an extra DC fast-charger port for quick energy replenishment.
The top-of-the-line SL trim level adds LED headlights and fog lights for a sleek look. Heated leather front and back seats help to keep passengers cozy during the harsh winter months in the Pacific Northwest.
A rearview camera allows you to back out of the garage without hitting anything, and navigation is displayed on a 7-inch touchscreen monitor. According to Edmunds, Bluetooth connectivity enables hands-free calling.
