We adore talking about the LEAF because it’s such a terrific vehicle. Nissan has really managed to bring all-electric power to the masses with this line of vehicles, and now, the 2018 S model has improved upon their efforts even further. It’s mightily capable with a much greater range, quick charging ability, and some wonderful new style cues.
Now with an increased range of 150 miles on a single charge, this EV will take you to wherever you need to go within the greater Seattle area. It comes with a 110 kW engine that’s approximately 37% more powerful than the outgoing model’s motor, too. That extra oomph results in a total output of 147 horses and 236 joules. And since the car utilizes a 120V/240V cable for charging, you’ll be able to juice up the lithium-ion battery enough in just 30 minutes to go up to 90 miles.
The 2018 LEAF S looks fantastic, too. The delightful Nissan V-Motion grille is now on the front and it’s complemented by striking boomerang headlights. It’s all rounded out by the new “floating roof†concept. Oh, and one more thing: all its added power doesn’t come at a price because this LEAF is the same size as the previous.
