The 2017 Nissan LEAF is unlike any car you’ve previously come across. The all-electric, zero-emissions vehicle is a performance wonder. Moreover, as “GEARshift Tv†reveals in their consumer review below, the SL model is stocked with comfort and convenience.
The heart of the 2017 LEAF SL is a 30 kWh, 360-volt lithium-ion battery. This offers power to the 80 kW AC synchronous motor, which for its part provides 107 HP and 187-lb.-ft. of torque. After juicing up the car’s 3.6 kW charger via a 220-volt outlet for approximately seven hours, the machine will be able to go a full 107 miles before needing an additional boost of energy. That’s plenty of range to get around Seattle, Renton, and Bellevue!
The LEAF SL is also well-outfitted with cabin-based technological inclusions. Dual-zone automatic air conditioning is offered in conjunction with heated seats to provide fantastic climate control. A SIRIUS-enabled AM/FM/HD radio brings enormous entertainment options and helps keep the kids happy. Further, a navigation system is standard, meaning you won’t have to whip out your smartphone to get directions.
