The 2018 Leaf is designed with a fully electric fuel system to do more for the planet. If that thought is appealing, fear not: this high-tech car will save you money on fill-ups and on its sticker price, thanks to Nissan’s excellent value.
The Leaf draws its power from a clean 110kW AC synchronous motor engine. Without releasing fossil fuel emissions, this 2018 model offers an impressive 147 horsepower and 236 joules of torque. You won’t lose out on the thrill of the road with those numbers!
The Leaf’s Quick Charge cable offers reassurance that you’ll never find yourself stranded without power. In addition, a lithium ion traction battery also offers a 6.6 kW onboard charger. In half an hour, you will be able to recharge for a 90 miles trip, so you won’t be late. The 2018 Leaf can travel up to 150 miles on a charge, ranking it higher than most other vehicles in its class.
Chris Hall of Pocket Lint loves that the Leaf is available at a very affordable price, especially compared to the competition. Still, the reviewer notes that the Nissan is an excellent vehicle all around, even without considering its affordability. He awarded the vehicle a 4.5 out of 5 stars and called it an “electric for the people.â€
At $32,465, the 2018 Leaf is far more affordable than many other electric vehicles. Schedule a test drive at your local Kirkland Nissan dealer and start saving the planet today!Â
