The all-new, zero-emission Leaf is making its China debut this week at the 15th annual Guangzhou Auto Show. It will be on display along with Nissanâ€™s Vmotion 2.0 concept car and the Venucia T70 â€“ a brand that is part of Nissanâ€™s joint venture with Chinese company Dongfeng Venucia Motor Co.

The new Leaf recently premiered in Japan to much excitement from automotive and EV enthusiasts alike. It offers a greater range (150 miles), advanced driver assist technologies and a cutting-edge design â€“ all of which enhance the Leafâ€™s overall enjoyment, connectivity and performance. The Leaf also comes standard with ProPILOT autonomous driving technology, ProPILOT Park and e-Pedal.

Nissan recently brought the EV to Seattle, Washington to give curious fans a closer look. Hereâ€™s Tom Voelk from Driven Car Reviews with a preview of the world's most talked about electric car:

To date, the Nissan Leaf is already the best-selling EV in the world with 300,000 units sold worldwide in 49 countries. The 2018 model is currently available in Japan, but is expected to arrive on North American soil in early 2018.

2018 Nissan Leaf Named Motor Trend Car of the Year Contender

The 2018 Nissan Leaf hasnâ€™t even hit North American roads, but thatâ€™s not stopping the EV from raking up accolades and honors. It was recently named a contender for Motor Trendâ€™s Car of the Year, which is an annual award given by the magazine to acknowledge the best new or significantly refreshed cars.

The 2018 Leaf was recognized for its attractive aerodynamic design, superb semi-autonomous driving option, and amazing pricing, as well as its 150-mile range from the 40-kW-hr battery.Â

This includes one of the Leafâ€™s newest features called ProPILOT Assist. According to Nissan, this technology relieves driver workload by reducing the amount of driver acceleration, steering, and braking input under certain conditions. Then there is e-Pedal â€“ another innovative technology that lets drivers start, accelerate, decelerate and stop by increasing or decreasing the pressure applied to the accelerator. When the accelerator is fully released, regenerative and friction brakes are applied automatically, bringing the Leaf to a complete stop.

Smart mobility proved the driving force of the 2017 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) - with critics offering generous acclaim to sustainable performance and plug-in capabilities. The future, they declared, is no longer reserved for traditional engines. Instead hybrid technology will define every mile.

It comes as no surprise, therefore, that Nissanâ€™s latest Leaf secured the showâ€™s highest honor.

According to Hybrid Cars, the 2018 Leaf was recently given an impressive trophy for its case - earning CES recognition as the Best of Innovation for Vehicle Intelligence and Self-Driving Technology. This achievement (which serves as Nissanâ€™s first international award) was given with great enthusiasm, with critics celebrating several key EV features:

Drive-Range: anchored by a 40-kWh lithium-ion battery, the new Leaf boasts a 150-mile all-electric capability. This allows consumers to effortlessly navigate the demands of every day, sparing them constant visits to the charging station.

Fast Connections: utilizing an advanced 240-volt port system, this Nissan sedan can achieve a charge of 88 miles in less than thirty minutes.

The e-Pedal: this exclusive function allows drivers to seamlessly enhance or decrease their speed, requiring only a single foot pedal to control performance.Â

These features ensure powerful responses, optimizing the 2018 Leaf for work, play, and every moment between.
