where to buy a Nissan Leaf in Seattle Washington

With the rise in popularity of all-electric vehicles, itâ€™s only a matter of time before auto manufacturers extend their product lines to include various body styles and configurations. But, Nissan, they are ahead of the pack since unveiling their latest concept car called the Leaf Open Car.Â

Sporting an open-air design, the roofless Leaf EV was just released in Tokyo at a zero-emissions forum earlier this month. The electric car was displayed at the event to celebrate the milestone of 100,000 sales of the Nissan Leaf in Japan since the model was first introduced in 2010.

Based on the second-generation Leaf, which was released this year, the Leaf Open Car retains its two-row design, but sports an entirely new body with only two doors, a swept-back windshield and a tall C-pillar with no roof to be found â€“ not even a convertible. Itâ€™s quite a sight â€“ no wonder it garnered great fanfare at the forum!

Unfortunately, there are no immediate production plans â€“ if any â€“ for the Leaf Open Car, but it may prove to be a good testing ground for future Nissan models and body styles.

In the meantime, you can enjoy your summer with zero-emissions performance in a conventional four-door Leaf EV. At Kirkland Nissan, our inventory is stocked with new and used models, providing you withÂ the best all-electric selection in one lot. Call us today to schedule a test drive!
