Commuting into the city comes with its perils – congestion, accidents, road closures and detours. By the time you make it to the office, your nerves are shot. You just want to park your vehicle and leave your bad drive behind you. But, what if your nightmare has just begun? Tight underground garages and parallel parking spots can be downright frightful in Seattle.
Â
Allow the 2018 Nissan Leaf to deliver some solace. The top-of-the-line SL trim comes equipped with an Intelligent Around View Monitor (I-AVM), which acts as a second set of eyes to help you navigate the most difficult maneuvers.
Â
Â
This four-camera system works by creating a virtual composite 360-degree bird's-eye view of the Leaf and its surrounding environment. To see what and where you need to see, the display automatically shows front, rear and curbside split-screen views.Â
Â
For example, when you shift into reverse to start backing in, the split-screen display provides images of the rear view and the overhead. Colored lines also help guide you into the spot and gauge the distance between the Leaf and other obstacles. When you shift the car back into drive, the display automatically switches to the front view image.
