Seattle, there’s a different way to drive. We’re all familiar with hybrid technology by now, but when it comes to true all-electric vehicles, it’s not just the uber-expensive Tesla that’s offering America a glimpse of the future. Instead, it’s Nissan that’s stepped up to the plate to provide consumers with EV magnificence. Case in point? The 2016 LEAF SV.
The beating heart of the 2016 LEAF SV is undeniably its all-electric motor with 30-kWh lithium-ion battery. It produces 107 horses and 187-lb.-ft. of torque—absolutely no gasoline or conventional fuel required. And while you’ll certainly be doing your planet a favor by driving this car, you’ll also be helping yourself. The setup achieves an average MPGe rating of 124 city / 101 highway. Wow!
This is a nicely outfitted EV, as well. The front seats keep you toasty in the fall and winter with their heated functionality. SiriusXM AM/FM/HD/Satellite radio is on-hand to delight with an awesome range of entertainment options, but more importantly, the GPS navigation system always makes sure you know where you’re going.
