The 2013 Nissan Leaf is a one hundred percent electric vehicle for the 21st century. The Nissan Leaf utilizes an AC synchronous motor and lithium-ion battery to prevent you from having to fill up on gasoline ever again. The added bonus of having an electric engine means that you'll barely, if at all, hear the engine running. Every time you apply the brakes, the electric motor uses that kinetic energy and converts it into battery energy.
You're in for a treat when you step inside the 2013 Nissan Leaf. By merging practical features for people who love to drive, the end result of the new Leaf is fun. Also, an innovative drive selector lets you shift into the available B-mode to increase braking force and response.
Live free, drive electric. Experience the 2013 Nissan Leaf today!
