Nissan Leaf Cars
The Nissan Leaf is an all-electric car that has been available in New Zealand since 2011. With a range of up to 270km, the Leaf is perfect for city driving and short commutes. It is a spacious and comfortable vehicle that can seat five people comfortably.
One of the main benefits of the Nissan Leaf is its low running costs. Charging the car costs a fraction of what it would cost to fill up a petrol car, making it an excellent choice for environmentally-conscious drivers who are looking to save money on fuel. The car can be charged overnight using a standard home charging point, or quickly using one of the growing number of fast-charging stations around New Zealand.
In terms of performance, the Nissan Leaf offers instant torque from its electric motor, providing smooth and responsive acceleration. It also has regenerative braking, which means that when you brake or coast, the motor helps recharge the battery, increasing your range.
The Nissan Leaf comes with a range of safety features including airbags, anti-lock brakes and stability control as standard. It also has a five-star Euro NCAP safety rating, so you can be confident that you are driving a safe vehicle.
One thing to keep in mind when considering purchasing an electric vehicle like the Nissan Leaf is that charging infrastructure in New Zealand is still developing. While there are already over 1000 public charging stations around the country and more are being added every day, it’s important to plan your journeys ahead of time to ensure you have enough charge to get where you need to go.
Overall, if you’re looking for an eco-friendly car with low running costs and excellent performance for city driving or short commutes, then the Nissan Leaf could be just what you need.
