Nissan Leaf - First Affordable, Mass Produced
Electric Car
The Nissan Leaf is a medium-size hatchback that comfortably seats five adults. It has a top speed of 90 mph and a range of over 100 miles.
The zero-emission car is powered by Lithium Ion batteries - such as used by cellphones and laptops.
Using a direct-current quick charger, the battery pack can be recharged up to 80 percent in less than 30 minutes.
Charging at home with 220-volt AC will take less than 8 hours.
Regenerative braking is also a key factor in extending the car's range.
Nissan says the Leaf will be priced about the same as the Sentra,
which suggests a sticker price around $30,000.
It will be launched in Japan, USA and Europe in late 2010. Nissan will build the car in Smyrna, TN.
