It is no secret that electric cars (EV) are the alternative vehicles of the future. While Elon Musk's Tesla has spearheaded the interest, in EVs, a number of automakers are joining the bandwagon.
Although the interest is high with regards to energy-charged automobiles, how many a company can actually sell is big concern to address. The entry of the 2018 Nissan Leaf in this market is an interesting development to many.
According to Executive Manager Ted Christiano, business is definitely thriving. In fact, the official handling Nissan's branch at Boulder in Colorado shares that 80 percent of the new cars purchased in the area belong to the 2018 Leaf model line.
At Christiano's division, the Japanese brand is currently transacting around 200 to 300 units annually. It is perceived that a bigger production shop will be built if all of the company's American dealers follow Colorado's lead. Such forecast is considerably ideal judging from the truth that only 14,006 Nissan Leaf vehicles had been bought in 2016.
It is intriguing to note that at pocket markets, Nissan is making quite a difference with its EVs. Still, the general outlook is low since only a handful of Americans have an eye for electrically-driven automobiles. With that said, the market acceptance of the Leaf is somewhat puzzling.
Nissan's first-generation Leaf has come off the platform in 2010 which means that it is among the early batch of battery-charged vehicles. Since that time, around 100,000 units have already been purchased in the US.
However, the more expensive Tesla Model S and Model X have totally outclassed the Japanese cars in 2016. To become more competitive, the Yokohama-based auto manufacturer has enhanced its brand and promptly brought in the 2018 Nissan Leaf.
The new unit has introduced a tech-evolved EV. Notable specifications include a DC fast charging feature and Pro-Pilot autonomous driving technology. The front-wheel driven 2018 Nissan Leaf will unleash 107 horsepower with 187 pound-feet of torque. Battery capacity will range from 40 to 60KWh.
