Nissan will be producing EV called Nissan Leaf

The upcoming EV Nissan Leaf.

I really like this car. Nissan Leaf is a five-door car and more like designed for a family. It’s fully electric car, no hybrid.  The new EV should have a top speed approaching 80 miles per hour and a range of at least 100 miles.

There is an official website for Nissan Leaf.  The car should be powered with advanced lithium-ion batteries.

The car power’s is taken from unique array of thin, laminated lithium ion cells.

Technical Specifications:

• capable of delivering over 90 kW of power
• The motor is in the front and delivers 80 kW (107 horsepower) and a healthy 280 Nm of torque (208 pound-feet)
• Top speed of over 140 km/h (87 mph).
• 48 lithium ion modules
• To have a full charge, a 200-volt, single-phase AC charger takes less than eight hours (100 volt single-phase would take a double)

The launch will be in late 2010 in Japan, the United States, and Europe, Nissan LEAF ushers in a new era of mobility – the zero-emission era
