Based on current five-cycle EPA testing, the 2012 Nissan LEAF can travel and enviable 73 miles. While this is impressive, Nissan is not stopping there. They know with the right changes, they can be hitting 100 miles. Afterall, Nissan is committed to bringing the best in 'green' vehicles.
As a result, Nissan intends to equip the 2013 LEAF with a redesigned battery pack and more efficient electric motor. With these two features joining forces, we can expect to see a 25-percent longer driving range for the LEAF. When looking at the numbers the LEAF currently boasts, you get a combined (city and highway) of 73 miles. That should be increased to 90 miles in the 2013.
We here at Yark Nissan support Nissan's initiatives. What's more is that Nissan has additional ideas and goals up its sleeve. Not only will there be improved fuel economy, but you can relax in leather seats and feel secure with the new 6.6-kilowatt charger.
