New Leaf takes place in the långdistansklubben

The blockbuster elbilsveteranen have received a toppvariant with more of the cream, and thus longer range. The battery capacity is 62 kWh, while the engine produces 217 horsepower.

over the years, räckviddsångest not rarely been associated with the Leaf, which when it was launched in Sweden as the 2012 model year had a real scope at a measly 15 mil, max.

It is gratifying krämtillskottet, which provides a range of 38.5 miles, reserved to the customers who are fast are in the loop and sign up for delivery. Any other interpretation of Nissan's marketing in the press releases from the in January, released on the new in the days, can't do: The stronger and thus accelerationssnabbare the japanese, with the ease of the name Nissan Leaf e+ 3.Zero Limited Edition, will be for Europe only to go out in 5,000 copies (limited edition means limited edition).

On the question from the DN, however, takes Alexandra Österplan, press officer at Nissan Sweden, the sting of the ultimate wording from last winter:

– At the launch in January, there was a cap of 5,000 cars in 2019. Today, there is no ceiling on the number of cars and size – just to order.

, it is the message now.

the order books for the new Nissan Leaf at Nissan retailers opened on 9 January. There is great interest, says Österplan:

– the Allocation of cars will be in the pace and order in which the orders come in.

in Parallel with the more powerful the car market, and Nissan also Leaf 3 Zero, the continuation of the current model, but updated with a larger touch screen and new colours to choose from, including tvåfärgskombinationer. It has a battery pack on the 40 kWh and a maximum range of 27 miles. It is and has been a great success: Europe's most sold electric car in 2018, and Norway's best-selling car model of all categories in the same year.

Under a generous sun in the elbilstäta Oslo and the surrounding area test drive we are the Nissan Leaf, the e-plus 3 Zero. In appearance it differs not much from the ”little sister” Leaf 3 Zero. The 70 horsepower increases the effect, to the 217 horses, is of course a faster car. The suspension has been strengthened both at the front and at the rear for the increased power should be handled.

on winding roads along the oslo fjord. We note no direct disturbance noise, the suspension provides a comfortable ride and seating comfort is excellent in the front seats and really good even in the rear.

Nissan calls e-pedal, then the charge generated in the braking action which follows when the driver eases on the gas pedal, works great. The are really put to the test during dense driving on the entrance to Oslo. Only on a few occasions do I need to switch to the brake pedal in order to keep my position in the köeländet.

It has turned against Nissan that the Leaf lacks the liquid cooling of the batteries, because it allows you to be conservative with fast. The upgraded Leafen also lacks the liquid cooling, something that Niko Tillan, product manager for electric vehicles at Nissan Nordic Europe, do not see as a problem.

" the Influx of air has improved, which makes the heat the batteries radiates the spread better. And despite the fact that it now moves on 288 cells instead of, as previously, the 192 cells, " says Tillan.

He adds:

the Car is built for owners who snabbladdar not more than once daily – so see our customers out.
