The new 2018 Nissan LEAF: Greater range, more excitement

 The new e-powertrain in the new 2018 Nissan LEAF delivers 110kW of power and 320Nm of torque, improving acceleration to 7.9s from 0 to 100 km/h, at the top of c-segment performance. 

The new 2018 Nissan LEAF has a range of 378 km NEDC (pending final homologation). Additionally the New Nissan LEAF is the first EV to undergo WLTP, allowing customers to drive up to 415 km in city conditions on a single charge. This test reflects real life situations more accurately. This means drivers can enjoy longer journeys, interconnected by the extended European CHAdeMO Quick-Charging network.

The new 2018 Nissan LEAF is packed with Intelligent Mobility innovative technology, including ProPILOT driver assistance for a safer, more comfortable drive and ProPILOT Park, for fully autonomous parking at the touch of a button.


ProPILOT is designed for use within a single lane on a highway, and is optimised for use in heavy traffic jam or in high-speed cruising scenarios

Charging time from alert to 80% (quick charging – 50kw) takes 40 to 60 minutes, while it’s of 7,5 hours from alert to 100% with a 7Kw Wallbox.

The new Nissan LEAF is the next generation of the world's best-selling zero-emissions electric vehicle. More than 283,000 customers have chosen the first-generation LEAF since it went on sale in 2010 – and now this all-new model offers even greater range, improved dynamic design, class leading advanced driver assistance technologies and enhanced connectivity.


The Nissan LEAF is the embodiment of Nissan Intelligent Mobility. It is a whole new driving experience, designed to move people with greater exhilaration, confidence and connection to the world around them.

The new Nissan LEAF’s revolutionary e-Pedal technology transforms the way people drive by enabling acceleration, deceleration and full stop with the simple increase or decrease of the pressure applied to the accelerator. By releasing the accelerator, the car will decelerate and come to a complete stop, even hill holding, without the need to press the brake pedal. 

With a deceleration rate of up to 0.2G, the e-Pedal eliminates the need for drivers to constantly move their foot from the accelerator to the brake pedal to slow down or stop. This helps reduce fatigue and stress in daily city driving, allowing the driver to use the brake pedal up to 90% less than in conventional cars.

This consumer proposition encompasses three main pillars; Intelligent Power, which is brought to life through the LEAF’s advanced new 40kW e-powertrain, with improved energy efficiency, increased torque and power output for more exciting driving; Intelligent Driving, which is technology designed to improve driving confidence, enhance safety and reduce stress; and Nissan Intelligent Integration, the linking of the car to wider society via connectivity and to energy grids via unique bi-directional charging technology.

Much more than just a 100% electric vehicle, the new Nissan LEAF is a mobile power unit, allowing customers to manage their energy use either through home or office solutions.

With an overall length of 4,49m, width of 1,79m, height of 1,54m and a wheelbase of 2,70m, the new Nissan LEAF also features a sleek profile, sharp, dynamic look with excellent aerodynamics, and a coefficient of drag (Cd) of 0.28. Anyone familiar with Nissan design will recognise the signature boomerang-shaped lamps, ‘V-motion’ front surround, while the blue elements such as the front grille and rear bumper’s moulding highlight the 100% electric, zero emission character of the car.

It is available in the following 10 exterior colours: Arctic Solid White, Solid Red, Bronze Metallic, Gun Metallic, Spring Cloud, Blade Silver, Magnetic Red, Pearl White, Metallic Black and two-tone with Pearl White body & Metallic Black Roof.
