Nissan Leaf tours Europe on electric energy

Nissan Leaf: Managed a tour of Europe.

LONDON: The electric Nissan Leaf has taken to the roads of Europe for an all-electric Grand Tour, traveling across Europe’s most breath-taking rural and coastal driving routes.
The epic journey saw the Leaf take on six of the most beautiful drives in Italy, Spain, Germany, Norway, Scotland and France; including Italy’s iconic Mount Etna and historic cities, such as Granada, Spain, and Marseille, France.
The new Leaf 30 kWh journeyed over 400 miles (650 km) on an adventure to visit Europe’s most spectacular destinations, showcasing its low running costs of just three euros per 100 km.
Across Europe, 54 percent of drivers would prefer to travel by car rather than by any other form of transport, but with many concerned about the cost of fuel, Nissan has proven itself to be the ultimate travel companion.
With the Leaf’s 30 kWh battery now offering 155 miles (250 km) in driving range and as many as 2,800 quick chargers installed across Europe, driving a zero-emission car is more practical and enjoyable than ever before, giving EV drivers total peace of mind to enjoy longer cross country drives.
Gareth Dunsmore, director of Electric Vehicles at Nissan Europe, said: “The Nissan Leaf is much more than just a city car and is an ideal zero-emission solution. With five seats and 370 liters standard luggage capacity, the Nissan Leaf 30 kWh is perfect for those long family getaways this summer.”
