Nissan LEAF moves over to the dark side
March 22, 2017
The Nissan LEAF is the world’s most popular electric car and now it has even more appeal thanks to the arrival of a new Black Edition.

The latest model is based on the Acenta grade and features LED headlamps, 16-inch black alloy wheels, black door mirror caps and a black rear roof spoiler. In addition, the all-new Black Edition adds blue-stitched mats to give the interior a truly premium finish.
It also comes equipped with Nissan’s latest technology as standard, including the NissanConnect EV telematics system and intelligent around view monitor.
The Black Edition is on sale now and is priced from £26,890 including the £4,500 government plug-in vehicle grant.
The limited edition model is a restricted production run up until August, 2017, with the first 200 customers receiving a free Wi-Fi hotspot – capable of pairing with up to eight devices.
The LEAF has an electric drivetrain and that means instantaneous torque when accelerating. It boasts a zero emission range of more than 150 miles and has a chassis that has been engineered specifically for UK drivers.
The car, which is built at the Nissan factory in Sunderland, is the world’s best-selling electric car with more than 250,000 on the road globally.
