Nissan LEAF Test Drive and Review

Nissan LEAF Test Drive & Review- Green Energy News had the recent pleasure of test driving the brand spankin’ new, highly-anticipated zero emission vehicle (ZEV) developed by Nissan, dubbed LEAF – or Leading, Environmentally Friendly, Affordable, Family Car. Mark Perry, Director of Product Planning for Nissan North America, talks about the vision behind the Nissan LEAF and touches on it’s eco-friendly features, cost/price, battery/charging information, and availability. The LEAF we drove is a pre-production prototype… basically the production model. This is NOT a “mule” or the VERSA “shell” which was making a tour across the US earlier this year. Design: Smooth lines, aerodynamic, and pleasing to look at. The LEAF might not be the most eye-catching car on the road, but we feel like it will appeal to most consumers in the compact car market. We saw it as a cross between a luxury crossover SUV (think Lexus RX 350), a Toyota Matrix, and the Nissan Versa. Performance- The 107 HP (80kw) motor puts out 206 lb-ft of torque which is readily available at 0 MPH! We were more than surprised with the amount of pep the LEAF showed off the line. At moderate speeds (approx 45 MPH) the LEAF had NO problems passing other vehicles with minimal efforts. Towards the end of the video, you can see the LEAF accelerating into a right turn, reaching speeds of almost 50 MPH from a creeping start with ease. The LEAF is responsive and fun to drive. Is it a sportscar… NO! Is it more fun to drive

More info in the 2009 Honda Fit – www.myride.com The 2009 Honda Fit doesn’t look much different from the 2008 Honda Fit, but actually, its been totally redesigned. The compact car retains the overall shape and dimensions, but put them side by side, and there is not single piece of sheet metal that carries over. Fuel economy for the base Honda Fit is 28 miles per gallon in the city and 35 on the highway, and for the Fit Sport, 27 and 33 respectively. Check out more on www.myride.com
