Nissan Unveils its Concept Leaf NISMO

 

Fully-electric vehicles have been a hot topic in recent years, with many of them being a little bit “hit or miss.” Nissan is hoping to take electric cars to the next level with their new concept car, the Leaf NISMO, which was recently on display at the Tokyo Motor Show.

Nissan has worked hard to combine the best of future-thinking electric automotive technology with the kind of upgraded exterior features that today’s drivers hunger for. For example, the Nissan Leaf NISMO applies racing “know-how” to the car’s body to make it more aerodynamic.

The lower and wider design also includes “grippier” wheels and red-accented bumpers, sport-tuned suspension and signature red details on the black interior. Add to this an in-your-face black stripe down the center of the hood; it all contributes to the high-performance feel of this environmentally-friendly vehicle.

But many of these sexy exterior features aren’t just for looks: Nissan emphasizes that they’re specifically meant to reduce “drag” and increase the aerodynamic efficiency of the vehicle.

The Nissan Leaf NISMO also features a custom computer which helps the car accelerate instantly — at any speed.

This second-generation edition of Nissan’s “Leaf” model includes an electric motor that rates at 147 horsepower — 40 horses more over the first model – although Nissan technicians continue to strive towards improvements.

The concept Nissan Leaf NISMO unveiled in Tokyo takes the idea of electric vehicles many “next steps” forward. Look for continued improvements as Nissan works to make electric vehicles both efficient, sexy and fun to drive. Want to know more of what’s on the horizon?
