Nissan's UK factory commences production of the 2018 LEAF electric vehicle model.

The automotive world is abuzz with excitement as Nissan unveils the new 2018 Nissan LEAF, the best-selling electric car in the UK and Europe. The new model, which started production at Nissan's plant in Sunderland, UK, promises to be a game-changer in the electric vehicle (EV) market.

The new LEAF boasts an impressive range of 235 miles, thanks to its larger 40kWh battery pack. In real-world conditions, this translates to approximately 175 miles, making the new LEAF almost as practical as an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) car.

Nissan's commitment to EV technology is evident in the advanced features of the new LEAF. The car comes equipped with 17'' alloys, auto high beam, Climate control, E-Pedal, good connectivity, surround cameras, and more. The new model also features Nissan's V2X technology, which was used to power a Christmas tree during the celebration of the production of the 250,000th LEAF EV in Sunderland.

The new LEAF is not just a technological marvel; it is also more mainstream and usable compared to its previous version. With a less quirky look, the new model is set to appeal to a wider audience.

The success of the Nissan LEAF is not new. Since its launch in 2011, Nissan has sold over 85,000 LEAFs in Europe. In 2018, the Nissan LEAF was the best-selling car in Norway and the best-selling electric car in the UK and Europe.

Nissan led the way in introducing EVs to Europe, and the car world is driving headlong into electric cars with new EVs from almost every car maker on the planet. Nissan is excited to bring the new Nissan LEAF to European markets from February 2018, making it easier than ever for consumers to make the switch to electric.

First European deliveries of the 2018 Nissan LEAF EV are expected in February 2018. With its impressive range, advanced features, and practical design, the new LEAF is poised to sell even more than previous models. So, get ready to embrace the future of driving with the new Nissan LEAF.
