Leaf does not conjure up images of a tough or sporty car. It does sound like something you could relax in, though. Well find out soon enough as Nissan has priced its new LEAF electric car at $32,780 with a lease program for $349 a month.
This 2011 eco-friendly car will be available in December this year and Nissan is already taking reservations. Better get yours in if youre interested, because the LEAF will also qualify for a $7,500 tax credit which sounds like a real deal. There is a $99 reservation fee, which is refundable, but the reservation also gets you access to Nissan LEAF promotional events.
New Jersey new Nissan dealers believe the Leaf will be a big hit and anticipate great sales. Some states, like Georgia, Oregon and California offer additional tax credits or carpool lane access for LEAF drivers. Its obvious that clean energy will be encouraged and rewarded more as the years progress, so those of us getting in on the ground floor will have the advantage of being comfortable with this technology when it becomes mainstream.
More than just efficient and green-sounding, the SV trim car has some promising features, like advanced navigation system, enabling pre-heat/pre-cool and charging control, and internet/smart phone connectivity to the car. Some other goodies which come standard are Intelligent-key with push-button start; Bluetooth connectivity and Sirrius/XM satellite radio. Oh, lets not forget roadside assistance.
In Bayonne, new Nissan dealerships are also pleased with the safety features on the LEAF. Among them are traction control, stability control, and six airbags. Moving up to the SL trim car, for a modest $940, buyers also can experience automatic headlights, fog lights a rearview monitor and solar panel spoiler.
When it comes to electric cars, many of us dont quite understand them yet. Your New Jersey new Nissan dealer will offer charging equipment and can explain everything you need to know about this new electric wonder.
Nissan will sell personal charging docks and hook up buyers with a home assessment and installation. The cost is separate, but qualifies for more tax credits. An in-home charging dock, installed, runs about $2,200 and qualifies for a 50 percent tax credit.
The really good news, though, is that the LEAF will use only about $3 worth of power to fully charge. As part of the EV Project, customers in select areas like Phoenix, San Diego, Portland, Seattle and Nashville will be eligible for free charging stations and installation.
Still, customers of Bayonne new Nissan cars will find that there are many financial advantages to buying the LEAF, not to mention being the first on the block to own an electric car. Most people will be surprised at how little difference they notice in driving an electric car and the long-term savings and environmental benefits are huge.
