much time would you save, zipping along in the carpool lane? LEAF
isn’t just a planetfriendly way to get around, it’s the 100% electric car that works for you. You may
even enjoy tax benefits and lower maintenance costs. And with five doors and seating
for five, LEAF makes driving electric an everyday reality. Plus loads of fun – because
freedom from the pump comes with amazing acceleration and a corner-hugging ride.
Did we mention all the great perks, too? The 2013 100% electric Nissan LEAF.

CHARGE. DRIVE. REPEAT.

IT’S THAT EASY.
On average, Americans drive less than 29 miles a day.2
NISSAN LEAF gets you 2½ times that on a single charge.
Just plug it in to charge overnight and in the morning you’ll be ready to go,
with tools to help you manage your range along the way. Of course, driving
at moderate, more constant speeds is always a good idea. You can even
switch to Eco mode to improve your range up to 10% in certain conditions.
With LEAF, the little things can make a big difference. And for added
peace of mind, Nissan provides three years of complimentary roadside
assistance with every LEAF.4
“Fill up” at home. Faster than ever.
With the 240-volt home charging dock, LEAF SV and SL trims charge in about
4 hours while the S trim charges in a standard 7 hours – or 4 with the
available S Charge Package.5 All you have to do is plug it in, like you would your
laptop or cell phone. And to take advantage of off-peak rates, you can set a
charging timer right on the dash, remotely from a mobile device or computer,
or from your smartphone with the CARWINGS® app.6
The comprehensive Nissan LEAF lithium-ion battery warranty also
protects against capacity loss below 9 bars of capacity (out of 12) as
shown on the LEAF’s capacity gauge for a period of 5 years/60,000
miles (whichever occurs first).

There are plenty of tools right on your dashboard to help you get the most out
of every charge. You’ll always see your battery level, and how many miles remain in
your driving range.8 Driving efficiently? You won’t have to guess. The power
meter shows how much power you’re using – and generating, thanks to LEAF’s
regenerative braking system that captures the energy created while you coast
or brake, and recycles it back into the power supply. And if you’re doing really
well, you’ll grow a virtual forest on the Eco drive indicator.
Charge on the go. In more places than ever.
With approximately 15,000 public charging stations that will be in
place by 2014, range anxiety is a thing of the past. You can even plan
trips in your LEAF based on the availability of charging stations near
your destination. Visit http://nissan.chargepointportal.net/external/
