Nissan Leaf Technology

Switch to Eco mode and takes the punch out of the throttle but give the car a range of 10 percent larger.

Nissan Leaf DRIVING

At 110km/h on the motorway, for instance, the 24kWh lithium-ion battery pack is quickly depleted and, if the remaining charge falls below 4kWh — power output is cut by 50 per cent and speed capped at 20km/h. Maximum speed is 145km/h.

With the trip computer showing just 20km to empty after our brief sojourn on down the motorway, we began to get anxious about whether we’d make it home — but the situation never reach crisis point. This is called “range anxiety” and Nissan is trying to change this to “awareness”, with standard satnav for example that tell you where the nearest charging station is located.

Leaf is an impressive car and one that could easily take the place of that petrol guzzler in the driveway, provided you don’t travel long distances. But Nissan is up front about the fact that it is not the car for everyone. Unless your have two cars, drive less than 100-120km each day and have off street parking, Nissan will recommend against buying the car.

Nissan also recommends installing a proper charge point at home.

The car comes with a special cable but at the very least requires the installation of a special wall socket on a dedicated 10amp circuit — the full monty will cost about $2000 but allow you to fully exploit the car’s green potential.

Quick charging the battery to 80 per cent capacity takes less than 30 minutes, but a full trickle charge takes up to eight hours. Nissan recommends against fast charging more than once a week of it could reduce battery life. If you’re caught short so to speak Nissan’s roadside assistance will send a flat bed truck to collect the car or give provide a quick charge to get you going using a portable generator. You can’t just plug in to someone’s extension lead.
