The new Nissan LEAF

The newly-developed ProPILOT Park assists the driver to park in three easy steps by controlling the steering, accelerator, brakes, gear shift and even the parking brake.

This advanced automated parking system can recognize the type of parking space and guide the car into front or back-in parking spots, as well as parallel park.

The e-Pedal allows the driver to start, accelerate, decelerate and stop using only the accelerator pedal.
For instant acceleration, press down hard on the accelerator pedal. Lift off the pedal and the e-Pedal mimics stepping on the brake pedal, allowing the vehicle to slow down and even come to a complete stop.

In stop-and-go city traffic, the e-Pedal greatly reduces the need to shift from one pedal to the other, making driving simpler and more engaging. It even allows sporty driving on winding roads, making the process of driving more exciting.

Lithium-ion batteries have higher energy densities than lead-acid batteries or nickel-metal hydride batteries, so it is possible to make the battery size smaller than others.

The latest Nissan LEAF battery uses materials which can store a higher density of lithium-ion meaning our customers can drive an even greater distance.

The e-Powertrain powers our EVs and removes the need for an internal combustion engine. It is a lightweight, compact system that produces extremely low vibrations and generates instant torque. These elements combine to deliver a high quality, smooth and very responsive drive.

The e-Powertrain’s key components are its inverter, high-power electric motor, reduction drive and power delivery module (PDM). The unit was developed to thrive in a range environments around the world, displaying high performance and high durability in all of them.
