Nissan recently announced their new no emissions electric car. Called the LEAF, it is scheduled to be launched in late 2010 in Japan, the United States and Europe. It is a medium-sized hatchback and can seat five adults. Lithium ion cells deliver 100 horses to the electric motor giving a driving range of 100 miles on a full charge with a top speed of 90 mph. Charging time takes approximately 8 hours on a standard 200V outlet. The US market price is expected to be about $30,000 so not a cheapie.
