Nissan has unveiled the new Nissan Leaf in Europe, the next generation of the world's best-selling zero-emissions electric vehicle. Embodying the company's Nissan Intelligent Mobility vision, this new model has been reinvented to offer greater range, dynamic design, advanced driver assistance technologies and enhanced connectivity.

The new Nissan Leaf offers an improved range of 378km on a single charge, allowing drivers to enjoy longer journeys, interconnected by the extended European CHAdeMO Quick Charging network. Meanwhile, the new e-powertrain also delivers 110kW of power output and 320Nm of torque, improving acceleration and driver enjoyment.

The new Nissan Leaf is packed with ingenious technology, including ProPILOT advanced driver assistance system for a confident, more comfortable drive. ProPILOT uses the steering, braking and acceleration to assist the driver within single lane, low-speed traffic and highway cruisng scenarios. In slow moving traffic, it enables the New LEAF to autonomously slow down and stop where traffic flow ceases. It will then start to follow the car in front when the flow resumes. Also included is ProPILOT Park for fully autonomous parking.

The new Nissan Leaf's revolutionary e-Pedal technology transforms the way people drive by letting them start, accelerate, decelerate and stop - simply by increasing or decreasing the pressure applied to the accelerator. When the accelerator is fully released, the hydraulic and friction brakes are applied automatically, bringing the car to a complete stop and regenerating the braking energy to recharge the battery. The car holds its position, even on steep up and downhill slopes, until the accelerator is pressed again, taking the stress out of driving like never before.

The new Nissan Leaf is also much more than just a 100 percent electric vehicle. It is a mobile power unit complete with unique bi-directional charging. This means it can give back energy to power the world around it by connecting to homes and offices. It can even return any excess charge to top up and stabilise the local energy grid thanks to Nissan's innovative Vehicle to Grid technology.

To celebrate the European unveiling of the new second generation Nissan Leaf, a unique version is now on sale - the new Nissan Leaf 2.ZERO limited edition. This version is the first model in Europe to be fully equipped with Nissan's ProPILOT technology for the most confident and comfortable driving experience.
