All-New LEAF Insights – Ep1: Sleek, bold and thoughtful design | Nissan
Leaf is an icon for us. It’s it’s one of our core heartbeat models. We’ve sold around 700,000 Leaf since 2010. Over 28 billion km covered by our customers. So we have really substantial real world insight about the customer. um understanding their needs and understanding how those needs have evolved since the early days of Leaf until now. We have a long established track record about durability and safety with Leaf and we knew this was really a foundation to the next generation. We wanted this to be a really credible alternative to a combustion car. To do this, we focused on three key things. The first one was about balancing the emotional and rational appeal, ensuring the car looks sleek and bold whilst meeting the real world needs of families. The second point was around supporting long-distance travel, allowing users to confidently take a holiday journey of 300 to 500 km between stops, ensuring impressive highway speed and efficiency. The third important area was around bringing easy and seamless charging. We know that the average refueling stop is around 14 minutes and in that time we can add over 250 km of charge with seamless plug and charge capability. We reimagined the Leaf as a crossover creating distinct personality, high-tech feel and added advanced features. This is the most air efficient car we’ve ever made with a drag coefficient of 0.26. The front fascia, sleek profile, wheel design and active grill shutter all contribute to this. It all starts at the front. The point where air first come into contact with the car. Not only is it weak, the fasia also demonstrates strength and premiumness along with a sense of lassness. Even the panoramic glass loop contribute to exceptional aerodynamics. It allows us to reducing the vehicle height at the critical air detachment point by 12 mm while maintaining the headroom inside cart of the eing functionality. To prioritize the aerodynamics, we spend a lot of time on the fenders to get those area light and create a beauty in the body surfacing. The all new Leaf is not just about being an echco-friendly options. It’s about being a credible alternative to combustion engine vehicle.
From the flowing body to the sweeping fastback silhouette featuring the Dimming Panoramic Roof, every element of the all-new #Nissan #LEAF was designed to slip through the air smoother – and take you further.
