Interior and Features of Nissan LEAF in College Park, MD

1. Electric Powertrain and Drivetrain Performance

The base S model has a 110 kW AC synchronous motor that generates 147 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. This powertrain is paired with a 40 kWh lithium-ion battery and a regenerative braking system that transforms the driving experience. The S model can switch to the Eco mode for enhanced energy efficiency. 

The S model has an estimated electric driving range of 149 miles. The EPA-estimated energy efficiency for the electric drive battery is 123 MPGe in city areas, 99 MPGe on the highway, and 111 MPGe combined. A Level 2 charger can restore the battery to 100% charge in an EPA-estimated 7.75 hours, which makes overnight charging easy.

2. e-Pedal 

The e-Pedal is a standard feature on both LEAF models. This feature works by allowing drivers to control the acceleration and deceleration of the electric hatchback using only one pedal. You can give the car power by pressing down on the accelerator pedal, and then gently lift pressure from the pedal to signal braking power. If you need to come to an emergency stop, you can always use the brake pedal. 

3. Automatic Braking

The S has plenty of standard driver assistance features for automated braking that help keep you safe on the road. The S model is equipped with front and rear automatic braking that helps provide braking power quickly to help avoid an accident when obstacles are detected. 

The rear braking feature is accented with rear cross-traffic alert and a rear sonar system that can help identify objects that may collide with your vehicle. The front braking feature comes with a forward collision warning and pedestrian detection to help identify potential frontal impacts. 

4. Auto Headlights

Auto headlights are a great feature for an eco-friendly model like the LEAF S. The S model has halogen headlights while going up to the next trim has LED headlights with LED signature Daytime Running Lights. However, both of these trims come with Intelligent Auto Headlights for convenience driving at night.
