Paris, France
- Nissan
will unveil a concept vehicle that offers insight into how Nissan could
expand its range of zeroemission vehicles at this years Paris Motor
Show.
Called the Townpod, this concept
combines eye-catching design with a spacious and practical interior.
It is designed to offer
zero-emission mobility to a future generation of environmentally
conscious motorist.
Nissan
LEAF
Continuing the zero-emission theme, Nissan LEAF will make its Paris
Motor Show debut, just ahead of the first European customer deliveries
early next year.
Nissan LEAF is a 100% electric
vehicle (EV), promising zero tailpipe emissions and low running costs.
It is the first purpose-designed, mass-produced EV from the
manufacturer and is just the first in a range of EVs due from the
company.
Power comes from a
Nissan-developed compact electric motor positioned at the front of the
car to drive the front wheels. The AC motor develops 80kW of power and
280Nm of torque, enough for a maximum speed of more than 140kmh.
A full battery charge delivers a
range of about 160km, which will meet the daily needs of 80% of
customers.
The electric motor is ‘fuelled’ by
a Nissan-developed laminated lithium-ion battery with a power output of
more than 90kW. The 48-module battery is mounted under the seats and
floor, and regenerative energy reclaimed under braking and coasting is
fed directly to the battery to ensure minimum waste of energy.
