Nissan opens order books for electric Leaf

Date: 06 September 2010

The Nissan Leaf

Nissan's electric Leaf model is now available to order in the UK. Customers can sign up online and pay a refundable £257 deposit for the car with deliveries starting in March 2011.

People intending to buy the £23,990 car, will get an opportunity to test-drive their prospective purchase by the end of this year, at which point they will need to formally confirm their order.

Paul Willcox, managing director of Nissan: "The Nissan Leaf is a milestone in Nissan's history. Launching in Japan and the US in the coming weeks and UK, Portugal & Ireland early next year, Nissan is the first manufacturer to bring credible and affordable electric vehicle motoring to the mass market."

Willcox added: "The Nissan Leaf is generating huge interest across the world, with more than 25,000 customers already putting down deposits in the US and Japan.

"We know that the benefits of electric mobility have struck a chord with motorists in the UK and initial interest across retail and fleet channels could result in demand outstripping initial supply."
