Electric Leaf prices fall by £2500
Date: 25 February 2013 | Author: Rachel Burgess
Nissan has slashed the price of its electric Leaf by £2500. It now costs £23,490 after the £5000 Government grant, or £239 per month.
Paul Willcox, senior vice-president, Nissan Europe, said: "Nissan's objective for the Leaf
has always been to bring zero-emission mobility within reach of the mass-market. Our price reduction underlines that commitment, and with no price premium even more motorists will become believers."
The move comes ahead of an updated version of the Leaf, which will start production at the carmaker's Sunderland plant in spring this year.
Winner of the World, European and Japan Car of the Year awards when it was launched in 2011, the Leaf's standard equipment includes satnav, rear-view parking camera, rapid charge, LED headlamps and Bluetooth connectivity.
As an electric car, it is exempt from road tax and benefit-in-kind taxation.
