Nissan LEAF
Hats off to the Nissan engineers who built an electric car that not only performs very well, but is also well suited for road trips. Its handling and driving pleasure are comparable to other compact cars. With a 130- to 160-km operating range, the Leaf has what it takes to attract a good number of buyers. As an added plus, its dashboard is both practical and original.
