2014 Nissan Leaf Dayton OH
Sales of the 2014 Nissan Leaf in Dayton, OH are booming. In fact, across the country, the sales of the Leaf continue to jump as Nissan puts more and more energy into getting more and more energy from their Leaf. Between interesting marketing and joint ventures to increase fuel efficiency, Nissan seems to be letting its favorite EV vehicle, the Leaf, lead the way.
For the 14th straight month, Nissan claims it has had record sales for the Leaf. In April 2014, it sold 2,088 leafs, a 7.8% increase from 2013. And as the Chevy Volt’s market share continues to dwindle, the battery powered electric Leaf seems to keep going and going. On top of great sales, the Nissan Leaf can claim a good milestone, hitting 50,000 sales in the US alone, and getting 115,000 sales worldwide. As more and more of the market is leaning towards green cars, whether they be hybrid, electric, or even hydrogen (though there aren’t many of those outside of California,) Nissan is doing its best to make the Leaf an even stronger player on its electric stage.
The 2014 Nissan Leaf in Dayton, OH already has a 15% increase in its range from a single charge over the previous year. Nissan doesn’t seem content to let that be all, as it continues to push for an even better number, such as the 185-mile mark on a single charge, which would keep it competitive to the hydrogen car market. And that’s not the only sector Nissan is working to improve. With efficiency in mind, Nissan has joined an alliance of big cars makers such as Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Subaru, and Mitsubishi to work together and improve fuel economy for both gas-powered and diesel-powered engines. With the aim of improving the output of these engines by 30% by 2020, the project will cost around $20 million, half of which will be put up by the manufacturers, the other being supplied by the Japanese government.
As Nissan continues to push the boundaries of EV vehicles, consumers should see the Leaf’s battery power continue to improve, as well as its overall efficiency jump up. The 2014 Nissan Leaf is quickly and quietly becoming one of the most appealing vehicles out there.
