Nissan Leaf



This is the nissan leaf, it is an electric car that runs fully off battery. It can reach a speed of 90 mph and can hold charge for 100 miles. The nissan leaf takes 8 hours to fully charge, but there are going to be stations that will charge the car in 20 minutes, the problem with that is it will only charge 80%. This falls under the technology field.

The Leaf is a cool efficient car that will make it so we don't pollute the earth, but is it really going to make things easier for people? I don't think so because people aren't going to want to wait 20 minutes to get there car charged. There has been a tone of studying and working through kinks with the batteries and they found a way that will make it as fast to charge, that will hold charge and go the speed needed.

This is going to be talked about a little bit but I don't think it will be a huge subject this year. They are going to have to face with all the battery problems and how to get them all to preform right.
