The world’s first mass produced electric car will come with a warranty lasting eight years and 100,000 miles.
That was the announcement from Carlos Tavares, the executive vice president and a member of the board of directors of Nissan Motor Company Ltd.
His announcement, made at the opening plenary of Plug-in 2010 in San Jose, California, means that the LEAF will offer the same warranty terms as the Chevrolet Volt.
The Nissan LEAF will begin its roll out later this year in California, Arizona, Oregon, Washington and Tennessee. It will have a starting price of $32,780 with the full Federal income tax credit of $7,500 slashing the price to $25,280. In California the vehicle also qualifies for a $5,000 CVRP rebate.
There are already 17,000 reservations for the Nissan LEAF.
