LEAF-y X’mas tree sparkles

The best-selling electric vehicle on the roads Nissan LEAF transforms itself into a Nissan TREE today 

The Christmas car features a spectacular festive light display, powered entirely by its own regenerative braking energy system through e-Pedal and B mode

Innovative Nissan e-Pedal and B mode regenerate energy under braking and decelerating, extending drivers’ range during commute

Energy regenerated through driving the Nissan LEAF for 18,000 km represents 20% of the overall domestic electricity consumption of an average European household for one year. 

Nissan LEAF

Nissan will be dashing through the snow this Christmas with a bright festive Nissan LEAF powered by its own regenerated energy. 

To bring Christmas cheer while celebrating the power of regenerative energy creation, the special one-off vehicle sees the Nissan LEAF transformed into a Nissan (Christmas) TREE. Decked out in a spectacular light display, the Nissan TREE showcases the way the electric car regenerates power when braking or decelerating.

Two driving functions provide energy regeneration in the Nissan LEAF. The Nissan LEAF e-Pedal allows the driver to start, accelerate, decelerate and stop using only the accelerator pedal. The e-Pedal also helps the car to harvest energy via regenerative braking. This works by recycling the energy from the movement of the car during braking or deceleration, which then goes straight back to the batteries, where it is used to recharge them. Meanwhile, B mode is a driving function that regenerates energy under braking, with drivers using the traditional brake pedal as normal. 

Let it glow, let it glow, let it glow

Fitted with thousands of LEDs, shimmery baubles and a reindeer, the car is brighter than Rudolph’s nose. The sparkling display reminds sustainably minded drivers about the energy generation made possible through owning an electric vehicle. In fact, the average Nissan LEAF driver regenerates 744kWh* of clean energy if they drive 18,000 km. This energy saving is equivalent to 20% of the overall domestic electricity consumption of an average European household. 

Nissan LEAF drivers would generate enough energy to power up**: 

266 Christmas trees with 700 incandescent lights for a full hour of joy

297 ovens for one hour to cook your Christmas dinner

744 televisions for five hours to watch your favourite Christmas movies

10,783 houses with 1,000 LED lights for five hours

“Santa shouldn’t be the only one with a festive mode of transport. We wanted to make the Nissan LEAF more fun at this time of year whilst driving home a very important message,” said Helen Perry, Head of Electric Vehicles for Nissan Europe.

“We hope this custom-made vehicle inspires people about the endless benefits of regenerative energy. After nearly ten years since LEAF was first introduced in Europe, Nissan continues to be fully focused on providing consumers a more sustainable lifestyle through electric mobility.” Helen Perry added.
