Be the first to see the Nissan LEAF in person. An invitation was sent out a few weeks ago to see the Nissan LEAF Zero Emission Tour in Southern California in November. The tour will begin in Southern California on November 13, 2009 and end in New York City on February 14, 2010. In case if you already missed the Southern California invitation, you can sign up here. If you sign up for the RSVP, you will get a bag of goodies at the show.
The Nissan LEAF is the first 100% electric, zero emission, green car that will be produced by Nissan, and will be available in the near end of 2010. Just in case if you are interested in the specs of this green car, here they are:
