The most popular electric vehicle in the world, the current generation Nissan Leaf is set to reach the European market with a range of important improvements. It`s more like a midlife cycle that offers its clients improved range and enhanced features. To showcase this, Nissan has released a short film revealing the car from a block of ice in breathtaking Norefjell, Norway. 

The electric vehicle now delivers up to 155 miles of driving range on a single charge, 25 percent further than before, and comes with the latest evolution of the NissanConnect EV infotainment system on Acenta and Tekna trims. This includes improvements to the remote defrost feature, superior functionality and greater connectivity.

Nissan also offers a specially engineered Nordic Pack which includes a battery heater to counter the effects of the extreme low temperatures.



The film begins with a silhouette of the LEAF cocooned in ice, set against the breath-taking Scandes Mountains. At 65mm thick, the ice proceeds to melt away, gradually revealing the new Nissan Leaf.

The Nissan LEAF was frozen into its icy blanket by Norwegian ice specialist, MR. ICEMAN AS. Mr Jack Stensland, CEO, said: “I have never frozen an electric car before, but it sounded like an interesting challenge, and I think the end result is stunning.”


The New Nissan Leaf 30kWh goes 25 percent further than the previous model, thanks to Nissan’s innovative 30kWh battery technology, beating all of its competitors within the segment.
