Nissan Leaf is the best sold electric car in the world. In order to improve the image of electric vehicles, the guys from Plug In Adventures team have decided to compete in the 2017 Mongol Rally with a modified Leaf. 

Called Leaf AT-EV (for All Terrain Electric Vehicle), the model comes with minor modifications compared to the standard model. It has Speedline SL2 Marmora wheels wrapped in Maxsport RB3 tires.
