Nissan LEAF Sales Tops 30,000 in 2014, Best Year Ever for Plug-In Vehicle

Nissan, the world leader in electric vehicle sales, established a new sales record with 30,200 LEAF vehicles sold in 2014, which is the first time any plug-in has sold more than 30,000 units in a single year.

“Now in its fifth model year, Nissan LEAF is more popular than ever and continues to bring new buyers to Nissan,” said Brendan Jones, director, Nissan Electric Vehicle Sales and Infrastructure.

Last month, Nissan sold 3,102 all-electric LEAFs, up 22.7 percent from the prior year and a December record.

With seating for up to five passengers, the all-electric Nissan LEAF boasts an EPA-estimated* driving range of 84 miles on a fully-charged battery and MPGe ratings of 126 city, 101 highway and 114 combined.

The starting price of a Nissan LEAF is approximately $22,000 after the available maximum $7,500 federal tax credit.
