Nissan hinted a higher performance variant of the Nissan LEAF might be coming next year when they launched the 2018 model. Now, they've shown us an image of the LEAF Nismo concept they're bringing to the Tokyo Motor Show. Looks pretty snazzy. Hopefully we'll get some details when it makes its public debut. I'm curious, though. Would you be willing to pay a little extra for this, or is this too much like lipstick on a pig? (Not to say the new Leaf is a pig in any way. Just a figure of speech.)
I'm not so concerned with how fast it accelerates but do want that larger 60kWh battery. In fact, I'd be happy with my current Leaf with a 60kWh battery.
