Pleasure Meets Reason
Nissan has collected for the Electric Car Leaf much credit. And rightly so. Finally, the Japanese five-seater, the first family-friendly electricity generation from large-scale production that can be quite regularly buy from the dealer. Despite all the praise for the clean and bold implementation - for pleasure and passion, it has not passed. For the performance figures are at best average, and the design is not dictated by the quest for beauty, but the wind tunnel.
That they can do it differently, the Japanese show now at the Geneva Motor Show. There they discover the clean sportsmanship and pull the cloth from the razor-sharp study Esflow. Drawn as the next-generation sports car 370Z offers the two-seater all that may lack the Leaf Moreover, with a long hood, pointed snout and flared fenders, he arouses desire, and with two sports leather seats and gold velvet interior, he promises that nobility, the Leaf with the soft look at the prices had cheap plastic. He also ennobles the driver to the pilot, because you will enjoy one with the machine, and thanks to the wraparound windshield views as by the sight of a protective helmet.
The performance deliver what promises to the design. Although Nissan is silent on the exact dates pending. But because the Esflow because of an aluminum chassis should be relatively easy and work on the rear axle, two electric motors, it is to create the sprint to 100 kph in less than five seconds. For quick sprint ability is matched by an extremely agile handling. Finally, the battery packs distributed in the coach not only the weight is well balanced. In addition, each electric motor is controlled separately, so the torque can be distributed quite variable. The trip by Esflow is indeed fast, but not necessarily a short pleasure: After all, Nissan promises for the lithium-ion battery has a range of 240 kilometers.
Officially Esflow is only one study, with a little pleasure in the world of reason to bring the Japanese do. But so entirely without ulterior motive has not designed the Nissan sports car. Chief strategist Francois Bancon has electric models announced further: "The Leaf is just the beginning," he says, and is adjacent to 2014 or an electric delivery van, a sporty and luxurious small car for the noble sister brand, Infiniti, and a fourth vehicle in view, the similar unconventional fails as the Nissan Juke. It's quite possible that the Esflow already a first indication there. (tg)
