Charging the Car #GoUltraLow @NissanLEAFUK @ecotri

Today we took delivery of a Nissan LEAF which will be staying with us for the next 6 weeks for us to test out as part of the GoUltraLow campaign. We had a very detailed handover from the lovely James from Nissan, and as part of that handover we took a trip to our nearest motorway charging station to see how we would charge the car when "out and about". We have a charging point at home for day to day use, but being able to charge at motorway service stations means we can travel further in the car. Here's the LEAF hooked up to a rapid charging unit which will take it from empty to 80% charged in just 30 minutes!

I'll be writing more about our experiences with the Nissan LEAF on my blog.
