Nissan has announced that the new Nissan Leaf will come with an e-Pedal, a revolutionary technology that transforms the way we drive.
With the flip of a switch, the technology turns the accelerator into an e-Pedal, allowing drivers to accelerate, decelerate and stop using just the e-Pedal. This technology is the world’s first one-pedal operation that allows drivers to bring the car to a complete stop even on hills, stay in position, and resume driving instantly.
Drivers can cover 90 percent of their driving needs with the e-Pedal. In heavy traffic and during city commutes, drivers will greatly reduce the need to shift from one pedal to the other, making the drive simpler.
The development of these technologies is part of Nissan Intelligent Mobility, the company’s blueprint for transforming how cars are driven, powered and integrated into society.
“By launching the Nissan Leaf, the world’s first mass-market electric vehicle, Nissan established itself as pioneer in the EV movement. Today the Nissan Leaf is the world’s best-selling electric vehicle, with more than 277,000 sold worldwide,” the company said.
