The Nissan Leaf, Driven

Great things are happening in the automotive world. Cars are becoming more sophisticated each year with more technology being crammed into the car. To put this into perspective, look at the smart phones that are on the market today. Now, take a look at the laptops that were being sold around five to seven years ago. Pretty comparable performance wouldn’t you say? Ask any automotive enthusiast today and I doubt they would have thought 10 years ago that today’s cars and trucks would be as technologically dependent as they are now. Servos, wires, and micro processors galore, gone are the simple days of carburetors and mechanical throttle linkages. Now we move to the next revolution: the electric car.
