The fully-electric Nissan LEAF, which is set to go on sale in the U.S. next year, will be priced from $25,000 to $33,000. Word comes from Nissan North America product VP Larry Dominique.
“Competitive pricing is going to allow mass-market appeal, which is going to set Nissan apart,” said Dominique, commenting that the LEAF will be less expensive to own and operate than a gasoline car, even if gas cost just $1.10 a gallon.
Importantly, this price comes before any government tax incentives, which are certain to reduce the total cost by several thousand dollars.
Comparatively, the 2010 Toyota Prius starts at just $22,000.
