Last Friday Nissan announced its all-electric Leaf will be the first of more Nissan EVs to come down under and will sell for a not-insubstantial – and unsubsidized – $51,500 AUD ($52,525 USD).
The Leaf was launched in the U.S. in the lower-mid $30,000 range before applicable subsidies in December 2010, and Nissan sold a bit less than 10,000 in calendar year 2011. This fiscal year, with domestic production due to come online in December, the company says it will sell 20,000 in North America, as it mentions also there’s a market for its 13 Leaf-selling dealers in Australia for the premium priced EV.
