Nissan Leaf Cuts Energy Use in Half With New Bose Soundsystem

Nissan Leaf's new Bose stereo systemThe Nissan Leaf doesn't exactly rank up there with Snoop Dogg's '64 Impala when it comes to thumping sound systems, but at least the Japanese automaker is bringing the all-electric's stereo in line with the car's energy efficient approach.

 

The Japanese automaker worked with Bose to develop a system that cuts energy use in half while increasing sound quality. The Bose Energy Efficient Series, which will be available on the SV and SL versions of the Leaf, uses lighter speakers and amplifiers and adds a 4.5-inch bass woofer – excuse us, a "4.5-inch Nd® Richbass® woofer" – in the rear cargo area. Go ahead and blast Ain't No Fun through that.

 

On top of the sound system updates, Nissan is looking to spur sales of the 2013 model-year Leaf by dropping the car's base price by $6,400 to $28,800, making it the country's cheapest five-seat electric vehicle. The SV and SL's prices were cut by $3,380 and $2,410, respectively. Last month, Leaf sales fell 3.8 percent from a year earlier to 650 units.

Nissan Close to Selling Out of the 2012 Nissan Leaf!


Nissan has "almost" sold all of its model-year 2012 Leafs in the US on a jump in demand for the all-electric model during the latter part of the year, Nissan spokesman Travis Parman told AutoblogGreen.

The Japanese automaker had less than 900 Leafs on hand at the beginning of the year and will have sold most of those in January. Last month, Nissan started work on the 2013 model-year Leaf at its Tennessee plant.

While 2012's Leaf sales lagged those of 2011 for much of last year, demand picked up substantially towards the end of the year. Through the first nine months of the year, Leaf sales were down 28 percent from a year earlier, but Nissan finished 2012 with sales of 9,819 Leafs, up 1.5 percent from 2011. January 2013 sales figures should be released Friday.

Earlier this month, Nissan said it was dropping the price of its 2013 Leaf by $6,400 to a base of $28,800. Nissan's first US-produced Leafs will roll off the company's Tennessee assembly line next month.
