Just in response to funkmiester, he raises some interesting questions. Did you know that the ancestor of the Nissan Leaf was the Tama Senior EMS. It was first produced in 1949 and had a range of 200km, running on 40 2v batteries. That was just shy of 70 years ago. Imagine what could have been achieved by now if they had continued development of it.
