Nissan teases next-gen Leaf: 'Coming soon'
The original Nissan Leaf was instrumental in kicking off the burgeoning EV popularity worldwide.

Both time and competitors have quickly caught up and surpassed the Leaf. Cars like the Chevrolet Bolt EV and upcoming Tesla Model 3 make the Leaf and its 107-mile range seem paltry by comparison. The good news is that an all-new Leaf with a possible 200-plus mile range is on the way, with Nissan revealing a single teaser image of the new car.

Thanks to some spy shots, we have a basic idea of how the new car will look. This new teaser shows the car's new slim LED headlights. The rest of the Leaf pulls styling from both the Nissan Maxima and Murano. There are no other details as of yet, but expect the Leaf's range to be close to that of the 238-mile Chevrolet Bolt. The car will also pack Nissan's ProPILOT autonomous tech.

Look for Nissan to roll out more details over the course of the summer ahead of the official reveal later this year.
