Driving down the highway, around mountains with scenic ocean views, through the desert that form majestic mountain bookcases on both sides or crossing a city bridge with sky scrapers in view with great music blaring creates a since of freedom unbridled.

In the cult classic, 1993 The Crush, starring the super sexy Alicia Silverstone, writer Nick Eliot (Cary Elwes) moves to a new city for a magazine job and rents a room in the house of Cliff (Kurtwood Smith) and Liv Forrester (Gwynyth Walsh), whose 14-year-old daughter, Adrian (Alicia Silverstone), instantly makes her attraction to Nick clear.

The opening scene with Nick driving across the bridge is a testament to energy and youth.

The only thing that would have made it better was if it was Adrian driving across the bridge with her hair flowing in the wind.

A car that women seem to have fallen in love with is the 2016 Nissan Leaf.

It’s fun and reliable driving where ever she may go, especially in an EV car.

An electric vehicle (EV), also referred to as an electric drive vehicle, uses one or more electric motors or traction motors for propulsion. An electric vehicle may be powered through a collector system by electricity from off-vehicle sources, or may be self-contained with a battery or generator to convert fuel to electricity.

The informative site commdiginews.com agrees. “With so many cool new EVs on today’s car market, the original pioneer production EV, Nissan Leaf, can get neglected. In fact, Nissan’s Leaf has led all EV sales worldwide by selling 170,000 cars since 2010. But the big news in EV tech is how Nissan’s engineers broke the 100-mile mark by getting an EPA-estimated miles per full charge on its 2016 Leaf. In addition, Nissan’s Leaf just charges faster than most other EVs. And while the Leaf’s wonky exterior may not be for everyone, the minimalist modern interior is comfortable, roomy, soothing and full of cool tech.”

Now a beautiful girl can drive for fun and save money too.

Please listen to this March 1, 2016 report from Nissan.

“Nissan’s “No Charge to Charge” promotion has officially arrived to the Sunshine State. Nissan will now provide new Nissan LEAF buyers two years of complimentary public charging with the purchase or lease of the all-electric car from participating LEAF-certified dealers in Orlando.

“Nissan LEAF is an ideal option for Orlando commuters — in addition to the $7,500 federal tax incentives and HOV lane access*, LEAF buyers can enjoy two years of free public charging,” said Andrew Speaker, director, Electric Vehicle (EV) Sales & Marketing, Nissan. “Significantly lower operating costs and a fun-to-drive nature make owning the all-electric LEAF a cost-effective and convenient choice for Orlando residents.”

Nissan now offers “No Charge to Charge” in 27 of the top markets for Nissan LEAF sales, including Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Denver, Fresno, Houston, Indianapolis, Los Angeles, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Monterey, New York, Nashville, Orlando, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, OR, Raleigh-Durham, Sacramento, Salt Lake City, San Diego, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Seattle, Washington D.C.

With more than 205,000 global sales and more than 90,000 in the U.S., Nissan LEAF is the world’s best-selling electric car. The 2016 Nissan LEAF has a starting price of $26,700** after the federal tax credit of $7,500 for the SV model and $29,290** for LEAF SL after the federal tax credit. Both the SV and SL models boast an EPA-rated range of 107 miles on a single charge. Nissan LEAF S models continue to be equipped with a 24 kWh battery with an EPA-estimated range of 84*** miles.

The public quick chargers can charge a LEAF from zero to 80 percent in less than 30 minutes.

Consumers can find chargers eligible for “No Charge to Charge” via the LEAF EZ-Charge app for iOS or Android or at ez-charge.com/stations.”
