Rumored Nissan Leaf Nismo Could Look Pretty Much Like This

Taken into its second generation just last week, the all-new 2018 Nissan Leaf is trying out a virtual Nismo suit, and it’s not only for kicks.

A previous report said that such a version of the electric compact hatch could be on the table, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s coming though, as an official decision has yet to be taken.

However, if the good folks over at Nissan decide to put it into production, then it could look pretty much similar to what we see here, in the rendering penned by XTomi. Changes include not only the black and red accents that adorn its body, but also tweaked bumpers, side sills, and sportier wheels, in addition to the Nismo badge applied to the slightly modded grille.

The new generation Nissan Leaf will go on sale in Japan, next month, while the first units of the zero-emission car will arrive at dealers in Europe and North America early next year. Prices start at near  $30,000 in the United States, before government incentives.
