As the demand for fuel efficient cars in the U.S. rises, Nissan finally gets on board to “Reuse & Recycle” it’s greenest car, the “all-electric” LEAF, with it’s Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles program.  As of now, Nissan backs the quality and performance with an existing 8-year/100k mile battery warranty and extend the EV and powertrain warranty to 7 years or 100k miles.   Nissan is priding itself in the fact that they are giving confidence to the vehicle’s second owner as if they were the first.  

Benefits for the Nissan Certified Pre-Owned Program include:

• Comprehensive quality assurance vehicle inspection
• CARFAX® Vehicle History Report with 90-day CARFAX Buyback Guarantee ®
• 24-hour emergency roadside assistance
• A no-cost, three-month subscription to Sirius-XM Satellite Radio
• Car rental reimbursement
• Trip interruption coverage

Nissan holds it’s LEAF model to the highest standards when qualifying for their Certified Pre-Owned Program.  Each car must have less than 60,000 miles, be less than 5 years from original in-service date, have a clear CARFAX report, pass a 167 point quality inspection, and have a minimum of 9 bars of battery capacity out of 12.  

Nissan will also offer special financing rates to those interested in owning a certified pre-owned Leaf.
