A first-generation Nissan Leaf was converted into a stretch limo and fitted with an additional 24 kWh battery, essentially doubling its energy capacity. Testing was performed to determine how far the vehicle could drive after showing zero miles on the gauge. The car entered turtle mode after seven miles post-low battery warning, yet continued to travel. Ultimately, the test concluded with the limo achieving 18.9 miles with an energy efficiency of 4.1 miles per kWh, albeit at slow speeds.
After hitting zero miles, the dual-battery Nissan Leaf limo continued to drive for an impressive total of 18.9 miles before coming to a stop, demonstrating a significant range beyond indications.
The experiment aimed to test the real-world capability of a modified Nissan Leaf limo with dual 24 kWh batteries, revealing its performance under various conditions.
