A teaser graphic has gone up on the local Nissan website, with a ‘Can you feel electricity in the air?” tagline being the only thing mentioned, and also that whatever is due to happen is just but five days away.
Chances are it’s the nod to the arrival of the electrically-powered Nissan LEAF, one of the models slated for introduction here this year. Don’t get too excited though, even if this is the case, because the EV isn’t going to be commercially available just yet, as indicated by an earlier report on its planned arrival.
In it, Edaran Tan Chong Motor stated that it will be running a pilot program for the LEAF, in which the vehicle will be used to promote public awareness and be involved in experimental drives with Government bodies, the media as well public audiences. So, you might get to sit in one, but you can’t take it home just yet.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
malaysia’s registered LEAF with WWJ7xxxx plate is charging at TC HQ daily since last week, using a special volt transformer.
fyi, there are 10uts imported by tc.
yea…few months back when i passed by segambut factory i saw few trailers loaded full of Leafs..its ad here months back
Here come the revolutionary vehicle!!! :D
I don’t care about the Leaf. When is the Juke coming?!!
Saw one Juke in Nissan Taman Melati last week, dunno if it was a show unit though.
Must say it look radical in the metal
Indonesia already have this Juke. Comes with 1.5 CVT engine for about IDR 243.8 Million which translates to RM82k..

@eng : How did you know there’s 10 units here in Malaysia?
@Jiun: Not relevant, please read the title
im a staff here..lol
Sorry lah Nissan Leaf will cost arm and leg lah

Price plus shipping and marine insurance: USD$56,500 + USD$900 + USD$120 = USD$57,520.00
USD$57,520.00 = RM173,279.00 ???
Nahhh…must add hidden duties too RM15K so total price RM188,279.00…
Bravo NAP let others have high price hybrid car except for Protongkat have time to re-adjust its hybrid soon…Bravo NAP bravo…
i would say: yes, it costs around there
OMG! So expensive. I was thinking to switch to electric for my daily commute since public charging station is not common in Malacca yet. But, with the price at RM180K+, then no way a normal salary man can afford that.
Are they plan to sell many, or just for rich Malaysian? But Malaysia plans to cut 40% of CO2 emission by 2020 (compared to 2005), and how are we going to do that? If we don’t electrify our cars, I don’t think we can achieve that target at all.

Last 2 days ago I saw the LEAF at LDP. Opposite my road. But I can see it using normal number plate. Taught it was the pilot program. It would be nice if LEAF available at here too.

How to charge? =)
Use electricity lah. It can be charge by using public charging station or just plug-in into any 3-pin plug at home or office.
but i saw the car being charged at TC showroom using the industrial plug, so how to charge at home or office?
Up to date la deii..u go to putrajaya and see those charging stations. Go to putrajaya corp, ministry of finance…go to MITI jalan duta KL when u r paying your income tax.
Sweet.
heavy maintenance cable/plug to an independent power point.
