Leaf electric in Wuhan road tests

Almost a year after the debut of its Leaf electric car, Nissan Motor Corp recently put 15 of the vehicles on the road for testing in the central China city of Wuhan.

Shen Li, director at the public relations department for Nissan's China operations, said the Leaf will undergo three years of tests in Wuhan to collect statistics for later use in development of the company's electric cars.
