Nissan 'unboxes' its affordable electric car at MWC
Unveiled and even unboxed as if it were some sort of mobile phone, the third-generation MY16 Nissan Leaf totes four cameras and a 7-inch color screen.

Nissan's latest mobile device was presented at the GSMA Mobile World Congress and it wants you to think it's getting into mobile devices.

Truth be told, it has been for a while, if you can classify a small, affordable electric car as a mobile device, that is.

Unveiled and even unboxed as if it were some sort of mobile phone, the third-generation MY16 Nissan Leaf totes four cameras and a 7-inch color screen.

Perhaps most importantly, the driving range is significantly increased to 155 miles per charge, up from 107mi on a 2016 model year Leaf with its older version of the 30 KWh battery.

That's still a fair way off a Tesla's midrange, 265mi Model S -- a car which would be the world's best-selling plug-in electric, were it not for the Leaf itself -- but then, with the compact Leaf costing half as much at retail, they're not exactly in the same ballpark to begin with.

What's your reaction?
