With any new Nissan Leaf purchase at Cardinale Nissan in Monterey, you gain access to these stations thanks to the No Charge To Charge Program, which makes driving an electric car easier and more fun.

Initial releases of the Nissan Leaf could only go for around 100 miles without needed more power, but the latest 2018 model is estimated to easily travel over 200 miles. While this is ample enough for your workday, longer road trips were a larger concern until the introduction and development of these charging stations that you can find scatter across the United States.

No Charge To Charge

All new Nissan Leaf owners will automatically receive a two year pass into the No Charge To Charge Program. This allows you to make use of any Nissan charging station for free, and benefit from the new DC chargers. These can bring a Leaf from zero to full charge within half an hour, perfect for a refill during lunchtime or during work.

Be on the lookout for the 2018 Nissan Leaf which will be heading to Monterey car dealerships in early September. If you are looking for the best deal on new and used cars in Monterey, then Cardinale Nissan is the place to be.

By using the various cameras, sensors and sonar systems on the car, it will automatically pull your car into any parking spot that is a suitable size.

A Quick Preview Of The All New 2018 Nissan Leaf

Each summer, Monterey car dealerships hold sales in order to make room for the 2018 lineups that will be arriving shortly. Thanks to the success of the 2017 Nissan Leaf and the rumors of self-driving capabilities, the 2018 Nissan Leaf is highly anticipated among car reviewers. Nissan has already released a teaser featuring limited shots of the new design, but recently the test version of the car was photographed during a live test drive. Here are a few things to know about the new Leaf before it arrives at Cardinale Nissan.

Improved Efficiency

While cars like the Leaf don’t directly require gas, they can only travel for a certain range before needing to be recharged. The 2018 Leaf will have a massively improved range, almost doubling the effective range to over 200 miles. Along with the added convenience, this makes longer journeys more manageable. To also aid with recharging, Nissan has constructed thousands of stations around the country which new Leaf owners can use for free for two years as part of the No Charge To Charge program.

Expanded Design

Thanks to the power and efficiency improvements, Nissan was also able to make the cabin and trunk space larger. The car is now similar in size and shape to a sedan, and the overall design is bolder, sharper and better looking. Not only will you save money driving the #Leaf, you can also look good doing it.

Capture Any Off-Road Adventure With Nissan’s Latest Duo – 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

People love to share what is happening to them nowadays more than ever. You don’t need a sophisticated camera to capture stunning photos or videos anymore, and being able to look back on and share our experiences with others is always a treat. Taking a selfie is easy, but capturing the off-road capabilities and outdoor escapades in a car is difficult with a standard camera. Nissan wants people to be able to easily capture their automotive adventures, and has combined one of their advanced crossovers with the versatility and power of a remote-control drone. To see how you can get your hands on this incredible package, head over to a Monterey auto dealer like Cardinale Nissan.

Europe has already had access to the #drone and car combination, and it will soon become available at Monterey car dealerships. The Nissan Pathfinder was specifically chosen for this package, thanks to its design that is fit to handle the atypical terrain found on trails. The crossover design allows the car to hold many passengers, heavy amounts of cargo or a good mix of both. The 284-horsepower engine is strong enough to accelerate the car over any bumps or larger rocks, and the tires are designed and reinforced to avoid puncture. The included NissanConnect package also features satellite navigation so you will never get lost.

The biggest benefit of the Pathfinder’s infotainment system is its connection to the Parrot Bebop 2 drone that is included. The display can show exactly what the drone’s camera is displaying, so you can make sure your video or pictures are amazing. Using the “follow me” GPS command, the drone can stay above the car as it moves, recording the story of your outdoor travels.

Monterey county and California in general are full of beautiful locations to explore in the Nissan Pathfinder. Come down to Cardinale Nissan today and let us show you a better car buying experience, or you can visit us online at www.cardinalenissan.com.

Visit Homes Of Famous Authors Around Monterey – Steinbeck House

Steinbeck House

Monterey county is home to many historic locations and residences, many of which have been called “home” by famous people. The beautiful scenery of the bountiful valley has inspired several writers, who have described everything from the hard-working locals to the glistening sea. At Cardinale Nissan, we are proud to be a part of this community that has fostered such incredible works of art. Here are some of our favorite historic homes in Monterey, which you can easily get to in a new or used Nissan Altima.

Cannery Row

John Steinbeck is one of America’s best known authors, and has received critical acclaim for his fictional stories of life in the West. He was born about 30 miles from #CanneryRow, and spent most of his life in Pacific Grove. Here he gathered writing material for his novels by observing the fish packing plant and the surrounding bordellos and flophouses, and immortalized this street in his fittingly named book, Cannery Row. He also made friends with Ed Ricketts, a marine biologist at the Biological Laboratory and primary inspiration for the character “Doc.” Cannery Row largely consists of museums today, and you can learn more about the historical plant and its operations on a guided tour.

Stevenson House

The Stevenson House was named for legendary author Robert Louis Stevenson, who stayed in this shelter in 1878. This two-story home acted as a refuge for families, artists and workers back in the Mexican era, and it was here that Stevenson met his future wife. During his stay, he also penned one of his early works, Old Pacific Capital, and nowadays the Robert Louis Stevenson Club of Monterey keeps this old home open for tours.

There are plenty of Monterey car dealerships, but the only place to find exceptional deals on both new and used Nissan models is Cardinale Nissan. Our unbeatable prices and focus on customer satisfaction means buying a car from us is easy, so visit us in store or online at www.cardinalenissan.com.

Nissan Reveals Latest Development In Its Car Sharing Program

From getting a taxi to driving along in your own Nissan Altima from Cardinale Nissan, there are several great ways to get around the city. One of the newer developments is car sharing, like ZipCar, but none of these services provide easy access to clean transportation. To solve this problem, Nissan has developed their own car sharing platform that will debut in Japan and rapidly expand to other continents. To go along with this service, Nissan has also designed a small and completely electric car which has been nicknamed “Twizy”.

Monterey car dealerships like Cardinale Nissan provide great cars for people who need the mobility, but for those who don’t travel too far for work or vacation it can be simpler to use a car sharing service. Around most major cities, Nissan will be placing the Twizy in major travel hubs, where people can rent and return cars to. Since the Twizy is electric, the hubs will also act as charging centers so drivers never have to be worried about running out of juice.

Nissan and its partner Renault have been developing the #Twizy for a couple of years, and it is the perfect choice for a new car sharing program. Currently they only sit up to two people, but Nissan will likely extend the program in the future to include the Nissan Leaf, which can sit four to five. The Twizy can reach a top speed of around 50 miles per hour and has a total range of around 60 miles, which is ideal for short trips. The biggest benefit however is the electric design, which has no emissions and is free of pollutants.

While car sharing programs have their benefits, for families or people who drive more often a new or used car from Cardinale Nissan is best choice for getting around the Monterey area. Be sure to check out our latest deals online at www.cardinalenissan.com for stop by to talk with our friendly sales team.

Nissan Unveils The First Electric Sports Car Fit For The Track

 

It’s not often that you can find both smart and sporty in a car, especially if you are looking for something fuel efficient. Many of the hybrids or electric cars on the market right now don’t have the engine power needed to race down an open road, while sport cars generally feature a low fuel efficiency. Nissan has been hard at work unifying these two concepts and they recently unveiled a new prototype EV sports car, the Blade Glider, which you can find in the near future at Cardinale Nissan.

The first look at this new racer came in a viral video which featured famous actress Margot Robbie piloting the twists and turns of the Monaco streets. In the video, she shows off the car’s pinpoint maneuverability and speed by driving the car around an iconic part of the racing world: the Fairmont Hairpin. The car has a never before seen the powertrain electric engine which was built by UK-based Williams Advanced Engineering. In under five seconds this new masterpiece can easily accelerate the car to 60 miles per hour with a maximum speed of 115 mph. It is capable of this amazing feat thanks to two 130 kW electric motors for each wheel that utilizes the latest EV technology to the fullest.

 

Another significant feature that sets the #BladeGlider apart from the competition is its seat configuration, with one driver’s seat in the “nose” of the car and two in back. This creates a more immersive driving experience that is similar to a pilot in a cockpit. The Blade Glider has been in development for over 4 years, tracing its origins to a prototype made in early 2013. Using the latest electric motor innovations and this design, the Blade Glider will be the first car of its type.

 

At Cardinale Nissan, you can find the best deals on all new and certified pre-owned Nissan models—and one day you’ll find the Blade Glider when it hits Monterey car dealerships. We also offer top of the line Nissan car service, so call or book an appointment online at www.cardinalenissan.com.
