There is no need to worry about a plugging system because the car gets charged every time you park the vehicle. The battery charges from empty in a span of about 6 hours. The innovative LEAF system works on intuitive parking guidance without changing any system or software.

The car has a digital display providing adequate visibility of the speedometer and the eco indicator. There is a multi-function display, capacity level gauge, the remaining energy gauge, battery temperature gauge, and more.

The car works on an EV platform with a torsion beam located at the rear end of the vehicle and a multilink front suspension. With the nearly instantaneous torque and strong acceleration, the compact car that boasts of an eco-route feature and has extended warranties for their batteries.

Every model is equipped with a dual front, full length and front side airbags. The Nissan has an iPhone app that entitles the owner to check on the battery power of the vehicle, duration remaining for a full charge and the stations available to charge the vehicle.

rearview-mirror-backup-camera

The Nissan Rogue is equipped with the latest tech gadget – the Smart rearview mirror. The mirror is an extension of a traditional one, which transforms into a video screen. When you flip the dimmer switch to go to the night driving mode, you automatically switch to video camera mode. The feed is streamed from a camera that is tucked away in the boot. This gives you a clear view of what is behind you. By taking the next step into technological advancement, Nissan has made it easy for the driver to see beyond headrests, tall passengers and copious quantities of baggage.

With this new technology, you can also switch over to the regular rearview mode. That being said, not many would want to go old school with you have the LCD screen mode on which gives you the advantage of parallel parking and other issues associated with driving. One of the best advantages is that you do not have to turn your head while backing out of the driveway. For instance, you can actually see a fair amount of space without shifting your gaze elsewhere. Without being distracted for the driver as is with a regular mirror, your drive will be a breeze.

The price of the Smart rearview mirror will be factored into the pricing of a new car and is definitely a feature that you want on your vehicle. This LCD monitor in sum provides the driver with an unobstructed view of the rear. With this technology in place, you can check blind spots and any other conditions with clear imagery.

Nissan’s HR12DDR Engine

hr12de_1

The Nissan’s HR12DDR engine is designed to reduce the fuel consumption while still promising a smooth driving experience. The emission volume is decreased and the efficiency of the engine is enhanced so as to reduce fuel consumption as compared to the general gas engines.

The HR12DDR engine utilizes a supercharger for achieving the required power. In vehicles using a gasoline engine, it is obvious that more or less 20% of energy is utilized in gaining energy through burnt gas. But, the case is different when it comes to HR12DDR, as 20% of the energy produced is utilized efficiently by various systems of the car.

The engine increases fuel efficiency by reducing friction and pumping loss. It also enhances the heat efficiency, in turn reducing the consumption of fuel. Friction can be reduced by 10 % if the metal parts are coated with special friction-reducing agents. Also, reducing tension in the moving belts helps reduce the among of friction.

The 4 stroke gasoline engine follows a cycle to generate energy. The cycle starts with intake of fuel, which gets compressed and combusted and is finally given out through the exhaust. If the air suction becomes difficult then there are chances of fuel being wasted at the time of intake. So, Nissan’s HR12DDR engine uses the technique of the miller cycle which can delay the closure of intake in order to reduce wastage.

To improve the heat efficiency, the ratio of compression in the HR12DDR engine is increased to 12:1 by the help of supercharger. For more details on Nissan’s HR12DDR engine, please visit Coast Nissan.
