The highly anticipated zero emissions Nissan LEAF price was announced today and for what the car offers it is fairly priced in its segment. Nissan LEAF will start as low as $25,280 when applicable $7,500 federal tax credits are applied. The starting MSRP (before the federal tax credit) is $32,780.
In addition, Nissan will offer a low lease price of $349 per month which includes the $7,500 federal tax credit. That does not include state taxes and all the rest of the local fees that go along with purchasing a new vehicle
The LEAF will be available in December of 2010

The editors at cars.com came up with a list of the 30 worst car names of all time (actually the last 30 years, but all time sounds better).
“There’s a lot of talk about the importance of first impressions,” says Patrick Olsen, Cars.com editor in chief. “Sometimes, as vehicle reviewers, our first impressions are formed when we hear the name of a vehicle. This list shows that those impressions aren’t always good.”
Drumroll Please:
10. The Entire Lincoln Line
9. Hyundai Equus (it’s not out yet, Hyundai change this while you still can)
8. Toyota Yaris
7. Kia Forte Koup
6. Subaru B9 Tribeca (Now just called Tribeca)
5. Volkswagon Touareg
4. Ford Probe (Ish like this is why American car companies are suffering)
3. Subaru B.R.A.T.
2. Isuzu VehiCROSS
1. Ford Aspire (Talk about an oxymoron)
