Venucia e30 will be launched on the China car market in September
The Venucia e30 EV will be launched on the China car market in September and that is much earlier than previously expected. Venucia is a sub-brand of the Dongfeng-Nissan joint venture, and the Venucia e30 is based on the Nissan Leaf. The e30 debuted as the ‘Venucia E-Concept’ on the 2012 Beijing Auto Show and re-appeared as the Venucia e30 on the Shanghai Auto Show in April last year.
The e30 comes with a redesigned front and grille but is otherwise exactly a Leaf. Power train is the same as well: and electric motor with 110hp and 280nm. Top speed is 144km/h and range is currently set at 180 kilometer, whereas the latest Leaf had a range of 200 kilometer. Price will start around 400.000 yuan but green-car subsidies of central and local governments can bring that down to about 355.000 yuan.
