One of the most significant reasons that makes clients think twice before purchasing an electric vehicle is the fact that it usually takes a long time to recharge it.

Because nowadays time is money, Nissan, the company which manufactures all green LEAF vehicles, came up with an effective solution to this issue.

The company introduced on the market the plan for an innovative battery able to provide energy to eco-friendly cars in just 10 minutes, as fast as you would reload your tank at the closest gas station, without having to wait in line.

The only bump in the road for Nissan is that it might take about a decade to develop and implement this innovative technology to the present infrastructure in order to be used on a large commercial scale.

So far, Nissan managed to spread its LEAF products in 22 states. A month ago, the enterprise added 6 more states to the list of its clients: New York, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Colorado, New Jersey and Connecticut.

Nowadays, the first obstacle which companies that produce electric vehicles have to face is the fact that recharging their green cars' battery is a quite time-consuming operation. It takes an average 8 hours.

Major players on the market of hybrid cars think that their numbers will raise considerably once they possess the know-how to change the situation.

In their opinion, the super fast charger, able to get any electric powered car back on the road in just 10 minutes, would represent a great source of profit.

The improvements have no negative effects upon voltage or storage capacity. The plan seems like a great idea, and its implementation appears to be just a matter of time.
