Not only will the Nissan LEA be 100% electric and emissions-free, its battery will also be made 100% right here in America. after a groundbreaking ceremony in Smyrna, Tennessee, the first domestic battery plant for the Nissan LEAF™ is scheduled for completion in 2012 and is estimated to provide some 1,300 jobs.

Plant capacity is 200,000 batteries/yr
