Nissan's all-new Leaf has been officially unveiled, with the Japanese carmaker presenting a bigger, stronger and more powerful EV.

The covers came off the second-generation model at an event in Tokyo this week, revealing the new-look hatch and its specifications.

The new model is upgraded in every way, with a more powerful electric motor that also produces more torque with a battery pack that offers significantly longer range than the model it replaces. It also features a sleeker look, first previewed by the IDS Concept from the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show.

Nissan claims the new Leaf can travel up to 400km on a single charge - a significant jump from the 170km range in the first generation. That is in large part thanks to a new 40kWh lithium-ion battery, replacing a 24kWh battery in the old model.
