MEETS CAR

OF THE

FUTURE

Yesterday, Bethesda residents had a rare opportunity to test drive the car of the future: the all-electric Nissan Leaf. At Nissan's Montgomery Mall event, attendees learned the future could soon be theirs. Maryland is now one of the states where you can place an order for your very own Leaf!

Of course, with the Leaf's limited range, you need places to charge it. This morning at 10, Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley will dedicate a new electric vehicle charging station at 10401 Old Georgetown Road, right here in Bethesda.

The charger is solar-tracking. For electric car enthusiasts in Bethesda, it has been an exciting couple of days.
