June 11, one of the most prestigious events in motorsports will be taking place: the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Most enthusiasts will surely be watching the legendary battle between the two LMP1 diesels: the Audi R18 TDI and the Peugeot R08 but there will be a special guest making its debut. Nissan will be running the fully electric LEAF NISMO RC for demonstration runs at the 79th running of Le Mans.
The RC is a purpose-built version of the LEAF road car and is also the first zero emissions racing spec production vehicle. There will be two demo runs, one before the start of the race and one during.
