Word on the street is the next-generation Nissan Leaf will have a double driving range than the current model, which is obviously great news. But what if the upcoming Leaf also solved another problem of the first generation vehicle – the uninspiring design?

Photoshop manipulator Theophilus Chin imagined what the next-generation Leaf would look like if it used design cues from two of Nissan’s latest models, the Murano and the Pulsar.

Combining the Pulsar’s footprint with Murano details such as the headlights, taillights and floating C-pillar led to an interesting result, definitely better looking than the current Leaf.

Obviously, there are some Leaf-specific details like the front lid hiding the recharging socket and the two-tone aero-style alloy wheels. What do you think?
