A car that glows in night

Nissan is first manufacturer apply paint that uses UV energy absorbed during daylight to glow at night
The manufacturer worked with inventor, Hamish Scott, creator of STARPATH, which is a spray-applied coating that absorbs UV energy during the day so that it glows for between eight and 10 hours when the sun goes down.
The paint contains a very rare natural earth product called Strontium Aluminate, which is solid, odorless and chemically and biologically inert.
Nissan has broken the Guinness World Records title for the Largest Glow-in-the-Dark Painting by using the glow-in-the-dark Nissan LEAF to paint a 207.68m2 self-portrait of the 100-percent electric car.
Under the hood, Nissan leaf is powered with 80 kW AC synchronous electric motor
It comes with Nissan Intelligent Key® with Push Button Start, Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System, Heated front & rear seats and rearv iew Monitor
Range: 126/101 city/hwy MPGe
With seating for up to five passengers, the all-electric Nissan LEAF boasts an EPA-estimated* driving range of 84 miles on a fully-charged battery and MPGe ratings of 126 city, 101 highway and 114 combined.
Various third-party companies have applied non-organic glow-in-the-dark paint to vehicles before, but Nissan is the first car maker to directly apply such technology. Nissan's unique paint, if made commercially available, would last for 25 years.
The starting price of a Nissan LEAF is about $22,000 after the available maximum $7,500 federal tax credit.
