Recently, Nissan turned heads by creating the first glow-in-the-dark vehicle. An innovative finish was applied to the LEAF that allows it to absorb UV energy and other visible radiation throughout the day, causing it to glow for eight to 10 hours.
But making a vehicle glow isn’t enough for Nissan. They wanted to accomplish more, something bigger, like Guinness World Record bigger, and that’s just what they did. Using 60 liters of luminous acrylics paint, a giant PVC-coated canvas and the wheels of the LEAF as paint brushes, artists Ian Cook, of Popbangcolour, was able to set the Guinness World Record for the Largest Glow-in-the-Dark painting.
The LEAF self-portrait took over 61 hours to complete and was overseen by an official Guinness World Records adjudicator Fortuna Burke and awarded the Guinness World Records title on March 20, 2015.
To learn more about the efficient Nissan LEAF come into Tynan’s Nissan of Fort Collins and we will be happy to get you set up with a test drive.
