This electric car has become the first glow-in-the-dark vehicle to be driven across the world’s first glow-in-the-dark motorway. See SWNS story SWGLOW; The unique Nissan Leaf has a special coating which soaks up UV lighting during the day so it glows for up to ten hours when it’s dark. Nissan, which builds the Leaf in Sunderland, took the car to Holland for a spin on the Smart Highway. The 600-metre stretch of road, in Oss, was conceived by designer Daan Roosegaarde to help guide drivers in the dark, while saving energy that might otherwise be used in street lighting.
