Great for everyday average short trips(40 miles) one way. Plug into 110 outlet everynite like one does a cell phone. 5 years of use and never ran out of power. Can experience EV without big cost. Drive into future.

The best valued car on the market

I got tired of paying $250 a month for gas and just about $1000/month for maintenance and repairs on my gas vehicle and bought a used 2013 Leaf S. My one-way commute is just about 40 miles, I have charging stations at work. Vehicle was awesome (I still miss it), but I missed cruise control and the heating was inefficient. Anyway, local dealer had a great deal on a 2018 Leaf SV and I really needed a tax credit. It's the best vehicle I have owned in my lifetime. I smoke gas cars from the lights, it's maneuverable, it has an intelligent cruise (holds lane, distance to the car in front and speed), it saved itself when somebody cut in front of me and braked hard - vehicle stopped itself before I was able to react. Touchscreen is a bit overloaded, but I got used to it. It's more comfortable than my 2014 Explorer and surprisingly has more leg room in front and rear seats. Overall - a great car.

I was not convinced about buying the leaf at all. It looked weird and all the popular auto mags did not seem convinced. A friend convinced us to take a second look and we bought it as a second car ... that was four months ago. So far... - The lease + gas is approx the cost of my previous monthly gas bill. I am basically driving a new car for no extra cost. - - I have taken out my gas car about once a month ! I visited my Costco gas station after four months !!! Its comfortable, spacious and very well equipped. I would have preferred to buy the SV with the BOSE + cameras in hindsight. Bottom-line: if you commute < 60 miles / day, buy a leaf - you wont regret it.
Poor electric car, don't buy any Nissan product.

I was excited for my first electric car when I bought it last year. They say 110+ miles in sticker but don't expect more than 90 miles. If you drive highways/winter it would significantly low. The worst part for this car is the customer service and dealership. My from tire worn out in less than 10k, checked wheel alignment and its perfectly aligned but they won't even cover under any warranty, very poor quality stuff. I will certainly recommend buying electric car bit stay away from Nissan.

We almost bought a 2012 but waited and leased a 2013. We opted for the charger and rearview camera package and are glad we did. State (CA) and local air district rebates cut the already low three-year lease cost in half, making this an unbeatable bargain. We haven't driven our ICE car once in the 10 days since we got our Leaf S. This car does everything we need and is comfortable, easy to drive and costs less than 5 cents a mile for fuel. No problem keeping up with traffic, especially if we take it out of Eco mode. It also appears to have more range than the previous models. We only charge to 80% to save battery and can drive almost 70 miles in urban and suburban traffic.
