Happy with our Plus

Love the relatively long range (compared to our 24kWh LEAF), great acceleration from the Plus model with increased horsepower, as well as the quality interior, ride quality, and spacious trunk. I use the adaptive cruise a lot of the time on highway driving - very happy to have it. That was a big reason I passed on the Bolt EV while I was shopping. Now that the Bolt is having all its batteries recalled, I am even more content with my choice of picking the LEAF. I think this makes for a great EV if you are in a non-desert climate. Pacific NW, midwest or northeast parts of the country are all great candidates. Pass if you are in Texas, CA, AZ, NM, Florida, etc as the heat is not kind to these air-cooled packs. I expect here we will keep our 12 bars until 150k miles, as our 24 kWh lasted 60k miles with 12 bars, and this battery is about three times as large. Only 8k miles so far, so many years of worry free driving ahead!

What is Gas?

I enjoy driving my Leaf and not worrying what the gas prices are going to be. I just plug it in at night in my garage and it is ready to go the next day, The best that I have gotten on a charge is 188 miles. Warmer weather seems to get better mileage. I also like the acceleration. I have made many a believer in my electric car's acceleration coming off of a stop light. I would like to see a 4 wheel drive version with a larger battery. Maybe something to compete with a Tesla? After driving my Leaf for about two years I am still enjoying it. I see the have come out with a bigger battery with the new models. I think Nissan should let people with the smaller batteries trade them in for the larger ones and not charge them an arm and leg for it. They need to get the cost down on the new Leaf. You can buy other electrics cheaper and not much more for a Tesla.I can see Leaf sales going down. They still need to work on a 4 wheel drive.

This is my 2nd Leaf, Great improvement from the 2015. Very Pleased. However, It is a compact car, so it drives and feels like it.

This is a great hatchback EV, lots of space, quiet, easy to charge, the Plus model gives you more piece of mind as far as drive range
