Unexpected sounds

Great car with peppy acceleration but just know it has mandatory sounds. Both forward and reverse “warning” sounds cannot be turned off. Otherwise a very nice car. After driving the Leaf for 1 year - a fun car to drive, peppy acceleration, responsive steering, and solid road feel. However, I HATE the loud beeping sound while reversing. Extremely annoying sound and too loud!

Don’t expect much and it will not disappoint you. Pro: Range is somewhat ok, especially if you have the PLUS model. The higher trim will get you more goodies and there’s enough room for both front and back passengers, as well as a decent size trunk similar to a small suv. Typical EV pros: torquey, quiet, low maintenance, etc. Con: Awfully slow and outdated infotainment system that gives errors quite often, it takes forever to get anything done, if you could navigate to the correct menu at all. Handling is awful, brake feel is… wait, there isn’t any brake feel, that thing is ridiculous. One pedal drive isn’t for everyone, it does more harm than good in my opinion. The build feels cheap(well it is a cheap car tho), quality is lacking that you will find quite some imperfections through out the body and trims. Bottom line, it is something get you from point A to point B, don’t expect anything else.

Shocking cost for replacement parts

The LEAF is a pretty good car to drive. It performs well. The range is a bit low, but improving. But the cost for replacement parts is truly shocking. Recently my headlight went out, and the dealer said it would cost $3500 for a new healight assembly! (I got one on E-bay for $400). Same for a new charge cable. Dealer quoted me $3000; got one on Amazon for $400, same quality. This is not just my dealer; I checked, and this is what Nissan dealers charge in Canada. Seems like this is how they are making their money on their EVs - charging extorionary prices for replacement costs once they 'have you'. Because of that, I will never buy a Nissan EV again.

Nissan has been at it for over 11 years and have perfected the vehicle. We have owned a 2013 and now this 2020. Amazing cars. Friends that own Chevy Bolt, Tesla 3, and Ford Mach-E are all having repairs and recalls. The LEAF is completely trouble-free. One of the lowest-risk to own EV's The LEAF, however, has a major weakness. The Traction Battery is not cooled so when you quick-charge the Car, the Battery gets hot reducing its life. The other issue is for quick-charging, the charge port is Chademo which is obsolete. Our 2020 LEAF lost over 8% of the Battery capacity in just 10,400 miles. This is the reason we sold the Car.

Great car. Great deal!

A lightly used Leaf is the best deal in town. Negotiate with the dealer and then with the Inflation Reduction Act, if you make under $150,000, you can take another $4,000 off the top of the price. Really hard to beat!
