A great urban vehicle
We purchased our Leaf in March 2023, when there was a chip shortage affecting cars. As a result, we paid full list price. Fortunately, on our purchase date, it qualified for both a federal tax credit ($7,500) and a State of California credit, so the effective cost to us was little more than $17K. The Leaf is a lot of fun to drive, the ePedal is great, and it is highly maneuvrable and easy to park (and access.) So it has some really strong points with respect to practicality. The biggest negative for our base-trim Leaf S is the driving range: somewhere around 150 miles (depending on speed and weather.) If you are a 2-car family with jobs relatively nearby, the Leaf is a great choice. My wife and I are now retired and have gone down to a single car. We have done modest roadtrips in the Leaf but it is a pain to recharge on the road (even in Southern California), and you will likely need to recharge it at least once on a roadtrip. (We almost always charge it at home on a normal 110 volt outlet.) If we get another EV, we will likely seek greater mileage, now that we have lived with a lesser range and endured some range anxiety as a result. (The infrastructure will get better, but it still has a ways to go.) Beyond that issue, we greatly enjoy driving the Leaf.

Insufficient space for the middle rear passenger
I had evaluated quite a number of EV and I like to Nissan Leaf 2023. I am considering to buy one. But only one thing makes me hesitated. That is the insufficient space for the middle rear passenger's feet. It will be uncomfortable for the middle passenger to put his/her legs on the left and right sides of a "knot" in the middle of the rear floor !
I love it so far.
It's quiet. I'm getting better mileage than I thought I would. The rebates are excellent.
