Worth it

So I got the leaf in November, I drive 50 miles a day round trip, i charge at work, i get to use the carpool lane solo, so I save 15 minutes in my commute each way and I just received my rebate check. At first u feel a bit paranoid about keeping up the charge, but then you get use to it. The car has some balls too when you gun it. Overall it's worth it, not the prettiest car but it gets me from point a to point b. I don't feel like a sucker for paying these high gas prices. Update Sept 2022 still worth it.

I am very satisfied with my Leaf. Its smooth, quiet, quick, powerful, and just plain fun to drive. My after hours charging rate at .0487 cents/ kWh will cost me very little to charge it.

Great City Car. Range anxiety for longer trips

Nissan LEAFS are extremely reliable. We've had a 2013 and now a 2020. They have one flaw, a major flaw at that. The Traction Battery is not heated or cooled. Almost every other EV has great Battery management. We don't abuse the Battery and in just 9800 careful miles, LeafSpy shows we have lost over 6% of the original Battery capacity. The fit and finish is very good but lots of hard plastics used inside. The material used for the Cloth Seats and armrests on Door Panels doesn't wear well. The Dealer told us it's made from recycled Pop Bottles. True/false? We don't fully charge or fully drain the Battery so don't really know its maximum range. Rated at 150 miles. When it is cold outside, the range really drops off. We left the car outside in 25 degree weather and charged to 90% and ran it down to 20%. We only got 78 miles of range where we should have gone at least 105 miles. The Chademo charging interface for 440 volt DC charging is slowly being phased out. Electrify America is no longer installing Chademo chargers. This could pose a problem long-term. Update: Our inexpensive 2-year Lease on the Leaf ended in August of 2022. Our lease pay-off was $20,500. Of course the Nissan Dealer wanted us to turn the car in. They had an identical Leaf in their lot, same year but more miles for $34k! Basically a new car price for a 2-year old car. But here in the Portland area, many People got bit by the Biden green bug. So we bought out the lease and sold the car within a week to a Mercedes Dealer for $29,500. So driving the Leaf for 2 years, we actually made a little money if you exclude the Auto Insurance. We would have kept the Leaf if it was the "Plus" model (extended range). We do not miss sitting at a charger waiting for the car to charge up which can be hours. We also had issues with broken public chargers, all chargers busy, or at times, an ICE vehicle blocking the charging station. And some chargers were $.55 cents a kilowatt. We do not plan at this time to rush into an EV again. They are a pain in the ass due to limitations in driving range, battery degradation, charging times, expensive insurance and registration. Back to driving our old car and every time we pass a charging station with People sitting in their cars for hours, waiting for the batteries to fill-up, it makes us happy with our decision to go back to an ICE vehicle.

We love our leaf. Having our own solar installation allows us to charge ecomically at home. We enjoy the freedom from oil products and the conforts our leaf has installed.

I have it for almost 3 months and I am happy with my choice, the seats are very comfortable and there is no back pain after driving, no wind noise like other trams the ride is quiet and feels safe on the road, uses pedal 1 and fun to recover energy. Value for money
