we have had our 2020 40kw from new. easily the best car we have ever owned. i have been driving since 1979. the leaf has cost us just 10 quid one wiper blade in 4 years. 2023 cost us 190 quid in electric the entire year. if you can charge at home and only do 100 miles a day then just buy one. ours has never been fast charged only the supplied nissan charger. it's lost no range in 30k miles
A pretty reasonable review as someone who's owned a Gen 2 Leaf for a year (plus other EVs). As for the charging connectors based on another comment, CHAdeMo only affects DC Rapid Charging. For home / public chargers usually in car parks you have the second connector which is either Type 1 / J1772 in the American Markets or Type 2 in Europe. CCS 1/2 is then a Type 1 / 2 socket with two additional pins underneath. The one pictured in the video is actually the Type 2 CCS used over here in europe.
All EVs in Japan and the USA? In Europe the Leaf has type 2 for slow charging and chademo for rapid. Not sure which the Aussie version has. Possibly type 2 if they get the UK built car.
I drove the Jaguar I-Pace and I don't understand why is has no lumbar support and why the car doesn't stay still on forward nor reverse if I'm on a hill. It feels like its on neutral all the time.
You can get a new one from £15-16k at the moment because manufacturers have targets to meet and are fined £18k for each car they are under their target.

Yes I should have been clearer on the charger affecting fast chargers only due to a second connector, thanks for highlighting this 👍
31 and never owned a car
The Leaf has 2 connectors chademo is for fast charging only, J1772 is the normal home charging connector for all evs
I thought the J1772 (Type1) is for AC only and only used in North America? In Europe the standard is normally CCS1 from memory 👍
All EVs in Japan and the USA? In Europe the Leaf has type 2 for slow charging and chademo for rapid. Not sure which the Aussie version has. Possibly type 2 if they get the UK built car.
Currently available new from £16k… May trade in my Jaguar I-Pace!

Thanks for this review. It was very informative.
Thanks for the feedback 👍
Is it wise to buy a used Nissan leaf 2018 in 2024? It is cheaper but i dont know how many years the battery will last

I think for the price you’ll pay for a 2018 it will give you your moneys worth . Even if it lasts you 8 years your ona winner
No mention of 12volt battery issues 😢
Which model?
Every EV has 12 volt battery problems.
@RevvyVibes what's it used for?

best car in the world
just bought one today!
Can't afford sht with a mortgage and excessive strata.
Don’t bother buying one, stick with petrol or diesel.
The leaf is worth peanuts nowadays.
