Also, best car I've ever owned. You forget to even inflate the tires, because there is no user maintenance. It is so comfortable and so quiet. Wanna race? I tied a new Mustang the other day. Our Prius feels like a truck compared to this car.
Our Leaf is solar-charged by panels on the garage. No-fuel-motoring.
Best car I have ever owned. A bit pricey to buy but offset by the price of "gas" and very little maintenance needed. The future for sure! Thanks Mike
David Wilson I agree! Thanks for sharing your experience David!
David Wilson It makes a bit more sense in my country (England) considering the distances we driver are a lot lower and Petrol (Gas) price over here work out to about $6.20 per US Gallon.
I would love to have this car in near future.. Hope it get launched in India soon...
+David Wilson Pricey new, but great deals on the 2013's coming off lease. Just bought a '13 SV with only 14k miles for $11k.
the sound that animal makes after you ask the question at 1:34 is priceless
+skoalE Lol
I just bought a used one. I drive very little, mostly commute by motorcycle. Thought I'd "dip my toe" in the all electric pool.
Well, the car is incredible. I thought it would in some way be worse performing than other small cars. The opposite is true. Very brisk acceleration from a dead stop. the interior is much larger and more comfortable than similarly sized cars and the ride smoothness and noise level is Much better. It does my 30 mile round trip commute is half a "tank" and is easily recharged overnight. with the standard 115V charger.
The AC even works great and doesn't hurt range as much as I thought it would. This car is great. The reviews overstate the difficulties of living with an electric car as long as you live within the known range and charge time limitations. I wish I had bought one sooner.
This is probably the most detailed intro to the car, on TH-cam.
The S trim level has halogen lamps while the SV and SL trims have LED headlamps
+Andrew Cavett Thanks!
Good video, thanks. Interesting to spot any differences between this and my 2013 Techna. Pleased to say that I thoroughly enjoy driving my Leaf, it is the most relaxing car I have ever driven. People are usually surprised that you can hear other people's conversations when stuck in traffic - it's that quiet!
For those on a budget, there are now second hand Leafs on the market in the UK and nobody needs to worry about motor wear & tear - it'll probably outlive you!
+MikesCarInfo A bit of info for you regarding the design of the car; the car was designed from the ground up to be as quiet as possible because there isn't any engine noise to drown out an ICE car squeaks and rattles. Accordingly, the raised headlight configurations were designed to deflect the airflow over the wing mirrors, eliminating wind noise. The rear visor and tail light configurations create a swirling vortex of air behind the car which reduces drag as well as being self cleaning. Even the windscreen wiper motors were redesigned as normal ones were too noisy!
In April my car had its second year service and the batteries were tested and returned a 100% reading, so it seems that 26,000 miles has had no effect on them, so I anticipate that Nissan's claim of 5 years without battery degradation will be correct. Time will tell, but it's a fascinating experience and one I'm enjoying immensely.
Thank You for All that you are doing for our Planet Earth.... Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste 🙏🏻 😊 🌈 ✌ ☮ ❤
Thank you for a friendly and thorough review. Previously, I would consider buying this car but now with your review and new features of the car I am eager to drive one.
Quite simply an excellent rundown of the S trim version, with very helpful commentary as well. Very well done. Thanks for taking the time to create this video and sharing with us.
The 'old' car battery powers the computer, entertainment & sat nav systems.
Anyone with 2 cars and
The best leaf review i have seen. 10x
Also, thanks for the HD camera work. It really makes a difference.

After seeing your back pack in the boot i got an idea ..what about an extra battery pack/back pack which we can keep for real emergency or add on for extra milage ,,,just a thought while we patiently we wait for the car here in Africa ..i love this car and i will have one for sure my very own NISSAN LEAF ..im excieted as i write this
I there any way of getting rid of the beeping because the car door is open? it would be super annoying all the time and it is so unnecessary
"she's got the little flippy thing, and the softest felt I ever..."
Great work on the video and information. Keep it up mann!
Thanks a lot for sharing your experionce
Just a comment about your review of the charge ports. You missed noting the quick charge port to the left of the 110/220v port. This S might not have had it, but the cap was there for the 30 minute "fillup" at the QC stations when that option is bought.
+martin n. 27:29
+MikesCarInfo OK, I thought the review was over when you had the speedup of the protective material removal. thanks, I love my Leaf!
I want one!
Most annoying thing about the leaf I had was those damned beeps, beeps all the time, it has a beep for everything, sometimes it seems to beep at you for no real reason other than to try and anoy you, I wish manufacturers would make stuff like that more customisable
Ben Millen I was able to disable them in my 2015 Leaf..
how, i read the manual, searched for guides, no joy! sadly i have a petrol company car now as im doing more miles
Ben Millen Settings > Effects > Off
Hmm although the one I had was a 2013 I think, pretty sure that option wasn't there, thanks anyhoo
Ben Millen My Nissan Rogue is pretty beepy too.
I am sure Nissan makes good Electric car, but the after sale service is more important.
Here in Israel Renault decided it no longer replaces batteries
that degrade by over 50% in just two years.
And unfortunately most of the cars here seem to be having this problem
and that's probably why they stopped!
+מוני דורון "battery is also warranted against capacity loss below nine bars of capacity as shown on the vehicle’s battery capacity level gauge for a period of 60 months or 60,000 miles with the 24kWh battery and 96 months or 100,000 miles with the 30kWh battery"
www.nissanusa.com/electric-cars/leaf/charging-range/battery/
Thank you for the review, it's a very big help.
I looked at this car for hours, sadly, I would barely make it to work and back on a single charge. I would hate to think after 5 years later trying to do it with 70% working battery. I will wait until new generation of batteries come out in the future. Maybe 10 more years and we will have 3 to 500 mile charges. Then we are talking.
+shadowx089 If you feel your commute is at the limit of the 24kWh battery range, you might want to opt for a 2016 model with 30KWh, with which you would then probably have no worry. Also batteries are not likely to decrease in capacity as fast as you think; I believe they now come with a 8 year warranty which provides for free replacement if the capacity does fall below the 9/12 bar indication. Also it is possible to lease the batteries, in which case you have a similar guarantee for the duration of the lease.
shadowx089 move closer to work then
it's why I don't own an ev either. I like to go on road trips. waiting on those new generation of batteries!
the "quick charger" name is confusing, in europe it's called Rapid Charge, which reflects its speed compared to "regular" speed - 8-10 hours, and "fast charge" - 4hours.
You can't compare gas mileage with an EV because it depends on how you charge it. I have Solar panels so I get "free gas".
I don't pay for oil/filter changes. I don't pay for Cambelt changes. Servicing is super cheap.
It's as close to free motoring as it's possible to get I reckon.
Note! I do have a regular gas car. It's a bit of a utility vehicle, with a Tow-Bar. If we need to do a big long drive we'll still take that.
However, my 30Kw Leaf does an easy 100 miles, possibly 120 on a good day (range anxiety). 100 miles covers, literally, 90% of my daily driving.
Also.. it's like driving a Rolls Royce. It's smooth and quiet, like a luxury car. Not for everyone but they make one hell of a 2nd car.
That is the perfect setup. Having a solar setup capable of charging a car in a day is ideal!
The drag coefficient is 0.32. A Prius is 0.26. (Lower is better). Which is kind of odd since you'd think they'd want to go better.
Does the water bottle come Standard?
Nice car
+Brian G lol
Doesn't come standard with the water bottle, however, if you buy from a Dealer they may add it as a "free" option. Check with your dealer first, though.
GREAT NISSAN.
Full beam is Halogen, Dipped is LED.
Maybe I misheard, Mike. Did you say it didn't have a CD player? I saw one.
Thanks for the view. It's one of those cars of the future. Nissan showed a lot of balls to push it out to the public.
+Don Little Yeah I wasn't very clear when I spoke. "It does have a CD player... which I am kinda surprised..."
It had one
halogen on a electric vehicle? regardless of trim or package LEDS should be standard. halogen sick too much energy.
I wonder if there are after market kits to change to LED lights now.
Low range is not a problem Nissan LEAF is your problem. Buy new modules and you will be happy, without any Webasto heaters and battery extenders in the trunk.
MikesCarInfo Can you review 2014 Nissan LEAF SL
126 miles for a full tank as I think, still this is the route we should go to help clean the air faster.
Dude and you never compare it with Porsche
Model S only 50 miles autonomy in winter so, stay in the city for it is a city car.
Are rapid chargers available in Canada?
nice Mike keepup👍
I brought a use one.
I love it but it won’t take me very far.
I must charge it all the time.
What I’m doing wrong?
Even a new one in 2015 had a range of 84 miles. Normal battery degradation should have brought the range down to about 65 miles by now. How many miles are you getting per charge?
Great detailed , very informative commentary.
Less than 9 months later these are on the used market for around $9,000 and around 20K miles. Impressive.
Wow! Where are you finding those great deals? Most Leafs in my area that are in that price range are 5 years old.
I live close to Orlando and Miami, kinda in between the two (50 miles from Orlando, around 110 from Miami), so I can see deals in both cities and I look on Truecar and Carfax.
I searched a little outside my area and sure enough found a 2015 with 20k miles for $9k... Certified!
Good deal for someone that doesn't drive too far from their home.
I'm a delivery driver, but it's a local shop so the delivery hours and range isn't quite as much as a major chain like Dominos. One of my busier days only had me driving 70 miles total commute included..
Would be a buyer at that yr. Any idea if av. and number? Thanks. None on ebay at a good price, word is driving prices up.
"I haven't seen that yet before", so Mr. Time traveller exactly which era are you from?
Seán O'Nilbud Sorry, what are you referring to?
On the key fob, what's the red speaker symbol do, you didn't say?? This is not present on earlier models.
mrjaffar It is a panic button. It will flash the lights and sound the horn.
How far can it go from full charge?
HOU FAR CAN YOU GO IN 1 CHARCH.AND WAY IT DONT CHARCH WAY YOU DEIEVEIT TO..NAT TO SAMART.
How much the battery has valt
Need to do a hundred miles at between 70 and 80 mph...no good, I wouldn't get home. Tesla time.
Alexander Leon Obviously a Tesla would be massively more expensive, but for those on a budget a 100 miles at 70 mph is no problem, providing there is a Rapid recharger roughly halfway. I do this at least once a week - 20 minutes to recharge makes a nice break for a toilet stop etc.
Get a Volt.
I believe that meter to the left of the speedometer is for RPM.
Does S have heat pump?
Arnis Tarassu As far as I remember, it doesn't. Maybe the SL and SV being the posher versions. So if you live somewhere were winter temperatures fall close to freezing (0C or 32F... I think) or plummets far, far past that, then it's something you shouldn't go without. Although, I doubt South Carolina would demand something like that.
toyotaprius79 True. Heat pump is not needed at temperatures above 10C/50F. I stop using "heating" button above that. For chilly mornings seat and steering wheel heater are perfect.
With all that optimistic talk about a Japanese vehicle, its obvious it was both built &
designed right there in the U.S. If it were indeed a 100% inspired Japanese design Americans would be expressing criticism for whatever compliment they gave that vehicle.
NEESARN? It is NISSAN!
:) thanks for the clarification
LED lights
Stephen Ferris Actually, those were not the LED lights. LED lights are available on the highest trim level, but I'm not sure if they are available separately on the lower trim levels.
Great review..
it's not lad but led lights
Not that good of a review really. I stopped watching when he opened the front charging door and only showed one of the two charging ports with no mention of the 2nd Chademo. I bought a used 2012 Leaf over a year ago for $7,200 with 28k miles
27:31
title of the video should be: 'a non petrol head that isn't prepared attempts to review a nissan leaf'
+Andy Tung What?
Leaf suck prius is better with self charging at least they should put gas motor
+Knights221 Prius = 50 mpg, Leaf = 120mpg. Apples and Oranges to compare the two. Prius is a gas vehicle with a small electric axillary motor. Leaf is an electric vehicle.
Why do Americans pronounce the word Nissan as knee-Sarn?
+Adrian Banks Because dialect :)
I would love an electric vehicle, I would love a Nissan Leaf but why did they do it soooooooo ugly?! Nissan also does the Duke and I don't think something uglier ever existed. What on earth is going on there?! Any high school boy can draw something better! Sorry but it is infuriating. They could sell so many more of these if they would look half decent.
Need to edit your videos. Too long. And you didn't even break down how it drove.
Thank you for your feedback
I will never ever buy even touch this ugly car in my life, no offense , just hate its design .
+Hynatos What car do you like?
+MikesCarInfo American and German cars. I love ur videos btw, keep going👌
+Hynatos youtube search the zombie 222 if you are into muscle cars.
....THEN DO WITHOUT !!
this is a car for infidels. man was meant to walk not drive.
...OK ..YOU WALK !!
It's very ugly; particularly the back end. It have a Japanese badge, but I doubt if the design is 100% Japanese; if at all. It's slapped together right there in the U.S... Most likely designed there too. I certainly wouldn't buy it.
