Nobody in this world wants to buy a leaf. (At least not the original model)


Data point of one but: I did!


I might also have bought one if I had been in the market for a car at that time. But not because I would have wanted it, but because I would have needed it :)

I think my comment above was indeed a bit snarky and is rightfully getting downvoted.


Did you own another car, or was the Leaf (24 kWh) your only car?


Only car. Was commuting to and from grad school, my folks place, and my apartment. I pushed it pretty far, and was able to access 240 charging in 2/3, and used 120 overnight. Admittedly did not have a kid, and my wife was able to walk everywhere during the weeks. It was a great car tho!


It looked and drove like a golf cart. And the range was too small.
