Reply to comment by ChalupaCabre in Nissan LEAF EVs will power evacuation centers in Japan when disaster strikes by OvermoderatedNet

been rocking my leaf for 8 years now, and i still love it. the battery isn't what it once was, and will be expensive to replace but i've done nothing but service the tires and add wiper fluid. it has paid for itself.

Yeah it was a great EV, just isn’t keeping up with the times.

What kind of range do you get now?

Our 40kWh new was supposed to get up to 250km… not sure we really could get that, but now 5 years and 90,000km later we get like 130km. It’s pretty sad.

And the DC “fast” charging is anything but fast.
