2011 Nissan Leaf SL Review
ProsAcceleration, interior, and of course "fuel" economy. Charging at home with solar panels makes it the ultimate green car at least for the time being ConsNothing to hate, range could be better, no spare tire (I have bought one after a first flat tire experience)

Powered By The Sun — Excellent acceleration, more upscale than expected, a bit smallish on the interior, especially the trunk. Overall fun to drive (especially on the car pool lane). Of course no need for gas stations, altough range could be better. Reality is about 70-80 miles vs. the advertised 100 miles. Primary Use: Commuting to work

Only 95% Of Americans Could Make It A Daily Driver! — Has some pick up in non- economy at low speed. Could almost blend in with gasoline cars, even from behind the wheel. Range suites 70% to 95% of drivers if people can get comfortable with the 100% electric power train. Packed with features, to make it a very smart car. Rare but potentially dependable energy saving LED headlights | ||

ProsCheap as dirt to run, emits ZERO emissions, no oil changes, tranny or rear end fluids or other frequent changers, tune-ups are essentially nothing. ConsYou only can drive 100 miels at a time, the charger is going to cost almost 2k to install and the car isn't the best looking car on the road (the wife feels different about that comment)

A Real Electric Car Alternative — This is really the first usable electric car on the market. While the Tesla Roadster was a great car, it was made for midgets and was over 100k to buy. This car is a mass produced all electric car that uses the standard for power adapters. Telsa is making a huge mistake by going with propriatry ones that only work with their cars, I think that someone will make an adapter or they will wake up and change them. If you setup a separate meter like I did the power you use is VERY cheap as the power companies are giving great prices to people with Electric cars. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
