Nissan LEAF

The Nissan Leaf is an all-electric compact hatchback that has become one of the world's best-selling electric vehicles (EVs). The Leaf is known for its practicality, zero-emission powertrain, and user-friendly features. Since its 2011 debut, it has evolved through two generations, with the latest models offering a more contemporary design, increased driving range, and advanced safety technologies. Owners appreciate its smooth acceleration, quiet cabin, and low operating costs, making it an ideal choice for daily commuting and urban driving. However, the Leaf faces criticism for its limited range compared to some rivals, as well as a somewhat bland interior design. Additionally, some drivers may find the rear seats less accommodating than those of competing hatchbacks. Despite these drawbacks, the Nissan Leaf remains a popular option for eco-conscious buyers seeking a practical and affordable EV.

2014 Nissan Leaf SV

5.0

I absolutely love the way the interior was designed. Everything from the materials, color scheme, instrumentation/controls/displays was well thought out. One minor improvement would be to reposition cup holders in 2nd row seating. Rather than having the cup holders in the rear door panels, move them to the center of the 2nd row seating. Either the center arm rest/storage lid's hinge could unfold 180 degrees with cup holders built in, or the center divider between the foot rests could have cup holders. I truly love driving my Nissan Leaf. I've had it a month, and I am still exploring all its features.

2014 Nissan Leaf SV

5.0

Yes... needs additional 9V outlets, esp in the back. (It's an electric car, it should have more of them). Needs power driver's seat, at least front to back. Needs another 15-25 miles in range on one charge. Needs to charge about 20-30% faster
