Nissan Leaf Electric 150PS (A) Review
30 May 2019  |  Nissan Reviews
The Nissan Leaf may be a tad expensive compared to its rivals but it's a zippy EV with decent range and a massive boot.

What We Dislike
Lump in second row
CHAdeMO system
It's a $160,300 Nissan hatchback that you can't fast-charge in public for now

Have been driving it for 3 years. So far so good. Even though the look is outdated, it still performance well. Very economical 14kWh/100km. @30cents/kWh that is $4.2/100km. For average 600km per tank of ICE car, that is $24/tank. Pickup speed is 8seconds from 0-100km/h.
Comparison: The BYD seal is doing 18kWh/100km. Good car for running around if you have charger as it is 300km range only. Thats also a good idea as you don't need to carry that extra heavy battery around that comes with longer range EV. Just tested the Seal because of look, but there is no clear advantage for getting one. The battery health after 3 years is still 100%. Caveat is I use a home charger not a fast charger.

Reliable. One of the earliest EVs. Fast acceleration and responsive. 300km range is sufficient for Singapore. No need to carry extra weight from excess battery which are very heavy as the longer range EVs.

Review
Invited for test drive the new Nissan Leaf and brought along my nephew to the event. Overall the car is good except for the pricing and the raised up rear floor board which you won't feels comfortable for those who are tall if travel a long distance.

What I like
The new travel distance per charged compared to Hyundai and Kia. The features and the overall setup.

What I do not like
Don't like the raised up floor board which make your legs feels tired and for long distance, you might not feels comfortable if you are above 1.7m or long legs.

A bit overprice same as Hyundai and Kia. It's better to go for Hybrid in the end.
