Used 2018 Nissan LEAF for Sale near Victoria, BC

I am thrilled with my 2018 Nissan Leaf. Its everything I hoped for in an EV!

Sleek, powerful and fun to drive! The adaptive cruise control is amazing and I love the fact it will save me 15k in gas over the course of 5 years!

If you are looking for a car to drive in the city only, this may be the car for you. We backed out of the deal when we learned that unlike other brands, the Nissan Leaf doesnt have a cooling system on the battery. This reduces the longevity of the battery, particularly for long commutes. The car we tried had lane assist but that feature is a little over the top for a city only vehicle. The battery is the biggest liability on an EV. Taking care of it should be the engineers top priority.

This car has great comfort, great technology, lot of cargo space in the trunk, higher doors (almost a compact-SUV (or CUV). But this car lack of decent range when driving on higway (perhaps between 150 to 200 km for the 40 KWh battery) and lack of thermal management system (no cooling nor heating of the high voltage battery) so expect some battery degradation over many years. It also lack of a software setting to set the max State of Charge (SOC) to 80% or 90% for daily commute (many other brands offer this set-in and forget it setting). So this car will always fully charge to 100% on Level 1 and Level 2 charging and this may contribute to higher battery degradation over many years (6-10 years).

Great economical , reliable electric car . Solid design and great ProLiant features
