What should I look for when buying a used Nissan LEAF?

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: ProPilot Assist with automated lane-centring and adaptive cruise control, plus forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, traffic sign recognition, driver monitoring, and a 360-degree camera system.
• Infotainment: Standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and infotainment screen on S Plus models, and dual 14.3-inch screens on SV Plus and Platinum Plus models.

The S Plus trim has the longest range at 488 kilometres, while the SV Plus rates at 463 kilometres and the Platinum Plus offers an estimated 417 kilometres.

• Battery health: Check the battery state-of-health, ask how the car was typically charged at home versus on DC fast chargers, and confirm the remaining battery warranty coverage before you buy.
