Respectfully, that does not make sense. Two CHEVY dealers told me to not come to their dealership because the seats were the same. That's not going to help them move metal.
I had an extensive test drive of a 2018 Leaf S Friday. The center console was not an issue for me. It did not even know this could be a problem for some until I just read your post. For reference, I'm 6'1".
I've also read many people complaining about the driving wheel not being telescoping...
