I never cared for Eco mode, even in the 2015. I always used B. I didn't mind the sluggish braking for regen, but the sluggish accelerator took the fun out of driving an electric, lol. I noticed this car actually comes with a 240v EVSE. For the 240v: What am I supposed to install for an outlet...

Hi all. Recently added a 2023 SV+ to our fleet. I also have a 2015 SV. I mostly upgraded for increased range capacity. I seemed to notice there are a lot of tech upgrades for not hitting stuff in the 2023 :). With the increased range, I also just ordered a level 2 EVSE, because a 120 isn't...

Just got my 3rd Leaf today! We needed longer range (some reduced range capacity with my 2015 coupled with some job shifting). A new driver aged into our household driver pool (yay for not being a glorified chauffeur anymore) so we decided to add a 3rd car and let the kid take the shorter range...

Sooo, When I got my 2012 Leaf, the dealer set up the whole carwings app and account for me. It was awesome. For car #2, I was in a bit of a rush, and they didn't set it up. I have had this car for nearly 3 years and have NEVER used carwings. Is it too late? Does it cost money (I had heard...

Good point on the full inspection while under warranty - if I keep it, I was going to take it in to change to snow tires anyway...

TIA for info! End of 3 year lease on my 2015 Leaf SV is Dec 31. Buyout is $10800 + 300 fee + taxes. Car has 26K miles (lease was 15K/year for 3 years, but I changed jobs so am way under). I have a dent that needs repairing ($500 ish) when I scraped the side backing out of my garage one day...

It does make a difference. Away, but at home too, because I tend to max out the range with my commute. Sometimes I want to go back out but can't right away. Or I forgot to plug in and need to run an errand. Okay, I think I hear what you all are saying. I'll have to compare cost to see if it is...

Dealership placement: Don't park regular cars in the charge spot. The dealership near me is not very good about this since the charge spot is right by their service bay door. I have heard of a few people going up Rt 1 to Acadia National Park in Maine. Right now there are dealership charge...

Okay - my fault in translating what he wanted to know. I guess hubby is okay with changing out the outlet and moving up in amperage. As long as the 6.6 kW charger is okay with it. What would you move up to if you wanted to take full advantage? He just doesn't want to burn anything out.

Okay, so here is my deal. I'm going to have to update my signature! I was coming off of a $201 for 15k, 2 year ($0 down). I was paying $212 month to month after taxes I signed on 1/1/16, but most of the deal specifics were set up via email quote with dealer during the week in advance. Length...

Ahh, okay - I am going to online shop for this today, so I'll be reading the forums carefully! While I'm reading, I'll give an update on that lease deal. I got lucky. Thank you!

Are the prongs the same on the EVSE upgrade from the guy here (forgive me, I don't remember his name, but he did the modification) and on the 2015 onboard equipment? I am pretty sure we have a 40 amp box, but I'll have the hubby check. I appreciate the quick response. Wish me luck on the final...

Hey all, Upgrading my lease (hopefully) from a 2012 to a 2015 SV. I had the evse 240 v upgrade from here, so I have that on my house. What do I need on my house to take advantage of the 6.6kw onboard charger on the 2015? Thank you! C

First 2 months of carwings data in! May 2013 1185 miles, 4.0 mi/kWh June 2013 1067 miles, 4.5 mi/kWh Less commuter mi in June, more in-town driving. My commuter miles are rural with hills.

My car = family car = Subaru forester '07 -> husband His car = Subaru Impreza '02 nearing 200K -> for sale Anticipated carbon savings 10,000 lbs/ year and saving $200 or more in gas each month. Love it!

Hopefully, 120v at work is temporary. They are investigating a charging station full on, but I don't know the timeline. wish me luck! Just made my first roundtrip to work today after charging on the 120V up to 100% over the weekend. Eco struggled with the rural hills, but I made it back just...

I am definitely going to have to figure out how to do the pre-warm timed while plugged into the 120V. You all recommend 1 hr before leaving? At what temp do I need to worry about this? I did find out today that work will allow me to plug into the 120V plug down in maintenance they have for...

Here is a spreadsheet that I did. Feel free to make a copy and use it, modifying for your wn assumptions like electricity. I had 0 down so right now the leaf is a 3rd car, but I don't think I'll need to hold on to the other. I think the depreciation would be more than if I just needed to rent...

Ordered EVSE upgrade yesterday, and 240V outdoor outlet installed today (no garage, but an overhang and a cover protect the outlet), so we are on our way. I am hoping we get a place to plug in at work before winter starts, just for piece of mind. I'll have to take some time to figure out...

I just got $201 for 24 mo, $0 out of door (first payment only), 15K for an SV w/Splashguards. Residual was about 19K. I think this is unusual. They don't sell many Leafs in this area since its not really "metropolitan", and this had obviously been sitting on the lot for some time. I wish I...
