Surprised not to see a thread about this and some analysis on the battery cost or how it works.

The cheapest out-of-pocket way to go is to buy the LEAF in Visia trim for £15,990 ($24,583 US) after the UK’s £5,000 plug-in grant. Then you’d have to lease the battery pack for between £70 ($108 US) and £129 ($198 US) per month.

So what happens to a purchased car at end of battery lease?
Battery buy out? New battery with new lease payment?

I would be more inclined to buy or lease the whole deal.
