Hi All
I'm about 1 year in to my 2-year lease on a 2012 Leaf. Everything's working well. With my partner using the Leaf for a long-ish commute (30 mi each way) several days a week, we'll be on track to use most of the 24,000 miles on the lease agreement. And we're saving quite a lot on gas (especially with free Level 1 charging at my partner's work).
I'm fully sold on EVs, but I'm starting to think through whether I'd continue leasing this car or trade up to a newer model when the time comes.
I've never leased or renewed a lease before. Does anyone have a line on what 2nd stage lease deals Nissan might be offering and how to think through the terms and price? I suspect that Nissan's discounting and performance enhancements on the 2013 model will make the residual in my contract feel rather high, if that's the basis for continuing a lease.
Thanks in advance.
