I drive about 160 miles 4 to 5 days a week. Most people have suggested Tesla obviously, however I kinda only like the Model S (which I'd have to buy used...scary!) and they are quite hard to find under $40k. I am not really a big fan of the Model 3 although I guess I could compromise.
I have driven both the 2018 SL Leaf and a 2019 SV Leaf+ and I honestly loved both, my family fit better in the 2019. I'm a big fan of tech and aesthetics in vehicles, so I have a few questions:
Would any of you suggest trying to commute a Leaf over 160 miles?
If I dont get a Plus model I was thinking of driving to the nearest fast charger every day to get enough range to get home. How fast will this kill my car?
My dealer tells me you can use any Nissan dealer to quick charge, is this true? Again, how fast am I gonna kill this thing?
Is there an aftermarket for the next gen Leaf? I think the car would look real nice lowered and on a nice set of wheels.
On my test drive Pro-Pilot turned itself off going over a small bump after a bridge. Is this normal behavior? I repeated the test a couple times and it did it every time.
Why should I buy the Leaf over the Tesla? I know that's a silly question but I have spoken to many Tesla owners and heard that side, I have only spoken to one Leaf owner. So please give me your opinions, what made you get the Leaf?
Sorry for the novel and thanks!
