I had mentioned making this thread earlier, and in view of my 500 mile trip to and from Denver next week I guess I'll make this thread.
This is for all of you who have had or are planning to go an extra distance in your 2011-2017 LEAF to tell others how you did it or are planning to do it and what your general experience was. Generally the LEAF is considered a short distance or "limited range" vehicle. As such, most people are convinced that long trips in a LEAF are impractical or even impossible. Well here's your chance to prove that wrong.
This information will be helpful for other's who are thinking of doing road trips in their LEAFs. This may be because someone ends up or is planning on only owning a LEAF. Or maybe the ICEV broke down. Or perhaps they're doing it just for the fun of it.
If you know of long trip success stories in other Leafs, go ahead and post a link. Or add your own experience in this thread. I'll start here:
280-Mile Single Day Nissan Leaf Roadtrip.
1000-mile Nissan Leaf electric-car Road Trip in the Northeast: are we there yet?
1,500-Mile Nissan LEAF Zero-Emissions Road Trip: How We Charge On The Go
And here's my trip plan:
Any idea what it costs to charge at a CHAdeMO station at a Wal-Mart?
Well that's a start!
