So just found out reverse on the leaf is not speed limited. I was wondering... with the weight transfer going to the front wheels in reverse ... wouldn't that make the leaf RWD in this scenario? Would the 0 to 60 times be faster due tot his? :mrgreen:
 
I thought reverse was limited to 25 mph? I haven't tested it myself, but it seems odd to allow 80kW of power in reverse. :eek:
 
I know Top Gear did a test on the Leaf in reverse and they stated they had someone from Nissan remove the limiter in reverse. I thought it was 20 mph, but have never gone that fast in reverse :)
