Now that I have had over three months and nearly 4,000 miles with the 2018 LEAF S with a 5/18 build date here are a few things I noticed: 1. I definitely have noticed the speedometer accuracy issue. Started a thread about it before realizing there are numerous other threads on the same topic. I...

I am seeing a 3/4 MPH difference with cruise set at 35. So more like a 10% difference. I assume it is off more at 75 MPH but haven't tested it besides using a GPS app which I understand is not exact. Why should someone NEVER drive 75 in a Leaf? Other than sucking the battery life much quicker...

Yeah that is what I think we are experiencing. If I am seeing 3/4 MPH difference at 35 MPH, then it would be more like 7 MPH difference cruising down the freeway at 70. That is quite the discrepancy! And a 10% difference would, over time, make the odometer quite inaccurate as well. At a 10%...

I tried to do a search for this topic but came up empty. We bought a 2018 LEAF S in June (last new one in the state... or so said the dealer) and we have really enjoyed the car. One weird issue is it seems like the LEAF is not traveling at the speed shown on the speedometer. Here in AZ people...

The car I bought? It was new on the lot. I saw the sweet deal you got on your 2018 LEAF SV in California. I really wish AZ had additional credits like you guys do out there. Your capped doc fee is pretty nice too!

I have an electrician coming on Thursday to give me a quote on putting in a dedicated 240 outlet at 40 amps. My thought is with my breaker panel on the outside of the garage wall it would be a pretty straightforward job. I believe my panel box is "full" so I may need to adjust and have a dual...

This was at Larry H Miller Nissan at Mesa Riverview. I do not love the dealership but from what I could find it was the last 2018 LEAF in the Phoenix area. Their website also shows a 2018 black SV in the inventory but the sales manager said Nissan put a hold on it and it will be sent back to...

Yikes, I hadn't looked into the 240 outlet situation in depth before purchasing as I plan to do almost all my charging at the office. But the new EV spaces aren't opening until next Monday. I guess I will just keep trickle charging until then! Thanks to everyone for all the feedback. I will...

I just purchased a 2018 Leaf S with quick charge and weather package on Thursday: MSRP: 33,785 Subtotal: 22,499 Sales Tax: 1,917 Dealer Installed Options - tint/edging/nitro: 503 (annoying but down from a ridiculous 1495) Dealer Doc Fee: 499 (extra annoying) Reg/Title: 81 Total OTD: 25,499 I...

Hello all! This forum helped me learn quite a bit about the Nissan Leaf over the past couple months since I started looking into the vehicle so I thought it was about time to register and become part of the community. Especially since I finally pulled the trigger and bought the last 2018 Leaf S...
