There is an instantaneous meter in the display behind the steering wheel and also in the navigation (if equipped).
Calculating instantaneous fuel use is easy in the Leaf (pardon my use of miles, just sub in km instead):
[Instantaneous miles/kWh] = [speed miles/hour] / [power kW] <==you may...
Gas would have to drop to $0.50/gal (and stay there) before fuel costs for a conventional car would match the Leaf's fuel costs here in Memphis, TN.
Not going back to gasoline. Not ever. I love not having to go to a nasty gas station every week.
Much less maintenance. Much less time spent...
The wood paneling is beautiful. However, I think Leftie was talking about the black cover on top of the dash. It is kinda lumpy/wrinked looking in the photo but it might not be noticeable in person.
Hi from Memphis! I just got my 2013 SV last week and I am sure that I'll need tinting to reduce the summer heat load.
What was the approximate price for that tint and where did you get it done? Would you go back to the same place and do it again or would you try tinting elsewhere?
Thanks!
