Not to knock your driving, but in the summer I can easily pull out 5 miles per kW, which would be 30 miles. If you assume that your "hour" isn't exactly 60 minutes but a little over that, and you get even slightly better energy efficiency than me (e.g., you live in a less hilly area) then 35...

It's nice to know there is an L3 at Nissan HQ. Too bad they screw over us Canadians by not allowing you to get the quick charge port as an add-on for the S model. I hope by the time my lease is up they will have more L3s around, and are willing to include it on the base model like they do for...

I have a 2013 S and don't have to do that either. My guess is also that you haven't taken your foot off the brake pedal before turning off. I know that if you turned on the car while charging but then unplug you are not automatically in ready to drive mode (green car isn't showing). You have...

Yikes! That's a lot more CO2 per kWh than we put out here in Ontario. Even if I charged at a constant rate for a full 24 hour period the average would only be around 120g of CO2 per kWh (based on published data I found). Since I usually only need to charge at off-peak times, between midnight...

I will be getting a Leaf Model S next month and trading in my Juke in the process. I have a set of winter tires for the Juke that I would like to continue using, size 215/60R16. The diameter/RPMs of these tires are a bit outside the recommended range above, according to 1010tires.com, so I'm...
