    I am going back to driving my gas car for the winter.

    2018 Leaf SV comes with the heat pump in Canada. It definitely gets cold here but heating reduces the estimated range by about 10%. The rest of the range reduction is battery chemistry and unrelated to heating. In the dead of the winter, with temperatures below -20C (-4F) my range would go...

    Poor image quality - rear camera

    Ok, so the consensus is that it is not normal.Something, is wrong with it. Basically, your cameras look better.

    Poor image quality - rear camera

    Ok, I should have made it clear... Yes I did clean both lenses (Honda and Leaf) right before talking the picture.

    Poor image quality - rear camera

    Hello, the picture quality of the rear camera on my 2018 Leaf is mediocre. Is it normal or is there something wrong with it? As a comparison, I attached the picture from my 2016 Honda CRV. Same place, same time. Cars parked next to each other. During the day: At night; Cheers, Jan

    EV specific winter tires

    Nevermind... None of those tires are available for 17in wheels...😳

    EV specific winter tires

    Where I live, winter tires are mandatory so it's not a question of "if" but rather "which tires". When I got my Leaf in 2018, I got a set of Gislaved. I was quite happy with them but they need to be replaced. Back then, I don't think there were any EV specific tires. Now, I see: - HankookiON -...

    EV specific winter tires

    Are x-ice EV specific tires? I thought those were just regular good winter tires not specifically designed for EVs

    EV specific winter tires

    Does anyone have experience with EV specific winter tires on their LEAF? Is there a real, noticable difference vs regular winter tires? Thank you, Jan

    Neutral with a dead 12v

    To me, having cables longer than standard or parking face out is a workaround. IT works but it is a solution to a problem created by the car not having the option to be switched to neutral without power. Regarding parking backwards, there are plenty of reasons not to do it. In my particular...

    Neutral with a dead 12v

    Ok, I was looking for a simple solution. Like, insert your key here and push a button... You know... Like any other car out there... But I guess the simple answer is no, there isn't any such a way. A serious design flaw in my opinion.

    Neutral with a dead 12v

    The problem I faced was the way the car was parked, I could not reach with buster cables from another car. What is a RAG manual?

    Neutral with a dead 12v

    Hello, I have a simple question: is there a way to put a 2018 Leaf in neutral when the 12v battery is dead and you can't turn the car on? Thank you

    LeafSpy compatible adapters (known working) Updated 14-03-2022

    Hello, I just purchased Veepeak OBD-II Scan Tool. It works with LeafSpy. I don't think it has an auto shutoff function. A little red light stays on all the time and I can detect and pair it with my phone as long as it's plugged in...

    What's new for 2020?

    Because of weight and cost I think there is a limit on the size of battery that is practical to be included in the car. A long term solution would be to have some way to draw power wirelessly from the infrastructure along the major highways and use onboard battery when driving on the secondary...

    installed new winter tires - epedal working "weird"/not re-gen?

    I just went for a ride and observed the car's behavior with the information from this thread in mind. I think it is a question of how slippery the road is. I noticed the regen did not always kick in on small residential streets that had some slush on them. Once I arrived on a more used road that...

    installed new winter tires - epedal working "weird"/not re-gen?

    I am very interested in the solution to this problem or at least an explanation. I have noticed a similar behavior. I haven't noticed if the problem started after I installed winter tires. I bought the car in mid October and for sure I notice it much more now than right after delivery. Winter...

    Winter Tires

    I actually figured out the tires are not run flat as the sales person at the dealer told me. The lack of spare tire problem is "dealt with" by including a emergency repair kit which is hidden int he trunk. Ha! Who knew?!? :)

    Winter Tires

    Same situation. A week old 2018 Leaf SV and I love it but... it came with run flat tires on mags: 215/50R17. Apparently there are no run flat winter tires in this size... The car has no spare tire and comes with summer tires that don't have a winter equivalent... Seems like an "oups" on...
