De-contenting: The Nissan LEAF has a lot of ‘extra’ features that really aren’t necessary if you are just looking to drive 73 miles (or less) to work everyday. Therefore, the complex navigation system is said to be on the chopping block for something less pricey.
Also, those fancy LED headlights, with their integrated aerodynamic design apparently have to go. While they are very cool, and save the car perhaps a mile or two of range when driving at night, they also add about a $1,000 to the cost of the car.
