Leaf SV

Black Leaf SV no options
Edited this to reflect a renegotiation to a better price.

Dealer discount $4186
Lease rebate state and Nissan $12000
Total lease payments 36 months $10268

Posting my purchase experience for my 2nd LEAF.

2018 Leaf SV with Tech Package + All Weather package - White Dual tone paint, ProPilot
Got it from Raceway Nissan in Riverside, CA

Sticker MSRP $37,500
Total Discounts $7,860
- Dealer discount $4,860
- Nissan Loyalty $1,000
- Nissan Grad Cash $1,000
- NMAC Cash for Financing $1,000 -
- 0% financing for 60 months

Pre-Fed/State Rebates Total Cost $29,640

I'm eligible for $7,500 Federal Rebate and CA State EV Rebate $2,500 which brings the effective cost to $19,640

Taxes, Registration, Fees $3,150

Had a 2016 Leaf SL Premium 34,000 miles (on a LEASE with 8 months left with payoff at $15,200) to Trade in and got a Trade-in of $13,500 (Carmax had appraised at $11,200)


I guess the Dealer wanted to get it off their lot. Couldn't refuse the great discount offer and Trade in price offered. I was in double mind if I wanted to wait for the improved longer range 2019 one . But this deal sealed it. Gets me a new HOV sticker. I have an 80 mile daily commute and I don't think I'm going to run out of juice even after several years of battery degradation.

Quite happy with the ProPilot assist.

So extremely happy to finally be able to talk about my brand new 2019 Nissan Leaf!!!

Went into the dealership with a deal on the 2019 SV Gunmetal- price agreed 34K
While discussing things I asked about the Glacier White SL they also had on lot.. they offered it for only 2K MORE!!!

After trade in, and down payment financed about 14K... will put all gov incentives into the loan..come February.

Dealership was over 70 miles away, left with a full battery, drove home, went shopping and eat, then came to work today and STILL have over 47% battery remaining!!! Drove approx 80 miles so far including interstate miles!!!

ProPilot is simply amazing.

All around view is life changing.

Apple Car play is wonderful.

Ride is of course super quiet and smooth as glass.

As I type this my electrician is installing my 240v outlet for all of my charging needs.

So happy and thrilled with my new EV!!!!!

'I got my Leaf' last Friday (December 14).

2016 'S' model
24kWh battery
6.6kW charger upgrade
~18,100 miles
Pearl White
Black interior
Nissan Certified Pre-Owned warranty
$15K out the door

Today I received the OEM all-season floor mats (999E4-8Z000), and installed them right away. Those will definitely help around here (Pacific Northwest).

This was apparently a lease return. I've put about 100 miles on it so far . . . my range requirements are not very high, so I can probably get by with charging once per week. For now trickle charging will be enough . . . will explore L2 charging options at some point.

Will also will be exploring aftermarket wheels and tires, with emphasis on light weight. Current tires are about halfway through their usable tread depth.

It's my first electric vehicle, and so far I'm happy with it.

You got the very last of the best batteries Nissan ever made. Congrats.

Thanks!

Almost forget: all twelve bars of battery life left still.

Arrived home earlier after a 7 1/2 hour drive RT from Apex, NC with my new-to-me Gun Metallic 2015 SV, less than 14K miles, and out the door price of $14k. Originally planned to have it shipped up, but nobody could do that fast enough for my taste, so I enlisted my brother, his truck and a U-Haul vehicle trailer.

It had the TCU upgrade performed (working flawlessly for now, but aware of the battery drain issues) and best of all, my L2 EVSE arrived (32A MUSTART) arrived just before I got the car home. Charging currently and my first priority is to pump the tires up to 40 psi.

This one has no QC port, but that's not an issue for me since we may never have one in our surrounding area. For now, I'm happy with L2 charging at home, with 3 free public L2 stations in our area (thank you Volvo!)

Even after my initial test drive, I'm still amazed at how quiet it is, even compared to the Prius I'm keeping for long distance trips.

Got my 2018 SV with tech package last night. Dealer only had red or pearl white in stock.. 2 tone white inventory are scarce now, dealers know and wouldn’t work on price on it.

Didn’t realize that the Navi wasn’t set up until I got home (no gps card in the Sd card slot) gotta schedule to bring the car back already :/

Coming from a 2016 sv there are def improvements. Miss the heated seats that was standard in the SV. Love the LED that came with the tech pkg. couldn’t stand the super dim lights from the ‘16
