On a new one sorry I wasn't clear on that.
You can find regional incentives on Nissans at https://www.choosenissan.com/.DustanT said:On a new one sorry I wasn't clear on that.
DustanT said:Wow lots of info to read through here thanks a lot guys. Can someone explain the incentives? I called a dealer near me and asked if I could get some info on a leaf they asked what was a leaf. Needless to say I said uh never mind and hung up. What is the real price of the car and how is the incentive applied.
I was just at my dealer near Akron, Oh getting a ‘19. They had a very nice late-‘13 SV with roughly 16k miles for @$8500. Was 11 bar, showing @ 83% SOH on Leafspy. The worst thing I can say about it is that it reeks with cigarette smoke. A friend of mine was looking so test drove it. Also test drove a ‘16 S (24KWh) that is very clean. Google search Ron Marhoffer Nissan. Both are on their website.DustanT said:I would say board lightly lol we get down right horrible winters here, up to 200" of the white stuff per year and -40f temps. Parking at work is outside but at home I have a wood stove heating the garage and a lot of times its 70 to 80 in there but average 50 to 60 over night as the stove runs down. My budget is around $8,000, I've been looking at cargurus and 500 mile radius, not sure if there is another site to use for searching. Nothing in my price range in northern michgan and very little electric cars in general in a 200 mile radius. Mostly looking at the SL and SV trims.

I didn’t notice any burn holes. Personally have no tolerance for cigarette smoke, my eyes were watering... Told my friend that we could likely get most of the smell out with a wet carpet shampoo machine. As for the battery, others have defined SOH%. Recall the white one had a carfax out of Washington DC area so likely some moderate heat. I could tell it wasn’t NE Ohio because the lack of salt corrosion. It does not have a DCFC port. Thus, given the low miles, likely means the battery degradation likely happened from leaving plugged in for long periods of time at a high state of charge.DustanT said:I'm looking at those now, the smoke smell can be removed I think but hope there is no burn holes. So this SOH% just give you an idea of how long the battery will last?
Astros said:Doing a quick search in the same area as that dealership, I think you would be better off going for a 2016 SV, like this one: https://cargur.us/sTGm6
Only trouble with that listing is they don’t show the number of battery bars remaining, so you would need to check it out carefully.
Astros said:Sorry, I just noticed that listing is actually far away, and was included because they offer cheap shipping. But, that means you don’t get to check the car out first, which is not a good idea in a used Leaf.
