Is Nissan’s e-Pedal feature on the LEAF a game changer or a gimmick?

It's great for efficiency, but I worry that new drivers will run off of it too much. You still need to practice using the brake pedal.
How does the interior space of the Nissan LEAF compare to equivalent size gas cars?

Cargo space is awkwardly shaped, but it’s roomier than my old Civic. There are some times I miss having a normal trunk for larger items.
Is a lack of active battery cooling in the Nissan LEAF a deal breaker?
06 January 2025 08:13
It depends on your use case. It’s not a big deal if you’re leasing or you only plan to keep the car for a few years. You definitely have to worry about that for long term ownership, particularly if you want to fast charge a lot.
Is the Nissan LEAF future proofed by CHAdeMO charging standard?
06 January 2025 08:13
It's definitely a concern. I’ve seen fewer CHAdeMO chargers installed in my vicinity and CCS is all over the place. In the future, this might limit what road trip options could have and become a serious issue.
Now that we have some time under our belt with the Nissan LEAF, how does its value proposition stack up in 2024?
06 January 2025 08:13
It depends on your needs. The LEAF is hard to beat if you want a no frills, reliable EV for commuting. If you need long range or the latest tech, however, look elsewhere.
