What are the long road trip capabilities like on the Magnite when compared to its rivals?
06 January 2025 08:21
The Magnite doesn’t feel as planted on the highway as my friend’s Venue, which is more assured, in crosswinds. It's good for occasional trips, but if you drive often then you probably want something else.

It's a mixed bag. It's a great turbo when it's time to overtake, but the roads are bad and you feel the suspension. For the price, it’s a decent tourer.

It handles a couple of 500+ km trips, and they're not a problem. The CVT version is the key – the AMT or manual is much more tense on highways.

I drive between cities regularly, and the Magnite is competent enough for me. It's not luxury car comfortable, but it's not uncomfortable by far. The AC is also a champ on hot days.

In fact, I prefer it for long trips over more expensive cars. Its interior is simple enough that there are scant distractions and the driving position is ideal for me. Not even tired after 6-7 hours of driving.
Is the additional cost for CVT over the AMT worth it for the Nissan Magnite?
06 January 2025 08:21
Absolutely worth it! The CVT turns the Magnite from a basic commuter into a peppy little runabout. Yes, it’s more expensive, but in the long term the smooth acceleration and improved fuel efficiency make up for this.
Is the additional cost for CVT over the AMT worth it for the Nissan Magnite?

Nah, stick with the AMT. It's cheaper and it gets the job done. You’ll also save a ton of money up front that you can spend on accessories, or just put in your pocket. Once you get used to it, the AMT's not as bad as people make it out to be.
Is the additional cost for CVT over the AMT worth it for the Nissan Magnite?

Depends on your driving. If you are mostly in the city, the AMT is fine. However, if you’re on highways frequently, the CVT is a game changer. Long drives are so much more relaxing and overtaking is much better handled.
Is the additional cost for CVT over the AMT worth it for the Nissan Magnite?

If you can stretch your budget, I’d say go for the CVT. And resale value is not just about smooth driving. Typically, the used car market treats CVT models better than those with manual or automatic transmissions.
Is the additional cost for CVT over the AMT worth it for the Nissan Magnite?
06 January 2025 08:21
I actually really wish I had gotten the CVT. After a while, the jerky shifts of the AMT get really annoying in stop and go traffic. If you're going to keep the car for a few years, the extra cost of the CVT is completely worth it.
Is Nissan’s e-Pedal feature on the LEAF a game changer or a gimmick?
06 January 2025 08:13
Absolute game-changer! After a while you’ll never want to go back. It makes stop and go traffic so much less stressful.

So I tried it, and after a week I turned it off. It's a bit too jerky for my taste, and too aggressive. Regular regen is fine for me.

The option is nice, but it's not a game changer. I leave it on in the city but turn it off for highway driving.
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.

It's not a gimmick, but it's not revolutionary. Other EVs have similar features, and you have to get used to them.
How does the interior space of the Nissan LEAF compare to equivalent size gas cars?
06 January 2025 08:13
Inside, the LEAF feels a lot roomier than you'd imagine. A huge difference for passengers as the flat floor in the back.

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.

It has a great interior space but the seats not so comfortable for longer trips. It's a trade-off I guess.

I was amazed by how much stuff fit in it. The super practical hatchback design is great for groceries and small furniture.

The inside is bigger than the outside, but it’s disappointing not to have a frunk like some other EVs.
