Leafy Suburb


After the successful experience with the VW e0Up! I underwrote another electric vehicle yesterday - a 2018 Nissan Leaf. A bit of paint on some light scuffing, a door dent removed, a good valeting and it should be up for sale sometime next week, holiday shutdowns permitting.




An alleged range of 163~236. Really good acceleration of 7.1 ~ 8.3 seconds for 0-60. Love it.

Unlike the e-Up!, the Leaf uses a CHAdeMO connection for a rapid charge, instead of a CCS cable. Another cable and connection system to learn to operate.


The charging times are around the same as the e-Up!, but the range is twice as much.


Once prepped, it should provide a handsome return on the investment.
