Used Nissan LEAF for Sale

This is the second Leaf I have purchased. It takes some getting used to driving an electric car but once you do its hard to imagine going back. I rely solely on the charger that came with my car even though you can purchase a faster charger. It has a lot of techie extras which I didn't think I would need but I actually love. Bluetooth, keyless entry, GPS. Driving the car doesn't feel like an electric car and I have been in gas cars with less pick up. Going uphill there is plenty of power but it does use quite a bit of the charge. I live up a hill which has caused problems since its the end of my drive and if I'm running close to running out the hill makes it unpredictable and that makes me nervous. The other thing to be aware is that you use quite a bit more power when the heater is running I live in a pretty mild climate without too many weeks of freezing weather but I might be an issue for other parts of the country. The car tells you when ever it gets below 38 degrees. So overall driving an electric car is very different you need to consider range instead of gas but running out of charge is definitely more challenging then stopping by a gas station but overall Its worth not having to pay for gas.

I bought this car almost two years ago and love that I have not had to have it serviced. We have put around 18,000 miles and have had no problems.

The Leaf is really cool in that it's an electric car so you NEVER have to buy gas and you don't have to go in for routine oil changes. You can also charge it at your own home, and if you plan well, it will get you anywhere you need to go within a 10 mile radius. There are many downsides though that newer models have probably addressed. The range is very low (listed at 60, but more like 50 in perfect conditions for my used model). The range is very negatively affected by running the A/C or the heat and winter cold snaps are killer on the battery.
