You valued this car at £7500: 2015 35,000 miles. Currently I'm considering buying a 2014 Tekna 70,000 miles for £8500, maybe its not the best time to be looking for an electric car.
Oh wow, I actually struggled to sell mine however the market seems to have gone crazy with increased fuel prices. I hope you manage to find a car that suits you at the right price.
@@ShortCircuitPS2 In Australia we get 30kW Japanese grey imports with 11/12 bar capacity for 200KM range. I bought an Azeo model which is above your model and their top spec version for AU$25,000.00 or £14,700 It's absolutely flawless but we don't get the extreme cold weather of the UK so the batteries fair quite well. I love it. Only charge it overnight and have never run out of range. Then again I only drive locally. It replaced our 2013 Hyundai i30 Premium CRDi 1.6 turbo diesel and it's approx the same horsepower and torque. Great video! Subscribed from Down Under.
I have a 30kwhr LEAF. It's totally perfect for certain roles. Long-distance ain't one of them. It's basically the best value "daily-drive" and shopping EV out there IF YOU CHARGE AT HOME. 1 - Chademo charging is a liability out there. Maybe 1 in 20 stations is Chademo. 2 - 100 miles is my realistic, worry-free, limit. Let's face it, that's enough for most people's daily drive. 3 - It cost me €14,000 in France, 4 years old (14,000 USD) and it hasn't actually depreciated in the 2 years I've had it. You can pick up the 24kwhr version for peanuts now. I'd say it was bargain of the decade at around 5,000 USD if you want a shopping cart of a car, that you charge at home and will cost almost zero in fuel ever. Servicing? forget it. Brakes last forever it seems. It's horses for courses though. If I needed to cover >200 miles a day regularly then I'd get a Model 3 Standard with LFP battery.
I have 44miles roundtrip to work. I can't charge at work and will be sat outside. Back home it will stay in heated garage. So warm battery pack on the mornings and cold in the afternoon. I live in northen Sweden so winter temps are betweem 0 and -30C. Seems like I might be pushing my luck with the 24kw. What do you think?
Living in Sundsvall (Sweden) driving a 2014 24kWh Leaf, first winter for us. We get about 1km per % now. In summer it averaged 132 Wh/km in July, so far in January we are at 304 Wh/km, so more than dubble the consumption in sub zero winter on snow and ice.
I have a 2018 Hyundai Ioniq, and two days ago I was down to 3% with three dashes on the range and I had only travelled 90 miles with temp 3c. The Ioniq is very good during the Summer averaging 145 to 165 miles but it does not like the cold weather. I love my Ioniq but can't wait for my 64kw e Niro in April.
I had a 24kw Leaf in 2017 and did the perfect commute 26 miles each way perfect every day in all weather, we had a 7kw charger worked like a dream Thinking about another one!
An Eco flowr heater is a must for driving this vehicle in the winter
I did autumn test with my 24kwh and only 11 bars and have to say if you drive carefully you should be able to get to 70 miles.
How ist the charge Power AT chademo and at home charging? Thank for your answer

Also if your area has the infrastructure the LEAF can travel long distances

Interesting to hear, cold weather and rain really kills the range, more than I had expected
Nice to see my battery percentage display tip worked out for you!
Thanks yes really appreciate it. I wish I could correct my previous video!
New Nissan leaf owner, how do I “ pre condition “ the battery?
I had a 24kw Leaf in 2017 and did the perfect commute 26 miles each way perfect every day in all weather, we had a 7kw charger worked like a dream
Thinking about another one!
Another interesting test 👍
Many thanks :-)
Swap battery to 40kwh battery. Problem solved. No need to buy a high range car, waste of money.
Does Nissan offer programs for these?
It is not quite small, sorry you have not driven a Smart Car EV, Chevy Spark EV, with even smaller battery packs and no fast charge port
Good video.
