Buying the 2015 Nissan Leaf
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2015 Nissan Leaf for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 2015 Nissan Leaf, here are the facts that matter.
Before you sign for the Leaf
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Specs, explained
Under the hood: the electric motor and front-wheel drive. Being electric, it is quiet and quick from a stop, and it charges at home, at work or at public chargers. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
For every 100 km it uses about 18.4 kWh. Its rated range is 135 km on a full charge; real range drops in cold weather and at highway speeds. For 1,000 km, budget about $27.60 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$650 a year for 15,000 miles.
How big it is
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. With 680 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Best uses
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Rent it for a week first
A test week in the Leaf tells you more than any review. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Leaf answers the big questions. Rent the Leaf for a week and see how it fits your life.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $2.76 in electricity.
Choosing the right one
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
