Are there any previous EV1 owners who now have a Leaf? I am interested in your experience and comparison of the two cars. Besides the obvious in terms of 2 seat vs 5 seat and styling, what has your driving experience been like? Additionally what has your experience been with Nissan in terms of 'support'. While we all know about GM's corporate indifference to the EV1, my local dealership and EV Rep, Lisa Thomas, did everything they could to make my 6 1/2 year experience a positive one.
From any current owners of the Leaf in Arizona, I have seen several threads on markedly reduced range with air conditioning in use. Since this is obviously NOT an option in AZ, I am interested in what effect it is having in this environment. Which dealer have you used and what has the experience been?
Just a side note. I stopped by Power Nissan in Tempe on Thursday afternoon when I saw a 'demo' unit at the charging station. Was there about 15 minutes. NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON CAME UP AND ASKED IF THEY COULD HELP ME OR ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
Congratulations to all who have taken the plunge with the Leaf. I hope to join you soon!
