We got our Leaf week ago and the first impression is that it is really quiet inside. Then you turn on the radio... While XM radio sounds good and many people like it, it is not a free option and not needed for those who want to listen local stations. Regular FM radio reception is good, but due to the quiet cabin, you can hear the radio noise and you wish that it sounds better.
Of course, HD radio is available in many places now.
It seems that it will not be easy to add HD radio tuner to the current Leaf sound system, so Nissan should either include the HD radio tuner or allow upgrade with the reasonable price. I am quite sure that it is technically possible as auto manufacturers install custom versions of Pioneer, JVC, Alpine or other brands that do have HD tuners available already for their aftermarket products.
If you know of any HD radio option upgrade, please let me know!
Thanks.
