Yeah, there's basic differences in styling and approach between US - Japanese companies as it is. I can't get on board with the Mac vs PC meme (obviously all the EV conversions out there are 'Linux').
I hope both cars do well in the marketplace.

The Nissan Leaf is a very different car to the Volt. The Leaf has an almost feminine curvy styling with a front end highly evocative of so many Japanese anime series. Its front-mounted charger port door forms a button nose low down and high headlamps almost give the car a set of eyebrows.
In contrast, the Volt's grille is lower and more predatory. There's not a hint of fluffy bunnies or big doleful eyes and it looks as if it would sooner bite your finger off than accept a friendly pat. And it's not at all feminine.
