Last Sundays MW was all praise for Leaf! :D :D IIRC, they said "8 months of resisting Nissan's calls to get it back, our staff are still hooked to it!". Interview with driver said limited range was not a problem, despite the distances they travel.

Considering that Oahu is 64 miles along its farthest axis, and half that from Waikiki to the North Shore (Hal'eiwa), a Leaf seems PERFECT. Price of gas on the islands is almost $1 more then mainland, and although the $/KWh is about $0.32, bottom line still seams cheaper for Leaf. It would...

Second survey to ask this question (copied directly from it): Doesn't mean they will, but seems serious consideration. I would use it however since I need to occasionally go long distance. (Edit, quote box added)

What should you tell a builder to install in a new-build house in preparation for an EV? I read this post: http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=9631" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; So the socket depends largely on the charger one uses? Suggests have box and...

The other shoe has dropped,Adobe has decided to abandon supporting Flash on tablets. Android 4.0 is the last supported OS, don't expect it to work on any version after that. Flash does have uses, but its high CPU and GPU demands make it completely unsuitable on tables and phone. Not much...

Read first Due to the horrible quake, tsunami, and nuclear disaster in Japan there is still a serious power shortage in. Naturally the idea of tapping into EV's batteries for house power was obvious and I believe all the current EV's for Japan offer a 100v AC output (not 110V) for emergency...

Dammm, this is a cute EV! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Reva_charging.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Looks like a Super Deformed toy, like this ...actually, its so small, IT IS!

Reading about the clutter of the dash panel in this sub-index made me comment that it was too complex for what is fundamentally simple form of transportation, and a though of "What would the late Steve Jobs design?" Internal Combustion cars need a starter motor to get the engine running so one...

Ever wonder why the Leaf has an “old style” like gear shifter? (I thought about posting as debate topic, but it is more my wish as a suggestion.) The rational to keep something that looks like a "gear shifter" in Leaf was familiarity to “old fashioned” GAS cars, but to keep a feature of...

Given the limited range of EV's and very few practical charging stations (420v and 220v fast charge only) means pure EV are literally driving on the edge. Anything to increase the "margin of comfort" is gold. Nissan's idea of an smartphone App to monitor and even control aspects of the car is...

Hello all, Been following the Leaf since first announced, signed up and been on Leaf mailing list since day 1. Saw my first Leaf in Tokyo in 2009, long before they hit the US streets. IMHO, I think Hybrids are a travesty to drivers and the environment. The fuel mileage is only a tiny big...
