I'm looking at the service maintenance for my 2013 Nissan Leaf S model and the scheduled maintenance is:
Every 7.5k miles means tire rotation & a few inspections. $20
Every 15k miles means tire rotation and a whole lot of inspections. $260
This goes steady until 125K miles which requires a: Replace Engine Coolant for $150
Then again at 200k miles.
Should I start dishing out the dough?
There is one bit I'm wondering about:
Inspect engine drive belts
Which engine drive belts are these in the Nissan Leaf??? I thought the leafy didn't have any belts? Other than seat belts of course.... :mrgreen:
For the big 260$ work
I drive 1200 a month so 15000÷1200=12.5 this is only a once a year-ish expense. Not bad.
For the small 20$ work
7500÷1200=6.25 so twice a year.
260+40= 300 usd yearly in maintenance for the leaf?
How does this compare to a gas car maintenance cost?
-edit-
For the fun of it I looked at the maintenance cost for an NV200 and compared it to a leaf. Counted all the maintenance times stuff up to 105k miles and I got:
105k miles worth of maintenance
nv200
13*50 650
4*200 800
2*80 160
1*230
1*350
$2190 Total or $300.34 Per year if you drive 1200 miles per month
105k miles worth of maintenance
leaf
7*20 140
7*230 1610
$1750 Total or $239.99 Per year if you drive 1200 miles per month
BTW: What is
Inspect EV Battery usage report
Is this the # that gets send to nissan to honor your battery replacement if it ever gets below 6 bars?
