My 2020 Leaf was rear-ended by a truck, I finally got a chance to get around to posting these pictures. I have a video to go with this, so when I get a chance I'll update this topic with a link too.
To give this some context, I was in the slow lane on the Interstate, following a Tesla actually and traffic had slowed to a stop and go crawl. Sometime after that, got hit from the rear at high speed by a truck. Lifted the back of the Leaf up a little and gave me whip-lash and a back-ache. After a check-up by the Ambulance and Fire Department and some hours of police reports until it was dark, was finally able to to drive away after it was all said and done. Guess who wasn't able to drive away?
The damage to the Leaf is actually more than it appears as all that stuff down at the bottom is broken, the trailer hitch is bent down, inwards, the bumper is titled down from the body, etc. But you wouldn't never suspect it from how it looks on the surface. :lol:
