    240km EPA range. That's disappointing :(

    6kW charging is an optional extra? Surely not just 3.3kW charging as standard???

    0-60 too

    110kw aint much good if its 200kg heavier than the old Leaf

    Pretty terrible presentation so far


  • Posts: 12,708 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I didn't hear anything about range except 400 Km Japanese cycle.

    Nothing about Kwh.....


  • Posts: 12,708 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    That's it ? seriously ? for Fu1K sake what a joke, I certainly won't be buying this pile of crap, not until at least until they have more Kwh.

    More power and battery Kwh for 2018 ??? that's it ? Fuc!ers ! ! !


  • Posts: 12,708 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]

    Those are details for the japanese market and don't apply to the european market.

    2018-nissan-leaf-1.jpg

    Specs from insideevs:
    leaf-17-18.jpg

    150 mi according to google is 241.4km
    motor power 30kW above the current leaf
    torque (320Nm) increased by 26%
    weight increases by 9kg
    $690 cheaper base price in the US market
    Propilot only offered for the top two trims as part of the "tech package"
    Chademo rapid charging of the 40kWh to 80% in 40 mins ("up to 60kW" for the 40kWh)
    0-100km/h in 9.8sec (down from 11.3 official, 15% improvement)
    60-100km/h 30% faster
    OTA updates "not yet" "being worked on"
    35 millimeters longer, 10 mm higher, 20 mm wider, 5mm lower centre of gravity
    front track the same, rear track gains 20mm
    Cd 0.28
    Somewhat better interior materials to give a more "premium feel"
    65L bigger boot
    as expected european leaf will use Type 2 for AC charging
    battery thermal management system (cooling from the A/C during rapid charging like the eNV200)
    CarPlay and Android Auto

    InsideEVs confirms two variants, 40 & 60kWh with the 60kWh "e-Plus" providing over 350km on the EPA cycle and due for release second half of 2018.

    I didn't get that the top speed is limited to 80 Mph.

    But either way, Im not getting a updated leaf based on that seriously poor presentation, seriously , WTF ? I keep wondering if I'm dreaming or drank too much wine ?


  • Posts: 12,708 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Disappointing isn't the word, I'm gutted ! I foolishly had high hopes for this Leaf, now I have to keep my 24 Kwh for another year or 2 FU!K you Nissan !!!!!

    Not even a hint of DC charging speed etc. Useless joke !

    Elon must be laughing

    This doesn't have a hope in the US, its nearly the same price as the Model 3

    I didnt fall for the Tesla hype before but i do now

    They are so far ahead its crazy

    Think they have to be taken very seriously now


  • Posts: 12,708 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    That and the fact this Leaf still has 0 form of battery cooling for the hot climates of the U.S......

    Yes, tesla much be having some party now !

    $5k cheaper than the model 3. And with the federal tax credit being phased out for Tesla and not Nissan yet by March 2019 it could be $12.5k cheaper for many buyers.

    Nice looking car, but I don't think its enough for me to buy one.

    I like the looks and I like the extra power/torque figures. But "only" an extra 40 miles range, 3.3kW charger, and I'll have to change my tethered home charge point? Will give it a skip I'd say.

    Will probably use it as a stick to try get a (near) new 30kWh SVE/Tekna with 6.6kW charger for cheaper.

    You're not buying a car based on a poor presentation?

    That's either serious principles you have, or really good wine!

    Complete disappointment for me. Lazy redesign inside. 150 mile realistic range. Promises of more to come (whoop de do). 

    Only plus points are that it looks a lot better outside and the price should stay around the same. 

    It's Tesla and Hyundai's game to lose now.
