Nissan Leaf News

A single range figure doesn't always accurately convey how far an EV can actually travel, or if it will fit your life.

It's a carryover year for Nissan's original electric car, while the company preps for an Ariya in its future.

The Nissan Leaf, Hyundai Ioniq Electric, and Chevy Bolt EV lead the EV deals, while discounts apply to the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, Toyota Prius Prime, and Camry Hybrid.

Partly it's price, and although there are more Tesla Model S cars in the U.S. than Nissan Leafs, Model S owners hold onto them for much longer.
