Hi all, In Autocar magazine of 29 July 2020 a reader asked "could you suggest an affordable EV for my daily commute of 90 miles, most of which is on the motorway? I would be able to charge the car at home but not at work". The recommendation "your best shot is a Nissan Leaf - specifically the 30 kWh version from 2016 onwards, which should easily cover more than 100 miles. However you'll need around £11K."
Just wondered if 30kWh Leaf drivers would agree with that recommendation (all year round at motorway speeds). I have a 2011 Leaf (which is 24kWh but has 2 capacity bars missing so has perhaps 80% of original capacity). I would count on 30 miles max range in winter, even less at motorway speeds.
