30kwh Nissan Leaf | Range Test & Review

[@jamessjoynson4388]

Hi Ryan, I've just bought a second hand 30kwh leaf, had it four days now, so far so good, plus no off street parking. Relying on public charging only, luckily in Scotland so free vend, been iced twice, down charger once, still living the ev dream, many thanks to you, ev man, Ian and James cooke, cheers.

[@EVOpinion]

James S Joynson so pleased it’s working out for you. You have a great network in Scotland but I think you’ll agree most people could own a EV without home charging. Glad I played a small part in your decision 😁👍

[@scottm5425]

One of the vids that's convinced me of getting one too. Being delivered next week and funnily enough looks identical to that car. Everyone in the family is very excited. Thanks for taking the time to record it.

[@Ambot51]

Same problem here! We fight over our (purchased second hand) 2016 30kwh Leaf. The perfect errand runner/kid transporter/city car.

[@JiltedMonkey]

Just bought a 2017 30KwH Tekna after trialling an i3 for 3 months. Looking forward to it! Great content!

[@EVOpinion]

Paul Endersby having just driven a i3 for 3 days I think you’ll be very happy with your choice. It’s not as good looking or exciting as the i3 but it’s a more relaxed drive.

[@iKaGe01]

I love the old gen vs the new ones. Even the look of them. A demo 30kWh Tekna I used for 4 days managed about 100-110 miles. I even think the acceleration is good enough. Feels faster than 11 seconds. They're still about 15k for a good Tekna though

[@Ocean4Life]

Owning both the 30kw tekna and the newer 40kw I absolutely agree the 30 is a great car - but the 40 is in a completely different league. So much that I would stretch the budget and upgrade your 24kw to a 40 instead. It drives better, has much better range, feels a lot more up to date, and has more room.

[@13thCP]

The red looks the best! I've been able to drive the 2019 Leaf but haven't been able to drive the first gen body style yet. The 30kwh leaf is top of my list to replace my old Hyundai Sonata ICE. Just a few more paychecks and I'll be able to say goodbye to ICE forever!

[@MrAndrew941]

No it's not worth upgrading the 24kWh to the 30kWh. It is worth upgrading the ICE to the 30kWh.

[@LC-km9kp]

Just purchased a 2017 leaf 30kwh with 6.6kw onboard charger we could of saved 5k and got a 2015 24kw with the 3.3kw onboard charger but no warranty on the battery compared to 4.5 years warranty remaining on the 2017 so that’s with the 6.6kw onboard charger made it the better decision even if it lost 20% battery degradation after the warranty it would still be like having a new 24kwh so 65-80miles range making a ideal second car or commuting to work

[@spacedoutET]

I got a leaf 30kwh 6 months ago now. I knew virtually nothing before it. I didnt want to trade my zafira in as tbh, i needed the room and i couldnt risk if i didnt like it. 6 months later, do i regret ? No way. It does everything i needed. I just keep my fingers crossed it continues this way.

[@retrodog63]

I'm still getting by on the 2015 S with the 24 kwh pack. But my drive to work is just 7 miles each way. So I'm the ideal user for one of those. One of my favorite cars ever. The thing I really hate about the Tesla is all the emphasis that they've put on performance. I think that has really clouded the whole focus/view on the EV thing. People should be talking more about how much more refined these cars feel over and above an ICE car. They redefine "smooth". I have the Leaf and a 2016 Volt Premier. I just don't enjoy driving ICE cars very much any more. And that includes my BMW Z4 and a Jeep Liberty/Cherokee.

[@peterowen4456]

Very helpful. I like the no compromise testing so you get a real world comparison with an ICE.

[@jamesblack2719]

I have a 30 kWh leaf and I commute about 85 miles each day, but I can charge it up at work using solar. My wife has a 2016 leaf and like you she uses it primarily. Our minivan is used when she has long drives or to bring recycling to dispose of.

[@be236]

When I was looking for an EV last year, I got the 30kWh LEAF 2017 base trim and so glad I got it over the 24kWh LEAF... it was about a $5k difference in price, but the range of this LEAF makes up for that $5k... Had I gotten the 24kWh LEAF, I think I would have a lot more range anxiety for my driving routine than this one. My average efficiency is about 4mi/kWh.

[@SiEffen]

My PCP was reviewed and the upshot was that I was offered a 2017 30kWh instead of my 2015 24kWh. It's cost me a little more on the PCP but it's made a huge difference. I needed to charge daily in the old Leaf but the newer one only every couple of days. I don't make many longer journeys (>100 miles) but for me the range concerns I had have all but gone. And I agree, whilst it's the same car, the infotainment system feels a lot more up to date.

Another good video. 👍 A colleague at work had a 24kw leaf for a few months. He got rid of it, claiming the range simply wasn't what he expected. He tried to talk me out of going for a leaf... However, I am still interested, a 30kw would be fine for me. I am tempted though to wait and see how much the MG ZS will be here in the UK...

Over the weekend I put the roof down on my convertible BMW and went to the middle of nowhere in Norfolk, it was beautiful countryside and great driving roads. I did wonder when I parked up how I would do this in an electric car without being paranoid about how much battery was left. The fact is I was in the middle of nowhere but the diesel still had a few hundred miles of range.

[@EVOpinion]

David Viner I totally understand that and no matter how much I or any other EV owner trys to explain how it’s nothing to worry about until you own one it doesn’t make sense. But what kind of EV advocate would I be if it didn’t try? 😁. At the point you though that where were you (closest town or village) and how many miles in total did you drive that day?

[@davidviner4932]

@@EVOpinion I would say around 250 miles in total, some spirited driving with the roof down so not much in the way of good aerodynamics. I often drive across France, usually covering around 250 to 300 miles in a day. The diesel seems to be good for more than 650 miles on these long runs so I never worry about being able to fill up as there will always be a petrol station nearby. I guess if I had an electric car I could always keep a spare battery in the boot

[@EVOpinion]

David Viner you really shouldn’t worry then. There are lots of rapid chargers in France and you would never cover 600 miles in one hit so just charge when you stop 😁👍

[@davidviner4932]

@@EVOpinion there is never one at my stop over so epic fail I'm afraid, I am not going to take twice as long to get to the South of France because I have to sit and wait while the battery charges when I could be back at the hotel, the hotel doesn't have a charger or would want me to bring long cables to their low power electricity points causing problems for other guests however as I've already filled up with diesel for a good 600 plus miles all is good, do you understand now???

[@mikedelphine1216]

David Viner ...You obviously totally missing the point of owning an EV... Very little adjustment is needed, the advantages are making Electric a ‘NO BRAINER’! The amazing simplicity of an Electric Drive Train alone will be worth the switch. The money you spend on fuel is prohibitive. Let alone the fact that you burn away a valuable Natural Resource... Oil is a Finite Resource and will desperately be needed for much more important things in the infinite future! It’s not nice to be so selfish/inconsiderate!

[@sanjayambwani373]

Hi I am from India. its a typical country. Evs have just launched . I have bought 30.4 kw called tata nexon. Tata motors owns jaguar and Landover brand. They launched it for 20000 dollars. Its 129 ps very peppy ev. I feel if you don't give sudden acceleration and do content 50 to 60 miles you can easily do 200km with 10 percent reserve. Yes we have to cool in tropical climate so air-condition would reduce 10 percent range. Since its a budget ev they fixed the optimum regen. You cannot change. But you have sports mode. Your video was very informative 👌

[@bigtoptech3222]

I love my 24Kwh 2014, but I do wish I could have found a 30Kwh when I was looking for a leaf.

[@cavarabdic]

Great videos. However, I am looking at 2016, 2017 Leafs to buy in the US now and very, very few don't have considerable battery degradation. What I mean by that is 2-3 bars lost after 30K miles. Scary. Not sure if people are getting rid of the bad ones or what, but is really hard to find one with a good battery.

[@davidg6370]

If you are trading in your #24, you'll probably be surprised by its current value. That may make your figures look better. Oh, the #30 Rapid charges faster for longer than the #24 as well. It does add heat to the battery however how many times will you need to multiple rapid charge in a day without the you / the car taking a rest?

[@EVOpinion]

David G it’s rare I rapid charge more than once in a day so that doesn’t concern me 😁👍

[@leaderdesslok9540]

Long term range is my biggest concern. I have the option to buy my 2016 30kWh LEAF SL for $12,900, but I'm having serious second thoughts since moving to San Diego from Seattle last August. The car has 23,000 mi on it, and according to LeafSpy the battery state of health is currently at 89.3%. I purchased it roughly 33 months ago and 23K miles seems pretty low considering the SOH of the battery. I love the car, but I worry that in the warmer climate of San Diego it's going to degrade even faster. Even if I average a loss of 10% every 36 months, I could be looking at a range of around 80 mi in three more years. And, given that my current commute is 67 mi round trip I'm not sure what to do exactly. I'm considering other EVs with active battery cooling, OR just buying the car and selling it in three more years.

[@crazydayzz]

I only do about 400-500 miles a month, currently got a 2019 clio. Can do a straight part ex for a 2015 24kw leaf from Nissan dealer........ is it worth swapping

[@sheetalshah2327]

Really interesting stuff Ryan. My wife and I like this car and came close to buying one last year. However the range was the ultimate showstopper and we opted to hold fire and wait for the next wave of EVs to come through in2019/20. Perhaps it would be worth waiting a while longer. There might be a new EV that's right for you and if not they could push done the prices of used ones.

[@EVOpinion]

Sheetal Shah absolutely. What’s nice to know is the range of the 30kwh would work for us so any extra is a bonus. I would be happy with a 40kwh Leaf and have no issues with the BMS so perhaps a wait for that to become affordable would be a good option.

[@sheetalshah2327]

Love the local scenery!!! Good ol Dorset. I travel over 100miles a day, env200 40kwh is brilliant 😃

[@spacedoutET]

When u charge from low, how many kWh does it put in to 100%. Reason I ask is I bought a 30kwh leaf and noticed it says about 24kwh to 100%. 🙄. Is there suppose to be 5-6kwh reserved when it's low. Just seems odd. I did a test run and got 4.5miles per kwh and I ended up at 99.3miles with 8% left. But if it were a full 30kwh doing those mpkwh, it would be alot more miles. Even a 30kwh doing 4.0 miles per kwh should give 120 By the way, it only had 4000 miles on clock, so was pretty new at a 67 plate. It's always been like this since I bought it. I've asked to test drive a 40kwh, to see what I achieve. Don't want nissan selling 30kwh battery's as a 24 and a 40 as a 30 lol

[@bluetideuk]

I really want an ev. I quite like the newer leaf. I feel even though an older leaf would do my commute I'd be relying on public chargers as we only have on street parking at our flat and not sure how often i would be guaranteed somewhere to charge without going out the way . I know we have a fair few chargers in Salisbury most the park and rides have one so something I could charge up once or twice a week. Need to have a good look into affordability I'd be happy to spend more on an ev if I'm saving the equivalent in running costs.

I would do the same test with an Ioniq. I drove at 70 mph in winter to my parents (100 miles away) in a 30 kWh Leaf. I had to recharge at 82 miles because the dashes appeared.

When they come down to £10,000 used then I'll likely get one.

[@RainCity3rd]

exactly. At least you have much better (lower) used prices in the UK than the USA. I'll run my 2008 honda fit into the ground, the longer it lasts the better options i'll have in the used market for a good EV as they are improving so quickly year over year at the moment. The depreciation on these things are pretty poor accordingly as each year older one is giving up a bunch of features. For the clever used buyer though this can be good for us looking to pick up deals to hang onto. These EVs will last longer than the average ICE car so I'm super happy to pick up a nice 3-5 year old EV just like I have always done with ICE cars over the years. The sweet spot in the depreciation curve.

Pity the Nissan dealers have such an aweful reputation for service

Yeah, I've got one. Pity it's so ugly but hey ho.

That view splits allot of people, I haven't got one but I do actually prefer the old leaf to the new one. To me it's an iconic look, it is a ev classic look, if you could drop a 60kwh battery into the original cars I would be in heaven!

Keep the 24kw Ryan P/ex the Ice car Buy the 30kw It’s only money 🤷🏻‍♂️

The battery pack on your leaf only degraded 10% because you live in a cold and damp place. Otherwise, it would be 75% or worse
