2012 Nissan Leaf Hatchback SL 4dr Hatchback (electric DD)
Electric Wonder
 The Leaf has great acceleration up to about 40 mph, because of the high torque of the electric drive, it is only two wheel drive but feels like four wheels drive, maybe because of large wide tires (55 series) and a low center of gravity, Batteries under floorboard have a lot of weight, so it really hugs the road. Keeps the car about forty mph in ECO mode, (slower mode, slower acceleration ) should get you 150+ mile range. It really begins to use up the juice over 50 mph and by 60 to 70mph range is only about 75. Frost on inside if left outside is a problem requiring defrosting before starting out.It is a really about town car. Most charging stations appear to charge $3 for a charge.
