I was talking to Jeangenie this morning and she is loving her new Leaf, She has done almost 15,000 miles with it, and all she has had to pay for is screen wash fluid. She is able to charge it, for free, at her work, and has never needed to use her home charger. She says it is a joy to drive. She says that once you get used to the one pedal operation you hardly ever need to touch the brake pedal at all.
I asked her what range she gets but she has no idea. It has never been so low that she has felt concerned.
Her husband is enjoying the Type R, but he too is impressed with the EV and intends replacing the Type R with an EV of some sort. A Tesla is his current first choice, but he realises that a lot will change over the next two years so he will see what is out there in 2022, when the Type R is due to be replaced.
