The Versa is a bit smaller than the Leaf; but the regular Prius is virtually identical in size to the Leaf.

Another angle is getting solar panels installed for zero money down and running your Leaf on that energy. This cuts the cost of what you pay for electricity by about half. So, you *save* money and still can drive, so effectively you drive for free.
