Carwings (Nissan EV online services) would indicate that fleetwide average is about 3.9 miles/ KWH, I'm typically in the 4.2-4.6 zone, but some are over 10.
It's not a ton cheaper to fuel than my TDI, but the Leaf is so nice to be in and everyone loves the thing. If you remove the environmental benefits the economic ones aren't that significant coming from an efficient car. Also, I pick up quite a bit of free KWH, and I don't remember ever getting free Diesel.
