Yes. Where I live it gets cold and the 2013 and later models have better heat options such as all 5 heated seats, heated steering wheel, a battery heater, and a heat pump type cabin heater. I had the chance to buy a 2015 Leaf S with only 4,500miles on Friday for less than $10,000 but the level S doesn't come with the 6.6kW charger nor the DC quick charge port. So that's why I decided on the 2013 level SL.

It has all 12 bars of capacity.
