I had no leaf experience, looked at juke and versa to get an idea how roomy the leaf is. It was kind of a bit of a gamble.
I would have to agree pure electric vehicles are too expensive. We're talking something to the tune of $30,000 to $45,000 for an economy car with limited range or very long charger dwell times.
Then you still have to have a place or places to charge it on 240v power.
Which could cost even more if you have to hire an electrician, a little if you're just having an additional circuit installed, a few thousand if your house electrical is outdated or your panel is over loaded and you have to have it upgraded.
Or you could charge on 120v power, very very slowly.
