When it was launched in 2011 the original Nissan Leaf was a true EV pioneer that reignited consumer interest in electric cars. In 2021 an early Leaf, either with its 24kWh battery or the later 30kWh unit, can make for an excellent used car. The range (about 50-60 miles in early cars) isn’t anything like what you’ll get in a modern EV, but with prices starting from around £4,500, it’s a potentially affordable option for those who do limited mileage and have access to a charger.
In this CarGurus UK review Vicky Parrott revisits the Mk1 Leaf to see how it’s stood the test of time, and speaks to Martin Miller, founder of electric car specialists EV Experts, to learn about the market for these cars.
