Since its launch in 2010, more than 250,000 award-winning Nissan LEAFs have been sold worldwide. Here are just a short list of the many reasons as to why you should consider purchasing a LEAF as your next car.
They’re cheaper to run…
There are no two ways about it. The Nissan LEAF is cheaper to run than a conventional car. Consider the comparative running costs of a Nissan LEAF versus a diesel or petrol-powered vehicle. Fuel costs for a conventional car average 12 pence per mile, which equates to £1,440 in a year, assuming you drive 12,000 miles. Compare that with a 100% electric, Zero Emissions Nissan LEAF, which can be charged at home or by using any of the growing number of public charging points around the UK (there are now over 10,000 of them). The cost per mile in the Nissan LEAF can be as low as two pence, just £240 over the same year period.
Because petrol stations are overrated…
Alongside the obvious savings, you’ll never be tempted by impulse buys like snacks and lottery tickets again. “Filling up the tank” via an electrical connection at home, or at one of over 10,000 charging points across the country saves time and is more convenient.
Less maintenance than conventional cars…
How? We here you ask… Because a Nissan LEAF electric motor, with over 20 mechanical components less than a conventional counterpart doesn’t need the regular servicing that petrol and diesel cars need. Think of a future with no oil changes, cooling system flushes and transmission servicing. All this alongside never having to replace an air filter, spark plugs or drive belts ever again.
Get up to £4500 in ownership grants…
The government is pulling out all the stops to help make ownership of electrical vehicles easier and cheaper. Alongside up to £4500 ownership grants, you’ll also pay nothing for road tax and if you live in London and regularly drive in the Congestion Charge zone, you’ll be exempt from that too. It’s a win win situation! Most appealing of all is the fact you can run a Nissan LEAF on free electricity by simply charging your Leaf away from home.
