What Our Members Are Saying about the Available Features of the 2013 Nissan LEAF

2013 Nissan LEAF Available Features: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric
1-speed automatic FWD		 Nissan included a DC fast charge, using the CHAdeMO protocol, on the SL model before this was a SAE standard. SAE has now standardized on another protocol now leaving this and all the LEAF owners with something they will probably never use. There are very few CHAdeMO charging stations in the US. see full Nissan LEAF review
