I heard they did not invent anything new, just licensing the technology from Toyota.

Just buy a Toyota. Why have two of their countries companies make money.

I’ll just buy a VW Jetta. I can buy a lot of gas with the $8000 difference in price.

It won’t “cost” $25,000. It will cost far more than that. It’s just that part of the cost will be picked up by the Feds.

Does anyone know how often the battery needs to be replaced? Cost? Disposal problems?

With Obama telling us household electricity is going to be more and more scarce and costly, why the hell is the FedGuv promoting eletric cars with big rebates? Has everyonbe gone nut, including me?

If we can be forced to buy Obama’s Healtcare; then we can be forced to buy whatever car he tells us to.

Ugly, very limited range, too expensive . . . what's not to love?

If this Leaf is targeted at urban and suburbanites, where would a city-dweller plug their car in? I don't see any outlets by the street curbs and most parking lots don't have them either.

Time to be the answer guy, since I’ve worked with these things before.

1) Yes, it has an air conditioner. Running it heavily should drop range 10-15%. There are many things that can affect range, both positively and negatively, including speed, aggressiveness, temperature, and terrain.
