 Had my 2013 for about 3 months now.I cannot imagine EVER driving an ICE car again.Now, gas powered cars feel crude, rough and loud.The Leaf is smooth and quiet.I feel like I'm driving on air.I love the fact that I am helping to decrease our dependence on foreign oil and that I am not contributing emissions to the environment.(This car was second choice to my unaffordable fantasy car, a TESLA , but I truly couldn't be happier.)Acceleration is not exactly going to wow you when getting up to highway speeds, but it's certainly enough to feel safe merging into highway traffic. I expected an electric car would be VERY sluggish and was pleasantly surprised from the test drive on!
