I'm thinking about getting a new car and the Leaf has come onto my radar. The problem is I have a 60 mile round trip each day mainly on A roads and motorways. Would it be possible on one charge or am I being an optomist with the range of the car?
If you know Dorset and Hampshire I drive from the outskirts of Wimborne to Romsey using the A31 and M27.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Thank you for all the advice and replies. From what you have said a 60 mile round trip should be no problem.
Next question is I see Leafs for sale that you lease the battery and others where it has been bought out. If I plan to keep the car for at least 5 years and do 15,000 miles a years what would be the best option?
