The Nissan Leaf 40Kwh leasing discussion
Discussion
I recently had an amazing deal with Express Vehicles Contract . I do not know how I managed to bag it, but I am now leasing a Nissan Leaf Tekna, 40kw in red. I have 6000 miles per annum for 2 years and am paying £218 per month including the service package. I absolutely love the car, the only negative is going to be giving it back after 2 years

Was your experience with Express Vehicles Contract absolutely amazing? Would you recommend them wholeheartedly and urge all readers to waste no time in availing themselves of the incredible deals on offer, whilst enjoying old-fashioned first-class service?

Not very happy with the range on this car.
Seems my daily 40ish mile commute is using between 60-70 miles of range.
Normal driving in eco mode, heater on lowest setting at around 21 degrees and just heated seat on.
Averaging about 3.1kwh or whatever it is.
Are you accelerating in moderation, avoiding using the foot brake, and keeping under 70mph?Seems my daily 40ish mile commute is using between 60-70 miles of range.

4 miles per kwh should be do-able without too much compromise.
Worth checking your tyre pressures as well.

It's always in Eco mode, I can run faster than it accelerates.4 miles per kwh should be do-able without too much compromise.

I only have to use the brake to stop quickly which is maybe once per journey.
I just go with the traffic but normally no more than 70mph as the M1 car park doesn't allow that sort of speed.

I run mine in B mode instead of Eco. Might be worth a try?
I don't even know what that is but i'll look into it. 
Gives you increased regeneration 'engine braking', without the painfully dead throttle pedal of Eco mode.

When you put the gearbox into Drive, and you get the large 'D' on the dash, repeat the same movement and you'll get into 'B' mode.

Cool, i'll try it on the way home.Gives you increased regeneration 'engine braking', without the painfully dead throttle pedal of Eco mode.
The only thing eco mode does is limit your ability to add any throttle - and if you're in eco and you need to add throttle, you end up flooring it and using more power, instead of less.
It might actually be more economical to just leave it off and drive normally - ECO mode frustrates the life out of me and I never use it as it just makes the car less responsive and unpleasant to drive IMO.

oh ok fair comment....looks like I'm an employee of ECV....luckily I work with animals not cars. First time posts that say nice things about businesses are generally not legit, so apologies for jumping on yours.
