The Nissan Leaf 40Kwh leasing discussion

No but aren't these cars only 40 or 60?
Yes, facelift cars are 40 or 62kWh.Also just echoing others than the range/efficiency isn't good as I'd hoped. Obviously its winter by the i3 120Ah I had previously (with a slightly bigger battery granted) was noticeably more efficient.

£270 a month overall for a 38kwh Ioniq is very good. I can't see it anywhere for <£300 now.
Bargain offer £335 overall herehttps://www.edfenergy.com/electric-cars/leasing/hy...

Thanks for that, have enquired!https://www.edfenergy.com/electric-cars/leasing/hy...
Had a yellow system fault flash up & stay on the dash this afternoon, just after being splashed by a huge wave of water from a truck coming in the opposite direction.
A bit of googling suggests possibly a faulty radar sensor on the front, likely due to water ingress. Fingers crossed it's just a one off caused by the direction of the water coming across & it'll dry out, but I'm not hopeful.

Hit 1000 miles the other day. Averaged 3.5 but lately I've been averaging 3.7.
Not that I'd ever do this but you should see the difference on range by turning the heater completely off.
All my driving is now always in B mode with e pedal when in traffic which is massively better than any other modes together.

How do I actually get it to 'B', it says D/B when I switch it to DriveAveraged 3.5 but lately I've been averaging 3.7.

Select drive twice basically. Go into to drive, do it again and it changes to b mode. Best setting by far for overall use.
The amount of friction the e pedal causes is crazy. Drive the car with the epedal on at say 40mph, keep your foot in the same position and turn it off, the difference is ridiculous.

Thanks, worked it out myself this morning, does seem to make a difference but most days my commute is only 66 miles each way and I have free charging at work so I can splash out on the power a bit! Best setting by far for overall use.

There's no friction, it just changes the map of the pedal - it has to shift the neutral (i.e. the point between accel and decel) point down so that you have controllability of the additional deceleration. Best setting by far for overall use.

Is this leaf range extender kit any good?

A set of wheel trims and a plastic spoiler isn't it?https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-Leaf-battery-ran...
Doubtful

I just had my Pod Point charger installed but the guy that came out to change my meter to a smart meter refused to change my electric meter as he said it wasn't safe and I needed UK networks to come out and make it safe.
I guess my other option is to switch to a slightly cheaper electric deal as Octopus has no exit fees for the deal I am on.
So instead of £2 to charge, I am currently looking at £6 (maybe £4 a day as I usually have 40% left when I get home).
Anyone advise on an off peak tariff that doesn't require a smart meter install?
