[QUOTE="soberups, post: 807810, member: 14668"] We are actually considering that, although she is a bit leery of a car that can only go about 100 miles before requiring a 3-8 hr recharge. The Chevy Volt would be better in that regard; it can only go about 35 miles on the battery alone, but for longer trips it has a gasoline powered generator that gives it 300+ mile range. But the Volt is at least $10,000 more than the Leaf and since we already have a diesel car that is ideal for road trips, the shorter range of the Leaf really wouldnt be an issue. In any case, it will be at least another year or two before either of these cars is widely available so we will have plenty of time to weight the pros and cons of each. [/QUOTE]
