I'VE NEVER DRIVEN AN EV BEFORE. HERE'S WHAT I THINK AFTER MY FIRST TWO WEEKS WITH A NISSAN LEAF!

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles a first-time EV driver's two-week experience with the 2025 Nissan Leaf, highlighting its affordability and ease of use for beginners. The reviewer found the Leaf's basic features, quiet operation, and Apple CarPlay integration appealing. However, the experience was significantly hampered by the slow Level 1 home charging, which took an excessive amount of time (up to 36 hours for a full charge), and the frustratingly unreliable and inconvenient public DC fast charging infrastructure. While the reviewer eventually grew to appreciate the e-Pedal for its energy regeneration, the overall conclusion is that the Nissan Leaf is a worthwhile EV for those with reliable home charging, but its practicality diminishes significantly for those relying on public charging due to its slow charging speeds and infrastructure issues.
