| What I am saying is the nissan leaf does not have a CVT (or eCVT), unless I am missing something. It doesn’t make sense (for EV). No fully electric vehicle has a transmission, especially a CVT. Hybrids are different, but I am talking about fully electric vehicles (I.e. BEVs), which the nissan leaf is. | |||||

| Pickups in the 1940s used leaf springs in the front. A late model Ford Ranger? I don't think so. I believe the last consumer-grade vehicles that were equipped with front leaf springs were the 1991 Jeep Wagoneer (actually a vehicle that debuted in 1963) and pre-1997 Jeep Wranglers (also an ancient design). Unless maybe you have something like a dump truck nothing current has front leaf springs. | |||||
| Ford Focus Electric vs Nissan Leaf | 34Relevance | 4 years ago | DevinKenyon | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Good day Scotty and the community. I'm on the search for a used electric car because of the astronomical prices that i pay to fuel my car. I'm looking at either a 2013 nissan leaf with about 60,000 miles on it, or a 2014 Ford Focus Electric with about 71,000 miles on it. Out of these two, which is the better buy? I'm leaning more towards the leaf. | |||||

| ... dealer could not know, is that nissan would update its battery replacement policy one year later, shortly after carving off its battery-manufacturing subsidiary, Automotive Energy Supply Corporation to the Chinese Investment firm GSR Capital.

| Yeah I definitely understand the concept of the single drive setup (i own a Prius Prime right now but want to go all electric as my next car) and I appreciate the explanation but I know that nissan CVTs are notorious for problems and premature failure and wasn't sure if due to nissan building their own transmissions from JATCO if the leaf eCVT suffers the same fate as its gas driven CVT counterparts | |||||

| That's news to me, unless they used a suspension I'm not familiar with, they shouldn't have leaf springs in the front end. Old 1940s Jeeps had those, not a modern car. Front leaf springs are very rough riding, that's definitely not what you would expect from a modern truck. The dealership probably doesn’t know what they're talking about, or they're just trying to game with you. | |||||

| Don't buy the leaf, tesla is far better, the leaf is known for poor thermal management. I remember my dad deciding between a Focus Electric and a leaf, he picked the Ford for being cheaper and having better thermal management and he may soon get a Tesla Model 3 for better range. | |||||
| Answer to: Would Nissan prevail w/o Renault? | 32Relevance | 5 years ago | Dan | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Nope. Renault is what keeps nissan alive. nissan is able to leach of Renault (R-N-M ALLIANCE), get modern somewhat reliable engines, get access to good Diesel engines for Europe and the sheer power of Renault’s dealer network. The thing that makes nissan terrible is the CVTs that they design by them selfs under their Jatco division. nissan would not be better off without Renault, as Renault are their only hopes of survival especially when we are talking about car electrification. Renault was amoung the first to produce electric cars, starting with the ... | |||||
| I got screwed over by Nissan | 29Relevance | 5 years ago | GabesPop17 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hey Scotty, I hope you can get to this within the next couple of days. So, I bought a 2020 nissan Rogue around this time last year at BENTON nissan of BESSEMER, AL. When I bought it, it had a little over 32000 miles on it. It costed roughly 22000 dollars after I signed the paperwork. It really wasn't the car I wanted, I originally went to purchase the 2018 Toyota RAV4 that they had because I wanted something reliable. But because of my credit situation at the time, they would only approve the Rogue. I decided to give it a chance, since I really needed a ... | |||||

| ... Issues in first generation were later addressed especially by second generation. The nissan RWD platforms are generally better in terms of reliability than the FWD platforms. That being said I would still avoid the model years 2020-newer since they moved to the 9-speed transmission (the previous 7-speed is less complex and and why mess with something that has already working and had been refined?). I also would avoid the first year (2016), and look for 2017-2019 (in general the newer the better that your budget allows). For list of issues over the years ... | |||||
