The rest of the time, it off unless I am running an experiment.

That makes it far far cheaper than any other option and yeah, 150 is not 200 but at that price, I can live with it. <br /><br />But the real concern is when the free charging ends. Too many per minute fees out there means I need a faster charging car and even the 100 KW (70 KW effective) rate of the LEAF Plus would be a huge boost.

It will be interesting to see how the emergence of the cheaper standard range Tesla Model 3 affects Nissan's pricing and marketing plans for the Leaf as well as how many they gear up to manufacture. Related to that will be where Nissan is with respect to the the amount of federal tax credit the Leaf will be eligible for. My wild prediction for you is that you will that the that a 200 mile plus range Korean EV is likely to be your next car or maybe a Model Y.
