Yep, I bought a 2 year old one with 19k miles for $8,500.
Wow, is that a normal price though for a 2 year old Leaf? Was it so cheap simply because they depreciate that much?
I imagine much of it would still be under warranty too as well no?
They were fairly cheap to begin with. A new battery is like 6k so that’s s big chunk of the price drop. If you can deal with old battery though you are golden.
Is there a catch to this? I know that Leaf batteries aren't liquid cooled which degrades them a lot quicker than liquid cooled batteries, but still that's an absurdly good deal.
Might just be the fact that they are quickly getting dated, especially the models with less than 100 miles of range new. Like back when you upgraded your computer every 18 months.
In 4-5 years tour range is half if rated. Half that in winter. Should get you to the grocery store :)
No catch. A 2015 base model with fast charger option. Bought it in 2017. A ton of these 2015 were coming off 2 year leases in 2017, and I bought it off a guy who re-sells then from auctions.
So I wonder what he got it for at auction?
jesus christ the us market is amazing.
(yea yea there are trade offs)
