My District Council has leased two Nissan Leaf electric cars as a contribution to a cleaner planet. Nissan calls it a zero emission vehicle with a range of 109 miles. The 'zero emission' is questionable, as is the range. After two months the cars’ batteries seem to have deteriorated. The cars are used daily, six days a week, mostly using the ECO setting. After recharging from 6pm to 8am the next morning, the digital reading shows less than 90 miles available. After driving less than 40 miles the reading drops to below 10 miles. Can we sue Nissan for false advertising? Are other Leaf drivers experiencing similar problems? Has anyone bought a Leaf with their own money? Should the Government continue to subsidise each Leaf to the tune of £5000?
