I find it amusing that you were complaining about torque steer, my 2001 Nissan Sentra had horrible torque steer.  Apparently Nissan just can't figure out how to fix it.

I used to drive Subarus before my 15 year sojourn with Leafs.  I really missed the 4WD in the winter.  Leafs would do OK but they torque steer like crazy when you accelerate.  This new car has none of that and should be great in the snow like all Subarus are.

Well, I’ve got 2 Subies, a 2014 and a 2022.  Both internal combustion engine though.

I would say ICE but that has a different connotation now.

Sadly, no tax credits.  This is a one year old 2024.  Used by their service department as a loaner.  5000 miles.  200 mile range.  I like it much more than the Leaf.  Acceleration is great.  Much better lane tracking.

Is it the 2026 model with the longer range?  I’m assuming it’s almost identical to a Toyota bZ?

Did you get an EV tax credit?  Those expired a month ago, didn’t they?  I guess like renewable energy, EVs are still desirable even without govt incentives now.

Nissan threw their hands up and said they could not see anything wrong.

So now I am driving a demo unit that I bought from Subaru that had 5000 miles.

Soltera.  Loving it.
