I second much of the advice shared here already, and I would add one thing.

I bought this car 200 miles from home on a day that was 18 degrees F. Let's just say it's good I had plenty of time and a really good friend to take turns with. In the 2016 model year, two additional options became available - Heat pump instead of resistive heat and 30 KWh battery (Not on all models in 2016). It would be worth studying if these options are available in your area, as I have been told they make a big difference in range. If you buy a Leaf, one or more of the groups can share more tips, like using seat warmers to warm people conductively instead of the high cost of physically moving air through the heating system. Good luck, please let us know :-) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
