Unloading Our New Nissan LEAF + First drive [HD]

Love it, Love it, LOVE IT!! You guys have produced a wonderfully entertaining video, I wish the Leaf had a 150+ mile range because my 88 mile round trip is cutting it too close, but it sure would go nicely with my solar panels :) Thanks for sharing!!

Nicely done!

First Leaf I've seen in the snow, how's the heating? Does it affect the range a lot?

Also what camera did you use, the quality is quite nice.

Congrats on the leaf!

@b00rk The heating is great! It warms the car up very quickly. Which was quite a surprise. On average, the heating system takes off 10% of your current mileage, oddly enough. So when you have a 100 mile range and turn it on your mileage will drop to about 90 miles (until you turn it back off again). But if you have 20 miles left in your range and you turn it on, that mileage will only drop to about 17-18. I used the Canon XH-A1s. It's Sweet! And so is this CAR! Sorry for the late response. :)
