Not perfect for road tripping
I'm a heavy road tripper, and the Nissan LEAF has proved to be a bad choice for me. I have been a Tesla owner all through my life, and I really regret switching to Nissan. The first shortcoming is the limited range. Unlike my Tesla, which provided impressive range during long-distance tours, the LEAF has been a huge letdown in this department. I have to constantly look for charging stations and plan my trips meticulously to ensure the battery power doesn't run out in the middle. The depth and bass of the audio system are also limited.
