    The Leaf is presently at 2.8M

    People who can afford a Leaf are "sosy." I don't think they care what others think

    as for the "other people" who want's exclusive parking... they're using a PWD card

    I don't understand the hype with this one.

    Dati may nagdala ng Nissan Leaf sa isang car meet at pinagkaguluhan.
    I think it's the novelty. But other than that, I dunno, it looks mediocre.

    its new... its not common

    remember when the Picanto was new? or the Jazz?

    remember when someone brought a Coolray for the first time in the office and showed everyone that it can park by itself

    May lakas loob kaya mekaniko sa atin dito to convert current ICE cars to EV or e-Power?

    Just like what they did to taxis with LPG tank.

    i did one better.
    i parked at the mall's PWD-reserved slot.
    the gaard had started walking toward me when he saw my healthy-looking torso exit from the driver's door, but stopped in his tracks, when i brought out my aluminum crutch.
    kaka-tanggal lang nang cast sa left leg ko, and i still had to hobble along using a crutch.

    OT.

    definitely possible but a lot of work and not cheap. just keep the old engine for stencil purposes. problem is they'll ask you to turn on the engine during emissions test hahaha

    only EVs that makes sense in philippine setting are the minis.

    there's no hype. leaf is considered one of the cr*ppy ones coz it doesn't have proper battery cooling

    as for teslas the hype is real. but isnt' a good fit for philippines, probably never will be kasi 3rd world forever tayo

    Rather than the Leaf, I think the Ariya "makes more sense" since it has active cooling and is a crossover which has "more demand". But, full EVs which have 300+kms range when we don't have a rapid charger network are pointless as of now. For PH setting that is city driving conditions, a range between 150kms to 200kms for daily weekday commutes "works well" and can be "trickle charged" at home to maintain a "good enough" battery float" every night (Can't remember if Meralco still offers those "off peak" electricity rates that you could take advantage of. And on the weekends, you could fully charge the EV while you use your ICE weekend out of town car.

    Toyota/Lexus Hybrids make a lot of sense if you are using the vehicle for both City and Highway settings. While E-Power makes a lot of sense for daily rush hour commutes. I do hope we can expect to see more of the e-Power lineup or equivalent offered in our market, specifically the Xtrail e-Power. But I don't think the hybrids are tariff exempt, as per my understanding only BEV are covered, but do correct me if I am wrong. Also curious about the Innova Hycross/Hybrid. Hoping it can be priced in the 1.5m php region but it is unlikely with how the Corolla Cross Hybrid is already priced.

    So if zero na, meaning 1.9m na dapat price ni Leaf?
    Parang tumugma ng kunti computation ko last january 2023 ng price slash ng Leaf.

    Hindi naman siguro, since 2021 naman unit makukuha ng bumibili ng Leaf ngayon.
    Isipin nalang nila na may 2 yrs depreciation yung makukuhang unit ng bumibili ngayon ng Leaf.

    I think most of the people who bought a leaf doesn't car too much of the money involved and but if the few who are then they are cooked.

    How much do you think the resale value of the 2021 Nissan Leaf today? no one would buy it at 2M when you can get a brand new one at that price, highest i would think is 1.8M if they are lucky; realistically around 1.6M.
    Thats a 1M loss in a span of 2 years.

    Now if the Nissan Leaf becomes Popular and demand skyrockets and Nissan hoards the Leaf like what Toyota is doing to some of its popular models then it would mean that theoretically you could sell the 2021 Nissan Leaf for around or near the SRP price of a new one.

    Whoever bought one early, they definitely could afford the SRP price.

    Of course, trying to achieve ROI, that is a different thing.

    The Nissan Leaf is an EV with design issues. Starting with the battery pack without thermal management.
