To date, the most economical electric car is the Nissan Leaf. The Leaf has held this title for over a decade. Most early adopters found that the Leaf was perfect for short commutes. As electric car popularity grew, the 100 miles of range available in the Leaf wasn’t enough and led to a phenomenon called “range anxiety.”
The electric car industry responded to this lack by making advancements in battery design, adding more miles per charge. Now EVs like the Nissan Leaf is better than ever. Take a look at the most
