Well given that the Leaf has let me down, I'll turn my attention to the next potential "next car" for me.
(note the "pre-orders starting" in this link is only for South Korea)
Hyundai starts pre-orders for Kona Electric - Push EVs
40kwh and 60kwh versions. 60kwh should be somewhere around the price of the 40kwh Leaf.
40kwh =150 miles
60kwh = 230 miles
Even the 40kwh would do me IF the charging was faster. And given that the Ioniq already charges much faster than any Leaf, and 150kW CCS chargers are expected to arrive in the next year, the Kona could have a major advantage in that area.
Now it just remains to be seen if Hyundai have learned their lesson and manage to get sufficient numbers of this car into the market.
