I just saw a Local new report about the Leaf and they ended w/ " and it's 8k cheaper the it's closes competition the Chevy Volt".. That's what the masses are told a will more then likely believe. a sad fact..
It's price competitive when leasing...and DG has illustrated why you don't just sell it for a dollar because "you're loosing money either way".

As far as the news report...Chevy has practicality and pleasing aesthetics on their side. The two are NOT in the same league besides mode of propulsion...at least, not imo.
