from The Watt Car EV Podcast Hosted by Phil Royle and Ed Sanchez
Is the Nissan Leaf the little EV compliance car that could? As Nissan advances to the third (and somewhat handsome) third generation of the car, it’s beginning to look like the Leaf may make it after all. We discuss. We also chat about battery swapping a Tesla, Xiaomi outrunning a Rimic Nevera, and more!
