Previous generation Leaf? Debatable. I have one. I plotted a trip from the East Bay to Yosemite and the range seemed enough on paper, even accounting for elevation. But in at least one stretch there was a single quick charge station (ChaDeMo) that I could rely on. If that was out of service I would have issues, as even L2 were not plentiful. On Yosemite itself I could find only one L2. So I did not attempt the trip. Current generation Leaf, Bolt, Tesla? The range would be pretty adequate and comfortable. Not sure about long desert stretches, you could have an idea here: https://www.evtripplanner.com/planner/2-8/ https://www.evtripplanner.com/planner/2-8/ Also of note is that a major drawback in the US is the high highway speeds. Drag increases to the speed squared, so going 60mph vs 80mph makes a huge difference. We don't notice as much in internal combustion engines, because a gas tank has so much energy – we may notice in our pockets though.
