Eh, I'm not sure the Leaf is the future for most people. Based on what I've heard from Leaf owners, even a commute of 35 miles can be iffy depending on travel conditions. And even if your Leaf can make the trip today, common levels of battery degradation on the Leaf will place that commute out of your range within a couple of years (the users at mynissanleaf.com estimate that a battery can be expected to lose about 10% of its capacity after one year, 15% after two years and 26% after five years under moderate conditions).
