If they would style it to look like a normal car, or offer a model that does, say like their Altima I would seriously give it consideration.

The Leaf offers the range necessary for my daily commute, 53 miles. It just doesn't do it in the looks department. Now a coupe would be a sweet ride, provided it doesn't look odd.



If they styled it like a regular car, they might not sell as many, or for as much. See: conspicuous conservation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conspicuous_conservation)


The Rav4 EV looks like a Rav4 (not a sedan, but not obviously EV). Slightly longer range, higher price than a Leaf, lower than a Tesla.
