AI Market Summary

**EV running costs beat petrol rivals by a mile** — electricity cheaper than fuel, zero road tax, minimal servicing. Sweet spot for Dublin commuters.
**Battery degradation is the elephant in the room** — expect 5–10% capacity loss at this mileage; some cars show sharper drops. Range anxiety real on older packs.
**12V auxiliary battery fails predictably around 8 years old** — watch for power steering or infotainment cutting out. Budget €150–250 for replacement before purchase.
**Check door seals and floor carpets for damp** — water ingress through aging seals causes mold and electrical gremlins. Inspect both front footwells and under rear seats.
**Priced fairly but trending down** — market cooling slightly year-on-year. At €5,995 median, you're not overpaying, but demand (13 active) suggests no urgency to rush.

Reliability & Safety Recalls

Nissan Leaf 2017

Reliability

4/5

The 2017 Nissan Leaf is a dependable early-generation EV with proven battery longevity in Irish/UK climates; owners report low running costs and minimal mechanical issues. The 24 kWh battery holds up reasonably well but capacity loss is noticeable by 8–10 years. Strong value for second-hand purchase if battery health is verified, though charging infrastructure was still developing in 2017.

Known issues

Battery capacity degradation: 24 kWh packs lose 5–10% capacity over 100,000 km in typical conditions; some report 20–30% loss on older examples
12V auxiliary battery failure: original lead-acid batteries often fail around 8 years; causes loss of power steering and infotainment
Water ingress into cabin through door seals: damp floors and fogging reported on higher-mileage examples
Brake dust and pad wear: regenerative braking reduces mechanical wear but front pads still need occasional service
Onboard charger (OBC) overheating on rapid charges: rare but documented, especially in warm conditions
CHAdeMO charging port corrosion and intermittent connection failures in wet climates

Good for

City and suburban commuting: 135 miles WLTP range perfectly suited to daily Irish/UK driving
Low maintenance: no oil changes, spark plugs, or transmission fluid—only brake fluid and coolant checks
Cheap electricity: 12–14p/kWh to charge vs. €1.50/litre fuel equivalent
Quiet, refined driving with instant torque and responsive handling
