Where did you get that deal for a Nissan Leaf at 2500+36*200=9700? That's sweet. Any extra payment at the end of 3 years? Do you own the battery?

The leaf is for sale in Belgium at €32-38K.

I assume aetherson is effectively leasing, not buying. So after 3 years you don't own the battery, or in fact the car.

Which is why the relevant comparison point is how much a car you actually buy would drop in price.
